Hmmm.....

Still haven't done anything other than play with the kids in the pool.  Where has this summer gone?

Exercise??

So, after camping from July 5th to August  5th, with a short break in between, we are home.  And probably home for the rest of the summer.  In the short three days before we left for Oregon, I sprained my ankle, and had to use crutches!  For the first few days, the swelling was bad, but by the 5th day or so I could walk without wrapping it and without it swelling like a balloon.
My truck got broken into and my laptop got stolen, along with other more sentimental items.  I just got word that the journals and other papers were recovered by the Lincoln County Sheriff and would be returned after evidence processing.  No luck with the laptop as of yet, so I'm relegated to the basement office to use the computer to do work and blog.
We didn't do quite so much hiking on the Oregon trip, since my foot was out of commission and all.  Since we've been home we've been swimming for fun and that's about it.  I don't exercise when the temp outside is over 90!  Which means, I can maybe do something on Monday... ha ha!
The new school year is starting and I'm working on getting my lesson plans in order.  We are planning on studying dinosaurs as our next big theme, and I'm going to try to take the girls to the Museum of the Rockies again to see the dinosaur bones and displays.
Wow, this post has said nothing about tri training, except I'm not working out...  So, back on topic

I skipped all the local races this year.  I didn't get my bike off the trainer, in fact it hasn't been off the trainer since the last race of last year (over a year now).  I haven't swam race distance since February, haven't attempted to even jog 1 mile...  I feel terrible about the state of my fitness right now, I'm tired all the time, I feel exhausted after the least bit of effort, and I'm just plain lazy.  Once the weather cools off, I'm going to make more of an effort to be active.
