Day 9 - Traffic HELL

I have no clue how people can deal with that traffic BS every day. Thankfully for me it won't be forever only for 12 wks or so. Once again we made it to Deerfield in 40 minutes but the ride home took 2 HOURS.. Several accidents and a semi stalled in the middle lane near Schaumburg. Coulda taken 294 home tonight and made the same time...

My legs are still killing me from the workout on Monday. They are ok if I'm moving around but if I sit still for any length of time, I look like a 90 yr old woman when I get moving again. Tonight will be some tylenol PM and early to bed.

George should be on his way home from training in Dallas. I do miss him when he is gone.. For some reason I just don't sleep right, I wake up several times during the night. tonight I should sleep soundly since he'll be home soon.

Took Colin to the pet store. He has been elected to buy fish for science class. Only problem is we have no way to keep them alive until morning.. We have no tank here at home and they can't stay but a couple of hours in the bag from the pet store. He was a bit discouraged but I told him to talk to his teacher tomorrow, explain what the gentleman told us at the store, and hopefully even though school is closed Friday for Veteran's day, maybe a janitor could let us in to put the fish in the tank. Otherwise I have no idea how we can do this. Unless he can hold off getting them till nxt week. They are off school Thurs/Friday for conferances, so we could get them in the morning before we go to Deerfield?

So workout today was arms/shoulders:
