Getting My Act Together??

OK, my knee has been really screwed up, no clue what is going on...a recurrence of my arthritis? What am I 80 years old? I took an 11 day vacation and came back no less refreshed than I started. I got to swim tons and got some helpful tips and practice from my sweetie and my friend. I loved riding my bike to the beach everyday, THAT ROCKED! Unfortunately trying to fit 4 people's agendas into one vacation did not always make it easy to get training in....excuses, excuses, excuses! I got back to work and have had a hard time getting back in the mode and I swear to God if I cannot put down the cancer sticks, I am going to SCREAM!! Do I want to be serious about my goals or not? Do I want to be a triathlete or not? Do I want to reach 40 being fabulous or not? I haven't officially signed up for my triathlon yet...they are expensive by the way. I was going to do the New Jersey Triathlon, but that is in two weeks, I am not sure my knee or my swimming are in shape for that one. I want to do the Iron Girl in Columbia and the Cape Henelopen triathlon in October. I must just plunk down the lettuce and get on with it. Can I rant about one more thing?? It's my blog, why not? I must get the nutrition thing under control. I keep an eye on how many calories I am expending thru my Polar HR monitor, but then I also use it as an excuse to add one more frappaccino. Those days have to end. The other thing is to steer clear of the treats that my sweetie keeps in the house 24-7. M & M's vs. rice cakes...hmmmm. Well every day is a new opportunity to begin again..right. I can do this! I WILL do this I am TRI CHICK WARRIOR!!!!
