It's been a while

It's been a while since I posted last. I really hope I get time to do this more. Work has been crazy busy. For three weeks solid I have been working from 7am - 5 or 6pm and then ususally an hour or two at home. I'm getting 100+ emails a day. What in the world am I supposed to do with 100+ emails! I seriously hate email and I seriously hate meetings. The whole time I am in a meeting I'm thinking about how I'm going to respond to the 15-20 emails I received while I was away from my desk. I need to do a little Bad Boys "woo-saaaa, woo-saaa" - there now I feel better!

Sam update - she is 4 months old and she is so much fun. She is smiling back at us and developing more of a personality every day. She rolled over stomach to back for the first time on the day she turned 4 months old. She did it 3 times that day but we haven't seen her do it again since. The past week or so she has been a bit on the grumpy side. I'm not convinced she is totally over the ear infection she came down with a few weeks ago. For some reason she has decided she doesn't need to nap during the day. Seriously, she has been taking 3-4 fifteen minute naps a day over the past week. They have even mentioned she has been a little grumpy at day care. I'll see how she does tomorrow and if little miss grumpy pants doesn't change her tune I'll try to get her in to have her ears checked out again.

Training update - I had a pretty good cold for a week solid so I took it pretty easy last week and the end of the week prior to that. We signed up for our weekend before Thanksgiving cross country run. 7 miles through the woods and creeks in the freezing cold - doesn't that sound like fun! I also need to get my hind end to the pool sometime in the not too distant future. I haven't swam since our last tri at the end of August! Here are my weekly stats for the past couple of weeks:
