haven't been around much...
Well... It's been a while since I posted here on LJ. I've been extremely busy with work. And also my triathlon training I've been posting on Biginnertriathlete.com, however you have to have an account to view any logs there.
I haven't been training since August - did my last sprint triathlon then. since then I've been slacking off... and as of today I am going for surgery on my left knee - arthroscopy with possible meniscal repair. I've also had tendonitis in my R ankle, and just go orthotics.
Next year the plan is to do my firth 1/2 ironman. Sylvan Lake I think. I have 2 months to rehab from my surgery before training starts.
I'm also still trying to lose weight... down to 149... but I have a target of 130-135 for race season, which means I have to get tough with myself and actually follow my diet plan!
With work, I'm now in my second year of practice. I've joined a call group at the hospital for maternity care, so I"m not on call all day everyday. I'm now on anywhere from 3-10 shifts a month. It is working well. I'm also doing one weekend a month covering hospital in patients - doing my first weekend of that later this month.
The family is good, Rob and I just got back 2wk ago from the Dominican Republic - went for a 2 wk holiday. Very hot but overall good. The boys, now age 5 and nearly 12 are not with us as often, we now have a more normal custody arrangement, which works better. They started lacrosse last year and will be going again in the new year.
Well that's it for me! I have to leave in an hour to go to the hospital for my surgery!
