I know, I have been really lazy!!!. . .But I have had a lot of fun.  We went camping up at Oak Grove and I cooked some of the best dutch oven tates ever. 

Yesterday at church the young mens president and I had a long talk about the boys and I think we solved all those problems, plus any that the world has to offer as well.  He is a Nurse also so we had a lot of cool things to talk about. 

Also last week I was able to get my CPR instructors certificate for the American Red Cross, and my ACLS (Advanced Cardiac Life Support) certificate.  Needless to say, I  haven't had much energy or desire to run.

Today when I went to get on the treadmill, the belt kept slipping so I tore the whole thing apart tightening any bolt I could see, the belt attached to the motor was slipping so I tightened that up, and when I put it all back together it worked perfect.  I decided to take it easy and run as far as I could.  5.1 miles in 42 minutes and then I walked a 1/4 mile.  I am tired but I feel good.

 Now it is time to play with the kids and help my wife out,  she is 15 weeks along and we just got the paper work for the Ultrasound.  My wife is starting to get over the sickness phase but we aren't out of it yet.  Last week she got a couple miles on the treadmill as well.
