	To the finish line with agony and fervor 'cause my dad promised me a cheeseburger

	My thoughts of swimming in the ocean deep, to beat my Dad and make him weep

	From waterfalls to snow-capped peaks, setting sun to leis, why did I have to ride my bike and crash before the race?

	Pithy poem goes here.

	In masks and gowns we haunt the street and knock on doors for trick or treat. Today I am the Fairy Queen, for oh tonight it's Halloween!

	If you want to ride in the Pyrenees, we'll give you some advice for free. You'll find the best cycling if you go, but first click here to see our photos.

	Our box of blue The Fastlane in. It calls to us. The waves begin.

	Yes, we love the Christmas time. Best of all the year. We have waited for it so long. Now, at last, it's here.

	In masks and gowns we haunt the street and knock on doors for trick or treat.

	The stench of chlorine assaulted my nose, crashing into the pool of water below.

	Sharpened pencils, desks all in a row. It's the first day of school and ALL 3 kids must go.

	Our Pez is cool. Our Pez is fun. Our Pez is loved by everyone.

	The Skaggses brought me home today cradled in their arms. They cuddled me and smiled at me, and said I was full of charm.

July 3, 2009 Thankfully, the dust is starting to settle and everyone is adapting to their new schedules. Nicole tried out a few swim teams and clicked with the coach in Solana Beach. Ray seems to really like water polo because he can utilize his swimming skills and actually play a game at the same time. Unlike his older sister, he couldn't follow a black line for more than 30 minutes. As for Renee, well she is just too young to be committed to anything, which is fine by me since if I had to drive to one more place during the week, I'd hang myself.

For the first time since my crash, I got in the pool. My attempt was to get in 2000 yards but I could barely make 1200. Oh well.

Someone left a book at our front door and skidaddled away after knocking. I wish I knew who it was so that I can show my appreciation. Thank you, whoever you are for such a kind gesture.

July 1, 2009 Welcome, July and the TdF! This month, Rob and I celebrate our birthdays...so will Taylor D, lil' Taylor W, and our beloved "Governator."

That feeling of deep fatigue is starting to wane in my legs so I embarked on our new running route. It's not a gut-buster like the one we ran on in Trabuco Canyon but it'll do:
