This weekend:
Friday I stopped and got Qdoba on the way home for my pregnant wife. Then I went to 84 lumber to get supplies to fix the tubing for the hot water heater. Then to my parents to get tools, then back to 84 lumber to get the tools I couldn't find at parents. Then to Lowe's to get the supplies I should have got at 84 lumber but which was now closed. We stopped at Panera's and Starbucks while down there (big appetite Friday... think from the sit-ups.) A stranger hugged my wife in Panera because of Canadian paraphanelia (sp).

Then fixed water heater issue at tenant's place. Then watched Hannibal.

Saturday got up and ran 6 miles interval 2/1. Way out of shape 57.5 minutes. Ugh. Sore even. In abs from situps (but sleeping well) and calves. Trying to just run three days a week. Intervals at least twice. Third run either a race/hard tempo or a third interval session.

Then transplanted fig tree and put down weed control mat and mulch. Then bought kiddie pool at big lots. Also went to SayBoys for brekkie. Had home fries and a cinnabun. Took a nap (so tired... from run I guess.) And watched Hannibal. Then started filling up kiddie pool in garage (it's for the fish while I fix a leak). And put down weed control mat/mulch for the apple tree enclosure.

Then went to parents for dinner. Nephew kicked brother-in-law in the groin and he whined he needed to go to the emergency room. Had half a bottle of german wine. So-so. Grilled black bean burgers as everyone else ate a bunch of meat. Sat and talked for quite a while. Came home pretty late...

Sunday, finished editing NRC proposal. Finished filling up kiddie pool. Bought pond supplies online. Wife did her extreme couponing. Visited wife's parents. Tried to go to the garden center but it was closed. Really need to replace some evergreens the deer have destroyed by the pond. Actually wrote a bit of music... Not much. Played cello a tiny bit for first time in over a month (two surgeries set me back). Just can't get cello to go with anything else. Double stops maybe a little better... Lost my favorite Reaper color theme that I've been using the last 5 years. Oh well. Siphoned some water out of kiddie pool into the pond. Watched Hannibal. Wrote a bit. Barely even to 1000 words but it's written as if I was actually trying to get it published. That's new.

And finally cut my hair at home with a number 6 (with some help from wife). Getting really thin up there.

That's mostly it. Some reading. Some internet surfing. Feel like it was a wasted weekend. Keep on meaning to use my telescope. But was cloudy today. And I guess just barely too cloudy Saturday. Next week is a three day weekend. Maybe camping?

Also not sure when exactly.. but finished Theft of Swords by Michael Sullivan. It was a serviceable book. My kind of thing. Characters were a tad light, as was the world. But fantasy fiction with badass heroes. Nice to get back to that. Now somewhat plodding through a book about Bach's Cello Suites. I'll probably be needing more fantasy fiction before I'm finished with that.
