A Not So Great Weekend

With all the construction going on these days at the family abode, the wife and I have been on each other's nerves lately. Its not like there is a major fight, but just a general annoyance at the situation which is being taken out on each other.

Hopefully, today, the ceiling in our kithcen will come down, which can then lead to the plumbing work over the next couple of days.

The boy has been good. He was sick with a fever of up to 101.5 over the weekend. A couple doses of tylenol and he was feeling better. When the temps were still feverish but manageable, we laid off the drugs and are letting his body fight it. Which is working. And very exciting for us, because, we know he is getting stronger. We had a nice dinner last night, after taking Shaan to Toy R Us to get some gifts for his third birthday. H loved it there, and had a great time running around the store. The one thing I wanted to get him - a kid friendly camera, was kind of expensive. I'll see what I can find online.

The training is coming along well. I ran 5.5 miles on Sat. with an unofficial time of 56 minutes and 30 seconds. Felt good afterwards, but on Sunday night, my calf started to tighten up. Still hurting today, so I will take it a little easy on the run today.

I dropped some more weight this week at the weigh in. I am now at 161.8 lbs. Dropped 2.2lbs from last week. Now I am just 1.8 lbs from my target. Woo-hoo.
