What Day is it?

on June 27, 2017

First I started to type Happy Thursday and realized I was ahead of myself. Hopped to Wednesday and realized that we aren’t even there yet.  Wowza. Anyway. Hello, Tuesday!

Just hanging around the house today being productive-ish!

First off, yes…there are swings hanging from the play set! Ken hooked those up for her last night. She didn’t complain.

Today, I worked on the roof in the shop. There are a lot of pieces that go into the assembly. NOTHING comes together. But that’s okay, I’m getting pretty good with power tools 😉 I am stuck at a point where I need another adult. Brooke couldn’t quite keep the sides upright.

There must be a fire somewhere to our West because we have had this icky sky and air all day. My lungs did NOT love that on our ride today.

My goal was to get to bed early last night to ride this morning, but that didn’t happen. Too much grading to get done with a side of our newest show obsession: White Collar. So far so good. With the later night, I opted to roll with the kiddo today. We did just over an hour and I put in some good efforts on the climbs and flats. My legs are currently shot.

The cows don’t seem to mind the yucky air quality. I guess when you just stand and eat all day….I could get around that lifestyle 😉

Random picture of my oregano because I have not killed it yet. Yup, be impressed.

I mentioned to the husband yesterday that I was so hot while I was running my whole 3 miles. OH….anyone doing the Strava #MyMile Challenge?! I threw it into my workout (er, recovery run turned workout) yesterday because I didn’t really know when else to try it. It was 80 degrees and sunny, dusty gravel roads and rolling hills (ran at home) and I was supposed to shoot for a mile PR. Well, with the amazing feeling of death, I was able to sneak in a 6:40 between a warm up and recovery mile for a total of 3. Pretty proud of that time considering the conditions. Pretty sure that is a nice sized PR for me (and I have done about 0 speed work in the last 6 months).

But anyways….pre-tangent….I was complaining that it was hot.

So the husband sent me this….

Touche husband. Cant really complain I guess!

On a random note, the husband is planning a big ride with a group this weekend that culminates at our home. With a BBQ. Time to start planning for that bad boy!!

See ya tomorrow!
