Great Week

I've had a few things going on lately and this last week seems to have ended on a high note.

My project at work paid large dividends over Thursday and Friday. I was able to get a couple week's work done in only two days thanks to my design decisions early on in the project. I love it when a plan comes together.

In fitness land, I finally got in both of my midweek runs for my Sun Run training. This was week 4. I'm still disappointed that things kept getting in the way, but I'm very happy that I was able to fit them in this week. I'm already at that point in the training where I'm finding it difficult to hold myself back and not over do it. I'm hoping to expand my route next week to up the distance to 2.8km/1.7mi from 2.2km/1.4mi. It's a small increase, but it should be. I'll expand it the week after that again I think.

And then there's this other project that I've been working on. Let's call it Project With A View. The most recent meeting I had about it was a blast and was a great way to cap off the week.

Actually, that's not quite how I capped off the week. We found a babysitter for Arland and I went out for dinner with my wife. Sorry, Project With a View, the wife wins.

I'll see if I can write up a couple other entries to follow up on some things in the near future. Tie up some loose threads from previous entries.

Talkin' 'bout My Generation

Wow, I had no idea I was part of a generation who's parents have blogs. I just found out this afternoon that my mom has a blog under the name of her business, Bits 'N Pieces. Crazy.

I like the randomness of her first post. She's using it as a companion to her online stores, which she seems to have a lot more of now than I remember her having...

There's knitted and crocheted stuff at her Bits 'N Yarns store at Etsy, her awesome quilting stuff at her Bits 'N Threads store (also at Etsy), and then a Bits 'N Pieces store over at iCraft.ca. All this will keeping her corner of Creative Company full for locals and tourists in Merritt, BC.

So you see, there is very little reason why you don't already own something made by her.

Wonder how long before my dad has one...

Edit: Damn, she's even on Twitter.. I'm not even on Twitter!
