Week #42 - counting backwards now

I love the warm weather! Not the 90 degree days, but the fall upper 60s lower 70 days. Makes you actually want to do something. This last week I got 3 swim workouts in and survived my first abs class and did the spin class wednesday night. I had a nice long run Thursday night which led to my well deserved day off on Friday. Saturday I did my Christmas shopping and bought stuff to finish up my house work. I spent the rest of the day working on the house and finished that up. House work complete! Only took me a month. Sunday, one of my friends and I rode down to Cumming. Riding outside is way different from the trainer. That ride sucked up all my energy or it was the constant working on my house for the last 2 days. I am sure it was the combination. The bike ride ended up taking us 3 hours. It was really nice out and it was a nice ride. I would love to go running outside tonight and tomorrow if it wasnt going to be dark before I even get off work. Why cant we just take out a couple hours mid-day so that it stays lighter longer at the end of the day. We really dont NEED to work 8 hours a day. I am going to sign up for the Living History Farms race. This year I am chaining all my friends to me so that they can't run up ahead of me and leave me by myself. I bought myself a pair of snow boots this weekend. Now I am kind of excited for it to snow so I can wear them :) I know, I am weird.
