Signs of Spring

Its a little difficult to see, but look closely and you'll catch a glimpse of my tulips coming! I'm so excited to of the sign of warming temperatures. I planted these last fall with some thoughts that my work would be in vain as my gardening skills are quite lacking. After taking this picture I covered them with more leaves to avoid the impending freeze to come so that they WILL soon be enjoyed in their glory!

Tuesday Training Update

Week 6

Monday & Friday: 2.75 Miles
Tuesday & Thursday: Swim
Wednesday: 2 Miles
Saturday: 45-60 min Walk or Bike

I ended last week in unusual fashion with a couple extra bikes squeezed in. With the weather's so beautiful its hard not to get outside and do something! Like right now? I'd rather be outside and I should be doing paperwork. I do need to admit that I missed my swim this morning. I did arrive at the pool at my normal time of 6:25 and as I entered the locker room spotted a towel left overnight on the bench and despite the early hour my brain quickly realized I was without mine. I momentarily contemplated drying off without one and quickly thought otherwise and would need to return home to get one. Its a 10 minute drive...so in the time it took me to get to town, go home and come back that would have been 30 minutes in the car and another 10 back home. Decision made. I would go home and skip the swim today. I will bike later. Promise :)
