The triathlon went well today. The results will be posted by Tuesday. My friends and I had a great time doing the race and enjoying chit-chat and smoothies post-race. Later in the day I went to yoga to stretch and it felt great.
Matt made some seriously awesome deep-dish pizza, Chicago style, for dinner tonight. My compliments to the chef.
Matt heads to Mexico (once again) tomorrow. The travelling is better than the alternative: living in Mexico for the duration of the launch. So, we hang in there!

WooHoo! I made some PHAT cash with the garage sale! It took two loads to get all the stuff over to Lynette's house, but only one load plus a few miscellaneous items to get it home! Erin's closet has never looked so empty. It was a little bittersweet selling the kids' old things.
Tomorrow morning is the triathlon and I'm ready for it. I want to beat my score from last year. Three friends and myself are in the same heat, making for a super fun time. I'll post tomorrow after I race. I'll have to check, but I think the results will be available by Tuesday.

Matt will be working in Mexico the week that I wanted the family to take the Chicago trip. Don't worry, though! We're just postponing it until summer vacation. It'll be a pretty affordable family trip.
Tomorrow is AJ's turn to bring the snack to school and, once again, I'll send something healthy. AJ said that some kids throw away their fruit. Don't fault me for trying! It'll be cut up melons and yogurt smoothies. AJ and Erin like those things, so I figure it can't be horrible. I don't force it down their throats and they don't die after eating it!
Sunday's the LifeTime Fitness Indoor Triathlon. I'm excited!
Yesterday it was cold, but sunny. The kids and I played outside. Erin got too cold and came in to hang with Matt. Meanwhile, AJ and I played soccer for an hour in the front yard. He suprised me with the amount of coordination he had with running and kicking.
I'm participating in a garage sale on Saturday at a friend's house. I've organized all the kids' old clothes and baby items to sell. I hope some of that can be used toward a triathlon bike-fingers crossed!

Sheesh!
Every time Matt goes to Mexico for an extended trip, someting expensive breaks: a car window, this time it was the laptop. DOA at the repair shop. So we did get another computer and are up and running again.
The kids are doing their kids things-fighting, laughing, teasing, being cute for mom, and being nice to each other when I'm not looking. Erin's started correctly counting things and AJ is , of course, still in love with Young 5s.
Matt's in Mexico this week, returning Saturday. At this point he's still employed and that's a blessing.
Tomorrow night the kids have a sleepover at G&G Wolski's house. I'm going out to celebrate a friend's birthday with dinner in Royal Oak followed by hijinks at Boogie Fever. I've proposed a spring trip for the family and this week while Matt's away I'm calculating costs and time in a spreadsheet. Hopefully it's a relatively inexpensive trip. I'm thinking two nights, bringing our bikes for transport around town, and bringing a cooler of sandwich stuff to curb costs. I figure one dinner a day at a restaurant. I'd like to go to the Shedd Aquarium, LegoLand and Navy Pier. I'll keep you posted on what we decide.
Fingers crossed!
