Hey everyone!
Yeah, I know, long time NOT blogging. It's just that time of year, things to do, people to see, dog to entertain! Most of which don't include much exercise at all!
As I write this right now, Rexy is chewing on the chair that I am sitting, nipping at my feet when she forgets what is what. She is doing pretty well, growing like a weed, and almost as annoying as some some days! I don't know how many of you know, but 2 weeks after we got her our landlord called and said that even though she said it was ok, we had to have condo board approval before we were allowed to have a pet in the building. If you know me, you know I get pretty anxious about stuff like that and it drives me crazy not knowing. So for the last 2 weeks I have wondering where we are going to live and what we can afford if we don't get approval. The good news is, tonight we got approval! Whew, one problem gone! We got her licence in the mail today too, which is also good! She has a vet appointment for her twelve week shots this week, then all should be settled down for a while with her!
Christmas is coming fast. I thought I would get ahead and get presents taken care of early this year, but as it turns out, I am going to be running around on Christmas eve, AGAIN! Typical guy, I guess. We headed up to Edmonton this past weekend to see Leslie's family, which was great! The roads were pretty brutal with this cold, but we did get lots of visiting done too!
As for workouts, it's been just swimming. Things with Greg on Wednesdays are advancing well, and a couple of weeks ago I went with Darryl on a Sunday and I did my time trials to see how fast my 2oo m was. Last year in the triathlon I did it in 6 minutes and 38 seconds, on that Sunday I averaged between 4.30 and 4.40. that is over 2 minutes off in 2 months! I want to get it down to about 3 minutes before May! Do-able, I think so!
I got a good week off of work next week, so it will be a good chance to relax. Not much plans for Christmas, just heading to my parents house for a good chunk of time. I am going to the Flames/Sens game on the 27th, and that is about it. I am fish sitting my cousins shark too, so that will keep me occupied!
Gotta go, Rexy is getting into something! Have a great Christmas!!!
The Grizzster!

Nice to hear about the doggy permission. :)
