Half Way!

Wow...it's July already. This whole year is just flying by. According to my planner today is day 182 and there are 183 left. That means we are half way through 2010. I guess that makes today "hump day", the Wednesday of the calendar year.

So I was checking out the weather forecast for the weekend, after all I am taking a four day weekend and have a race Sunday. I noticed that the National Weather Service has extended the "excessive heat warning" for our area. I really don't know why that don't just issue it a standard one from June to October instead of issuing one, then extending it over and over. So anyways, I actually took a moment to read the warning and it was quite funny. It said things like "stay in the shade as much as possible" and "drink abundant amounts of water". My favorite line was "spend more time in air-conditioned or well-ventilated places". I like how they feel it necessary to point out that you should spend time in air-conditioned places. For me, it's an easy choice.

It is suppose to cool down a little this weekend, to the low 100's which should be really nice.

SF Half-marathon countdown: 23 days 20 hours remaining.

I did order my half-marathon shirt yesterday that will have my number printed on it (so I don't have to use safety pins to hold my number on it) and will have my personalized message. The voter turnout was pretty good percentage wise, but number wise pretty low for what message to put on it. Once I receive it, I will reveal the message so stay tuned.

I hope everyone has a fantastic Fourth of July weekend, stay safe and for those of you within the excessive heat warning area...spend time in air-conditioned places. This coming week will be a busy but fun week. Tomorrow, I got nothing to do all day, followed by Saturday which will take Ethan and I to Home Depot for the Kid's Clinic. Sunday is a race day followed by some type of Fourth of July celebration with the kids. Monday it will be over to Mom & Dad's for some food and swimming and is also Ethan's birthday.
