It's been a while

I ran today!  Kinda.  It's amazing how quickly you can lose your endurance when you don't run for 6 weeks AND don't cross train either.  Plus my knee did hurt a little (it wasn't bad) so I decided to go slow and walk a bunch just to be safe.  Nothing I'm worried about.  Just a little tight.   I have 11 weeks until my next half.  I'll be able to pick it back up just fine.  Today's pace was a joke.  And really I can't count that as running today.  More like walk/jog. 

Our bathroom is being remodeled and the guy doing it is just so slow and he really doesn't do the best job.  I mean he does a good enough of a job.  But the stuff he does is just okay...like using drywall in the shower instead of greenboard which is much better for wet areas (or so I've been told by friends and the interwebs).  This house is owned by my grandma and we rent from her.  I tried really hard to talk her out of having him do the remodel.  I knew it needed to be done.  There's water damage on the walls and sub-floor.  I tried to first talk her out of it completely and then talk her into letting me find someone else.  But she's totally sold on him.  And he's nice enough and it will look really nice when he's done.  Yes I'm trying to convince myself. But .... gah.

Work is good - I like the job.  Pretty stressful right now with tons of crap going on.  But I do like being busy so it fits me well.

I got new glasses that I hate.  Yup.  They give me headaches and I'm having difficulty focusing on things. I hope I adjust.  Or I need to just suck it up and go get that stupid surgery I keep putting off.  :)  $$   Which will then, hopefully, allow me to get Lasik.  More $$.

I close with this - Intelligent people have more zinc and copper in their hair.  No wonder my hair is so heavy.
