This is what a morning workout SHOULD feel like!

Got up on time, got to the gym early, did 35 minutes of intervals on the eliptical (first 17 minutes at 1 minute intervals and last 17 at 2 minute intervals) and then distroyed my abs for about 15 minutes... had about 10 minutes to spare so what the hell I threw in four sets of smith squats at 50 lbs (20 reps per set) and headed into the showers sweaty and glowey and buzzing.

I have two thoughts on my mind right now, the first is that my inlaws come on friday for a week to visit with the kiddos... (this is a good thing, Mike and I take FULL advantage whenever one or the other sets of grandparents show up) so I need to get to work cleaning the house; and the second is that I turn 30 in just about 4 months. Now it is a well known tradition that women are supposed to do somthing wild and crazy on their 30th birthday... go to vegas with the girls... get drunk and go dancing with the girls... pick up a hot italian guy in a bar and end up in his flat in Soho... whatever... it's almost like a second batchelorette party (or first for those who are still single) but seriously... I have no desire to do that kind of stuff. My favorite traveling partner is Mike, we have a lot of fun together, and I feel like I don't get to spend enough time with him and the kids anyway, so taking another solo trip just doesn't appeal.

I'm thinking what I'd really love is to spend a few days at the beach with my kids... it's the weekend after the Triathlon this year and that would be a lot of fun for everyone I think... I don't know... maybe Mike will surprise me (should I hold my breath???) heh.

In any case, those are the things I am pondering today... that and the stark reality that is our own personal mortality... but that's a whole other entry all together.
