Bagged and wind blown

Yesterday was some windy day, the wind was blowing so hard it blew my stainless steel BBQ over and into my garden, no damage was done to the BBQ or my Tomato's, Whew!

Needless to say I bagged my bike and run yesterday, way to windy.

I ran today but now I'm getting heel pain in my right foot, eek! That's not good, not 9 days before my first stand alone marathon. I've been doing everything to it today from stretching my calf and Achilles, and hydro therapy in the hot tub with the jets massaging my calf heel and foot. and now it's painful to walk on specially at work. So I guess the agenda for this weekend is to rest elevate and ice to give my leg muscles time to relax and maybe ease up on my heal pain.

In the mean time I might get started at building the basement bedroom. I sort of put it on hold for lack of responsibility from my son and his girlfriend not looking for work seriously. I told them I'm not giving ANY FREE RIDES! they have to earn there keep and pay rent and buy food. I haven't taken any rent from them yet because they're not making enough money, but they have enough to buy there own food, yet they are still eating my food!

My son is working but at a temp agency doing factory work and not even full time, so when he's not working he hasn't made any effort to look for a real full time job, or look for another part time job to fill in the gap. He just watches TV or goes out to his friends drinking, meanwhile the girlfriend sleeps in until 9:30-10am because she's up all night watching TV, (but this is better then before, I mention to her that she won't find any jobs watching TV all night and sleeping in to noon or 1pm.) then when she is up, she sits and watches TV or colors all day long expecting a job to pop up out of the blue onto her lap, not realizing she needs to go out the door to find work. She's not going to find full time work anytime soon, so she should be looking for any part job or 2 until a full time job come available.

BUT YOU CAN'T TELL THESE KIDS ANYTHING! THEY JUST HAVEN'T GOT THE MATURITY OR DESIRE TO BE SERIOUS ABOUT LIFE AND LIVING AS AN ADULT!

Well I gave them an ultimatum that starting June 1 they will be paying rent 2 1/2 months is long enough to live free and find some sort of job and it's time to get off there ass's!!

So I figure if i start building they will come......First thing I have to do is move the main water line to run through the joists in the basement where I will be building the bedroom, right now they are over the joist and I can't drywall the ceiling other wise. But this job will be hard as the weekends are cloths washing days and the water is needed, so I'll have to work fast.

Today's training...

Run 30min

and lots of leg stretching.
