Weekend Update

I feel like I should say, what weekend?

I got back from Baton Rouge Friday night after a mixed success day.  I got the case resolved, but not on the terms I envisioned.  But it's nice to cross it off the books, especially since defense counsel was costing an arm and a leg. 

Saturday's schedule (yoga-brunch-volunteer-friend over) looked like this:

7:30-9:00 Bikram yoga

9:15-9:40 home, shower, change

9:45-11 brunch with a friend

11-11:45 home, unpack suitcase, begin repacking for this week's trip

12-2 volunteer

2-2:45 errands

3-3:30 straighten up house

3:30-6 friend over (see photos), start cooking dinner and puzzle

6:30 hubby home, dinner, tv, early to bed.

And just so I have it documented somewhere, this past weekend (July 12-13) was the first time we officially hit 100 degrees!  Insanely lucky, this is perhaps the latest it's been since I've been paying attention. 

Sunday's schedule (race-yoga-Chinese-church) looked like this:


6:15 leave house to go to race


6:30 meet friends at race


6:45 run a couple warm-up miles with friends


7:30-9 race


9-9:45 hang out at race waiting for beer tent to open at 10 (then decide it's not worth another 15 minutes for a Miller Lite anyway, given how the rest of the day looks, and decide to head home), while hanging out with friends and attempting to cool off


10-10:15 change clothes


10:30-12 Bikram yoga


12:15-1 eat lunch, shower, change


1-4:30 Chinese class


5-6 puzzle, cook dinner


6:30 hubby home, dinner


7:10 leave house, gas up car, drive to church


7:30-8:45 church


9:00 bed


So yeah, what weekend?  Haha, oh well, it was just very busy, almost no down time, but it was all stuff I wanted to do so I really shouldn't complain.

There was an obvious highlight to the weekend, below are three progress pictures.  750 pieces, and all that's left is crap leaves and dark tree/rock. 

This morning had two notable happenings.

First, I found out I got an AG at the race yesterday, which is funny because I didn't even stay for awards since my time was so sucky. 

Second, I twisted my ankle at boot camp on my very last frog leap.  Yow.  It hurt a lot for about two hours and it looks a tiny bit swollen now, but it seems to be better than it initially felt.  I might take it easy for a couple days just to make sure it shakes out okay. 

It figures, this would happen right as a "summer cold front" is coming.  All I can say is that cold front better not bypass me (since I'm going to be working in Philly), and my ankle better be healed up so I can enjoy a glorious cooler run or three.
