Much information

I haven't updated in a while. Over a month. So much for my "once a week" promise. Well shortly after my last post I became the victim of a violent assault. I had gone swimming the Wednesday before July 4th. Then decided to go Karaoking. Something I did once a week. It seems that something had been put into my drink and whoever poured me into a car and dropped me off seems to be the main suspect. I do not remember much about the attack but seem to be dealing with it so-so. There are other worries on my mind just now that is pushing it all far into the back of my mind. I am just trying to move on and get other things sorted out like being served papers for failure to pay a medical bill. It might have to go to court but if that's the case I'll deal with it like a big girl.

My parents were here for 3 weeks in July too. We had a great time! Drove them all over the place. Mt St Helens, Canada, downtown...everywhere! It was sad to let them go, I so much wanted to go with them back to Scotland. Alas, not to be.

My training took a back seat and I feel I gained a bit of weight. But now that it's August my training is back on track and I'm following an 8 week Olympic plan as much as I can. I tell you what though, I cannot state enough just how much I love having Friday's off! It makes such a difference to everything!

Last event I did was a 2.4 mile swim. 1.2 of it I didn't swim. My goggles broke. Utter pants. I just wasn't feeling it either. Part of the the emotional cycle I guess. Still, 1.2 is good enough.

Next event is a 1.5 mile swim across Lake Washington. I am SO very much looking forward to that, but 1st I need goggles! Giant bloody goggles at that. Looking at some Aqua Sphere ones!
