Thursday

Busy day.  Participated in the PRB by phone from home, and then continued in the car while taking Bailey to her orthodontist appointment.  Prepped for CND/Reliability meeting while at the ortho, then took Bailey with me to work where she hung out in my office while I conducted my meeting.  After that, got in a short session of racquetball with Robert, took Bailey to the cafeteria for lunch, back to the office to wrap up emails, then to the dance store in Encinitas to spend $400 ...$400!!!...on necessary dance items for her summer intensive program.  Then home again where I finished up work remotely.

Decided at the last minute to meet Kelly and gang at RBHS for an evening jog.  Finally met her friend Robert and also a new Rock Runner, John. Leah was out of town. The four of us did the 5-mile loop together.  It was good.  Talked with the others the whole time, keeping HR below 140 (except on the hills), and worked on springy, midfoot strike in the new K-Swiss.  Even though the pace was slow, it was a good workout for the legs. 

Ate Pei Wei leftovers and too much candy (peanut M&Ms and Swedish fish) while playing "Apples to Apples" and "Mad Gab" in family game night.  Now it's time for bed, but I have to get Bailey's iPod tunes up to date before she leaves, so I'll either do that tonight or early tomorrow.

She and Joan leave around 2PM tomorrow for Las Vegas and then NYC on Saturday.  Joan comes home on Wednesday.  Quin and I will be a household of 2 for the weekend.  We've got Kobey's, Toy Story 3, Lake Miramar, Knott's Berry Farm, Saturday night movie in the park, and Stir Fresh lined up for the weekend.  It'll be a good bonding Father's Day weekend for us.
