the latest in my life is me frantically preparing for my mini-triathlon in 2 WEEKS!
boy did this one sneak up on me.. dang it.  i went swimming this morning and almost drowned.  maybe the wetsuit will be buoyant enough to keep me afloat.. 

me and my new goggles:

and i need to figure out how to wear my swimcap...  it popped right off my head!  maybe i have too much hair but those things are supposed to be one size fits all i think.  tomorrow i try taking the bike out for a spin.. hope i have better luck than lisa on her bike. hehe.

in other news.. i have a new job!!!! woot woot!  i know, most of you will say it's long overdue, and i would have to agree.. but God is awesome and so far it seems like the most perfect opportunity for me so i'm just so grateful..  and it happened so quickly there was no time to stress out...  life is great.

by the way, the birds are back.. trying so hard again to build that darn nest above the neighbor's doorpost (they've given up on mine thank goodness) .. when will they learn?
