See ya in a week

My brother and sis fly in tomorrow afternoon for 6 days.  I’m sure it will be jam packed with lots of activities.  It will be interesting to see the dynamic of having the whole crew together at once.

Yesterday during the day Ali put my mower repair to the test mowing the area around the house.  She said it worked well.  I planned to follow up by weed whacking after work but constant rain washed those plans away.

Since this will be my last gym visit for roughly a week, I plan to do another 300, the second one in three days.  I NEVER have attempted doing a second 300 with only one day in between.  I figure it will be good prep for the 1500.  My chest is sore as hell from the combination of Monday’s 300 and doing chest/back yesterday, this will be interesting.

I am taking all of tomorrow off even though everyone doesn’t show up until later in the afternoon.  During the day tomorrow I want to shampoo the carpet so it is nice and spiffy for our company.

So Brett Favre actually reported to Green Bay and now it seems that he officially will not be playing for them.  The only question that remains is where he will wind up.  I really think he has come out of this looking like a spoiled diva.  It’s like he thinks the Packers should have known that he wasn’t serious when he announced his retirement and should have not made plans to move forward without him.  It really makes no sense.  So now at 38 years old he instead will find himself thrown onto another team with a new system in a foreign environment.  I’m sure he will have a big chip on his shoulder all season although I don’t really feel it is justified. To me it is akin to quitting your job and then getting pissed off that your employer doesn’t welcome you back if the grass isn’t greener on the other side.  Tough shit, it’s a risk you take.
