The view from my patio table.
The view straight up.
In other random thoughts...
- Potatoes at night before bedtime seem to be a good thing. I'm cautiously optimistic, and it cracks me up to eat a potato like an apple (I boil small red potatoes with the skin) in front of my family. :)
- Got a 30 pound kettlebell today. I have a 36 pounder (16 kg) and a 44 pounder (20 kg) but I like having an in between weight. Right now I can get through both of my main AOS workouts using only the 12 kg, and that means it's time to go heavier, right?
- My kid is 16 years old today! He's at Warped Tour in Marysville with a bunch of friends. It feels great to have a kid who is doing so well that you can LET him skip school to go to a concert (after a huge lecture about the importance of school, of course!).
- Tim needs to get commissions on P90X, as he's turned a bunch of friends onto this workout. I still do the DVDs with him from time to time, but distance running and kettlebells are more my workout of choice.
- Speaking of running, I'm signed up for TWO races on Labor Day weekend. On Saturday Tucker and I will be doing the Mather Mud Run, a 5 mile run with obstacles and the infamous mud pit. Then on Monday I'll be doing a 10 mile trail race in Auburn that includes the "is this ever gonna stop?" climb up Stagecoach.
- Now that I'm running more consistently my legs feel slightly sore and VERY strong and that feels great!

Happy birthday to your 16 year old son! You do NOT look old enough to have a 16 year old son! Will he be driving soon or will he wait a bit?
Have a wonderful weekend
You cna be very proud of how you are pushing yourself physically right now, as you're always an inspiration in everything you do.
Take care and best wishes.

Happy birthday to your handsome boy, and I hope he had a great time at the concert (you're such a nice mom!).
I love eating potatoes like that...funny yes ;)
Justin does the P90X all the time with his friends and loves it! We were fortunate enough to know someone who can crack the code to the DVD's so I was able to get a copy...shhhh LOL
How fun to get a new kb...I think an in-between size is perfect.
