Saturday morning

It's 6am and I am ready to head out the door for my final 10 mile training run for the upcoming Sacramento marathon next Sunday, 12/6. I am happy my recent marathon training is near its end yet nervous. I have trained hard and well these past few months and hope it will all come together for me!

Today's schedule is to start preparing the house for Christmas now that Thanksgiving has passed quietly. Somehow, the past few days have been a blur for me. Gotta go!

Door busters at the Doctor's office

First patient at the local clinic on black Friday! Exciting? Jody has been fighting a flu for 6 days now :(

It turns out that Jody got Pneumonia. She's on some heavy antibiotics for the next 5 days.

Sick Jody

Jody has been sick for the past 4 days with a high fever :( Please get well, Jody. Your sisters are so jealous that you got to watch movies all day long.

Typical Sunday!

Hmmmm... We went to Chinese School this morning without Jody since she got sick yesterday with a fever. Then we came home after Chinese School, had lunch, and started on Chinese homework. Never a dull moment! Christine said the benefit of doing homework on Sundays is to make sure we have time to do more homework during weekdays. Why do Sundays seem like Mondays? What do you think?

On my way home!

Full flight on a Friday afternoon.

Internet dinner with my family

I am having dinner with my family across the Internet. Unfortunately, I am eating hotel food and they are eating leftovers.

Big meetings for the next few days

This is what I have to look forward to for the rest of the week. Exciting?
