Sick & Fishing
Well, I was sick at the beginning of the week. Over did it a bit with running and ended up home for a couple of days.
No running, gym or work. I went back to work on Wednesday, and then was able to run and workout on Thursday. Which is good
that I was feeling better since I had the deep sea fishing trip on Friday! Friday night we left San Diego at 10pm and as we
slept in the bunks (my husband, oldest daught and parents went along with 10 other people), the night captain sailed through
a storm. It was so rocky that some people got very sick and couldn't be up and about much the next day. But the next day was
beautiful and the crew on the boat was very helpful! Through the whole day we all ended up catching one fish (well, all in
my family). My Dad got pretty sick though. He slept through the first fishing session (when I caught my fish) and I went down
and got him when my Mom had a fish on the line. He was up for most of the fishing after that! And I think each of us lost
at leasts one fish on the line, with Dee losing 2 or 3! But it was a great time and I have a couple of pictures here to post!
Jim, Dee and myself holding our fishes!

Oh, and I've been working on that sweater during football!! And I think I'm ready to start a new one with a friend of
mine. Just to pick the color of yarn and buy it! And, I'm ready to do another small project as well. See what happens when
the weather cools down!

Knitting
I finally did some knitting! Football started this week and that usually brings out a project or two for me. And, I brought
out my old Christmas/Valentines sweater. I finished the back and made some good progress on the front. So, while my fantasy
teams did just okay (I've lost one, won one, and waiting to hear on the third), I did great on my knitting!

Busy Two Weeks
The last two weeks have been very busy!! Work is going nuts - but we do have our new person, and (knock on wood) her training
is going really well. It's letting me concentrate now on more of my job which is really helpful. But, it's a busy time of
year and in about two weeks it will slow down to our normal Fall pace. At home it's just been hot. Okay, at work too, especially
when the air near my desk isn't working that good. But it's going to get well over 100 degrees today. And when I finished
my run at 8am this morning it was already 82! I drank more water on my run than I'm used to (okay, more Propel), so my stomach
was a bit off - but not too bad. Reading is going slow, I'm still doing more puzzles. And football starts next week! I'm in
three fantasy leagues. One I manage (we do our draft on Monday), one public league (who knows when they'll do the draft) and
a Monty Python league (draft today)! I've already bought my stat-tracker and I'm ready for next weekend!!!
