Whew, That's Done!!!

• Just finished my first consulting project for a church starting a coffee shop that operates five days a week in addition to being open on Sundays.  It was a great learning experience and a lot of work and a lot of fun.
• I have been working 55+ hours a week between all three of my jobs for the last several weeks.  It is weird to be done with something that has taken so much time and energy over the last 2 1/2 months.
• There has not been a "Fresh New Start" update in a couple of weeks.  I will update you when I weigh in at the Dr. on September 2.  Exercise has been spotty over the last couple of weeks, but I have still been much more active than my old "norm."  I have to get back on my healthy eating plan.  Crazy work hours and busy life have made it tough, but I am into lifestyle change for the long haul.  My original goal was 50 lbs. lost in 3 1/2 months and I think I will actually accomplish 35 lbs., possibly a little more.  I plan to really buckle down over the next month and be a really good boy with exercise and eating before heading to Disney.
• I start following my official half marathon training plan September 1.  My goal is to run half and walk half!  I am very excited!
• Actually I have three goals: 1. Don't die (during training or the race)  2.  Finish the race  3.  Don't be last.
• If you are really slow, PLEASE sign up to run with me on December 5, so I can make sure Goal #3 is doable provided I don't die and finish the race! :)
• We had a birthday celebration for Alison last night at The Melting Pot.  Great fun.
• We drove home in a huge storm last night and I lost a contact lens.
• Since I have an old prescription, I have to visit the eye dr. tomorrow.
• Hope to have new contacts before going to Disney World!!!
• We leave for Disney in 29 days!!!
• Football season is right around the corner and that is a beautiful thing!!!
• Brett Favre just retired again...trust me, oh wait, he unretired again!  
• I have the most amazing wife and daughter on the planet!
• I am SO grateful for wonderful friends and family!
• Getting a new netbook computer that will hopefully help me write more regularly sometime next week!
• Will blog about my consulting project by early next week
• Have a great day
