Swimming

Another day

September 18, 2008 by D. Gardner Leave a Comment

I was able to swim and do a little running.  Installed wordpress on my local machine.  don’t know why I haven’t done that before.  It was easy now I am going to have to set it up to show people for examples  and more testing.

Then I ran out of time and had to quit.  Maybe tomorrow.  Lucky me, I can swim outside so I am getting a bit of a tan.  But the weather is turning colder here in Austin, the water was perfect for swimming.  We’ll see how long I’ll be able to swim in the unheated pool.

In's and out's of my days

September 13, 2008 by D. Gardner Leave a Comment

Today I awoke early and began my day by watching a bit of news on the Internet to see how hurricane Ike was moving. It was slamming into the Texas coast near Galveston and Houston. The poor folks down there.
I am currently in Austin Texas and none of the effects of the Category 2 hurricane were felt in Austin. My sister-in-Law Jenny and here two daughters Haley and Avery. Have been living without power since 6AM this morning It’s now 8:30PM. We should be praying for them now. I guess a tree fell down in their yard. Daniel Anderson, her brother and I may head down next week-end to help clean up the tree.

I have been attempting to sell a couple of web site services over the past week. I have got some leads but haven’t closed any deals yet. I’ve got to work on my closings this week.

I talked to Amanda today after Paige’s soccer game. I guess the coach blamed Paige for something she didn’t do and Amanda was pretty upset about that. Emerson was also very demanding of Amanda’s attention during the game. I haven’t been home for almost three weeks now and that is taking it’s toll too on her state of mind. I think like us all when we have a bit of a bad day everything seems to look worse. On days like that hope and faith are tough.

Yesterday I swam 3600 meters before I started getting cramps in my feet and had to stop. I did feel a whole lot better than the swim I had on Wednesday of only 1500 meters. I believe it was because I got a good nights rest the night before.

I think I’m getting in better shape now.
