busy business.

I have become a slacker again.  That's okay.

I have a week and 4 days off from work, but I have so much to catch up on I feel like it's going to go by fast.  I originally planned to go on a vacation but that didn't pan out.  I'm bitter happy that it worked out this way.

I'm in the process of finding a house to rent so my little Dexter boy will have a yard to play in and I can hopefully get another dog for him to keep him company.

My running has not been as good as I would like.  With the weather being 100+ degrees everyday, the only time I can effectively run is early in the morning.  There are two problems with that; one being that I'm NOT a morning person, and the second is that when I am up that early it's because I just finished a 12 hour shift and I'm pretty exhausted.  I'm hoping to still do the half marathon in September, but if not then the Route 66 Half is definitely on!

I have started rowing with my hospital's corporate rowing team.  My friend has done it for a few years now and she loves it.  It's a really good workout and you use your legs and back more than I thought.  I'm excited to really get into it... although there is a tiny part of me that fears I may be like this lady:
