What did you do today?

[DaveSkater]

I'm on another forum and a post with this same title just surpassed 300,000 views. It's by far the most active thread on the entire site. YRMV. Its as much of a training log as it is a confessional.

So, I'll start:

Today: 1 hour of intense skating in the bowls at Hoffman Action Park in the 30mph wind.
I don't keep Heart Rate data, but it was pumping.

Custody trial this morning with a young mother who was having her 7 year old search the father's home (where daughter lived) for drugs. After that, I waited around for two hours off the clock to congratulate one of my 14 year olds who just learned she was getting ONE LAST CHANCE to avoid being sent to the Wilderness program (bootcamp). I got lots of hugs and kisses out of that one. I suggested a "nomoretatoos" clause in the court order but they didn't go for that. Got a grin from the kid, though. Stopped off at Taco Bell on the way back to the office and spent the afternoon catching up on calls and e-mails, and drafted an Order for the Custody case. Played with the new puppy. A good day.

My day is going to sound boring to some people, but it is actually fun to me....most of the time.

Troubleshot an oilfield failure for a mud pulse telemetry problem. Found out the field operators should never have used the tool the second time after pulling it out for precautionary reasons the first time. Cleaned my office.....finally. Emailed my fourth grader pen pal on In2books.com about a book he picked out for us to read and discuss.

Had some kind of microwave chinese thing.

Analyzed a Gamma tool for proper operation. More troubleshooting, collecting data, and analyzing data. Screwed around with Excel 2007, which is really frusterating me by the way. When converting my CSV file to excel the date/time turns to seconds. Then after correlating the time with memory data, the excel graph puts some odd date and time on the chart.

Now for the best part of the day....I get to go pick up my toddler, let him ride his bike (yay for warm days), and visit with my husband, who will be cooking me some kind of wonderful supper (yay for male cooks).

*Edit* Was this only supposed the be about health and fitness type stuff?

[dmoor82]

[PennyQuilts]

Dear Diary...

Did some intervals on the Stepmill for 30 minutes early this morning. Went to work (consisted of driving to three different hospitals/surgical centers). Came home & studied. Plan on going back to gym in a bit to workout. Oh, stopped by and surprised my girlfriend at work (another hospital) with a Frappucino.

[Bostonfan]

Woke up at 5:30. Got a 30 min run in on the treadmill. Did a few crunches, then fixed a nice breakfast. Went to work. Worked a little. Ran some errands. Got home, ate some dinner. Watched a little AI. Going to do the same tomorrow, sounds fun doesn't it?....

[nik4411]

It doesn't hurt when I'm just sitting here, only when I try to move around. I've never been on crutches before so it's a bit awkward. Oh well, I'll be good soon. (I hope).

Sounds like a blast Boston...whats AI?

I assume that AI is American Idol...

Morning: woke up around 3:15 am, thought about exercising, thought better, put on a pot of coffee, and went internet surfing.

Late Morning/Afternoon: finally going to start sorting through and cataloging my collection of Blues Albums.

Evening: headed to Phoneix Arizona to watch my son race this weekend

[PennyQuilts]

Woke up at 5:00. Took the new puppy out to the backyard. Ate cheese. Thought about exercising. Didn't. Wrote several letters/e-mails to lawyers and parents of my GAL kids. Now I am getting ready for court this afternoon. Russian adoption gone bad. If anyone asks, please, please, please do not adopt a baby from one of those Russian orphanages. The poor things are frequently so damaged that they end up being abandoned by the most well intended adoptive parents back here in the states. Horrible, heartbreaking cases

Yesterday was more exciting.

American Idol. Not sure why, but I'm hooked. Probaby due to not having any sports on other than basketball. Come April though, it's all about the Sox. Hope you get well soon...

Up at 3 AM, 30 minutes of WII Fit (10 minutes Yoga, 10 minutes strength, 10 minutes advanced step). Checked email, showered, at work by 5 AM.

Filed 3 grievances, prepared an oral reply and an arbitration brief. Listened to conference call about disaster relief, attended two new employee background investigations. Ate pizza for lunch while reading email. After brisk walk around Galleria parking lot read and responded to email, returned 12-15 calls, finished brief for tomorrow's hearing.

Left office at 3:30, more WII bowling, now contemplating dinner, watching DVR'd shows, bed by 8-ish.

Dang - I never put a whole day down before!

Up at 7:45, stopped by Clark's bakery for donuts, at the office by 8:30 (yes I am a girl and I get ready really, really fast) staff meeting til 9:30, prepared financials and tax returns until lunch, had a 15 minute lunch at 12:45, did another set of financials and tax return, some 1099s for someone who was really late getting me the information, took the deposit to the bank, another tax return, dinner out, back at the office started another tax return until I couldn't think, checked the personal e-mail and this site for any fun news and will finish the tax return when I finish this post. Go home and watch Channel 114 until 1:30 and I wind down and get up and do it again tomorrow, and the next day, and the day after that, etc, etc until April 14th. Does anyone want to trade me jobs?

Yesterday: No exercise other than a brisk walk across OSU's campus delivering a bid. Lots of driving, and work.

Today: 3 bids going out, and maybe, just maybe I'll get to roll Hoffman skatepark at 3:00pm.

Visitation tonite at the ULS Skatepark. Should get a nice 2 hour roll then for sure.

That will teach me to read backwards! I read the last sentence first and thought (2 hours??!!)

[DaveSkater]

Yup, from 5:30 to 7:30. Rolled nicely (what I call skating)
I'd have like more, but homework and baths are in order.

Tomorrow 2 hour outdoor roll at Hoffman!

[PennyQuilts]

Got up at 4:30. Took the puppy out. Worked on my blog. Took some pictures of the dogs. Some turned out. Worked at home on reading documents and letters, made a few phone calls. Cleaned up the office and got my files in order. Spoke to several parents about upcoming custody cases. Looked up at 4:00 and the phone wasn't ringing so I worked on a Mariner's Compass Quilt block I've been wanting to try my hand at. Took a video of the dogs. Added it to my blog.

Ate potato chips and red wine.

[ApplePearBerry]

Pilates, jog, ate a strawberry and vanilla ice cream cone , work.

[Zoom Zoom]

I'm bored and tired from pretending to look busy at work all morning.
