On The Run???? - 2/7/9

Drat. I should have dressed differently.

Things to do this weekend:

Saturday:
- Run
- Mind the wee-one while wife is at work

Sunday:
- Church

Either / or:
- Spend half a day at the office
- Spend AT LEAST half a day on yard work
- Hang with some friends that we really need some hang time with
- Spend half a day doing house-hold paperwork

In case anyone is counting, that is 3 days worth of activities and two days to do them in. And it's raining.

The plan was to get up early today, go for a run and have the car back in time for the wife to go to work. I could do paperwork today while watching the youngin and then we could hang with pals after the wife got off work. Church tomorrow morning followed by yard work tomorrow afternoon. Which . . . still leaves half a day at the office . . . . so maybe church would have to get the axe once again.

I woke up this morning at 3am and it was dumping buckets outside. I am pretty sure I heard the neighbors laying out the plans for a 21st century Ark . . . .

"What are you going to do? . . . ." the wife mumbled . . .

"Go to the office this morning, run after you get home - then off to the friends . . . "

"What about tomorrow? . . . ."

"Let's deal with today first . . ."

I was up and moving - 3:30am on a rainy Saturday . . .

I pulled on some flannel PJ pants, a long sleeve T, laced up the sneakers and mashed a cap on my badly-need-a-haircut-head.

PJ's at the office? Its 4am! Who is gonna know????

Well. Now it is 7:30 and I am done with my work at the office. I have two hours before I need to have the car back home and it is only lightly raining . . . I could totally do my run RIGHT NOW except that I am wearing 3 yards of FLANNEL and would end my run looking like a drowned rat trying to hold it's sopping pants up . . . .

So back home, watch the wee one whilst doing paperwork - maybe a run and yard work after the wife is off . . . but it will probably be too dark and wet for yard work, which pushes it to tomorrow . . . when I don't have time . . . .

How long until Monday??

These weekends really need to be three days long . . . . but just for me . . . that way I have time to catch up with everyone else . . . .
