I find that the little things, when viewed in the end result, are not so little. A little lie, a little extra dessert, a little thing forgotten; The butterfly effect perhaps? My week was filled with little things that, in and of themself, weren't a big deal, but the cumulative effect was awesome in its damage! lol. All things, well... most things, can be fixed; As with my confluence of disaster. There is always another day, week, effort, attempt, etc; A great end to a tumultuous time, says I!
One of my dearest friends is on a Scotland/Ireland trip right now and, as if I needed any further prompting, has me realizing just what I've been missing. Time to get my kit in order and make that trip happen. I would dearly love to go in 2012, but between the two Army schools that I have tried (and succeeded) to get, the Tough Mudder, and my two vacations planned (oh..and work), it'll have to wait until 2013. Now...Tough Mudder IS advertising an Ireland 2013 venue. Hmmmmmmm.
My running, weights and, especially, pull ups are coming along GREAT! I should be right where I need to be by January, and most definitely by race time. The goal is to finish, but to finish strong (especially for the old guy, both in school as well as in T.M.) would really kick some ass.
I love the Fall....running, smelling the crisp air, feeling the rain, and being able to wear long sleeves! lol. Makes me yearn for my wonderful Boston. Great times.
