The 10000 step streak ends with a technicality!  A time zone shift really!  Bummer!  I should have thunk that thru!  Flight was good about as good as I could hope for, choice of movies I went .500.  Dead Pool was really good.  Hateful 8 not so much.  I'm about half way thru so maybe it will get better but I expect more from QT.  Smallville comes up big in the clutch like always.  

Indy car looking bad ass as always in the Indy Airport.  God they sound so cool going around the track!

The joker himself might be envious of my old room!  Black and purple where always good coloring for me.  

Dad was asleep when I got home.  I'm really excited to talk to him in the morning.  Now I have to decide do I go to bed or do I finish hateful 8

Big walk today.  3.5 Miles with shiner.  We shared my camelbak.  It was a little tricky but we got it done.  I think I wore her out though. By the time we got back she was being pulled along.  that doesn't happen to often.  she is usually dragging me around.  I have 13K steps so far today.  Been a busy weekend on my feet.  26K steps in all.  Still not enough to win the weekend war with the beav.

Today my Dad went his 60th Medical school reunion!  He was one of 6 graduates from the class who was there! I'm so happy he made it with all that has gone on over the last 9 months, the man is defiantly a fighter!  I can't wait till I get to see him.  It will be soon!

I will admit he is pulling off the purple suit better than most people can.  Probably only Mr. J can pull it off better than he can!  I don't know if I was ever embarrassed or not by how my dad dresses.  He has an affinity for loud colors.  I remember asking him once if he cared people where talking about how he dresses.  He said to me "Billy, at least they are talking about me!"  I will also never forget regional hospital and walking down past all the doctors picture on the wall and doctor after doctor had on conservative blue or black suit and then bam there was Doc with his orange jacket standing out in the crowd.  

I like to wear colors and sometimes I'll take a risk and wear a pink shirt but I don't rock them like doc does.  If I had a quarter for every time I was asked is your dad color blind I'd be a rich man.

Happy 60th Reunion Doc!  Love you!

Mom Carol, Doc, and Leroy at the reunion!

Ok day today.  Marco failed to make the fast 9.  Sharks got smashed by the blue notes.  My beloved Cubs laid an egg in SF (stupid Giants, let the A's move to San Jose!). I did walk over 10000 steps again!  So that rocks!  

Other than that I think shiner and I might head to bed.

Long day. I can ever remember going to bed with 131 emails in my work account.  However that is what I'm doing.  Just never got time to clear them.  It was just one of them days.

Started off great with breakfast with Mana!

Always good to see her smiling face :)

Then it was meeting after meeting after meeting after meeting!  Then who knows the day just got away.

I did get 10000 steps today!  Whoot whoot!

I did get thirds on the vegetable melody we had for dinner.

Now it's time to rest!

I got home and looked at my Fitbit and I only had 6000 steps.  Actually a little under that.  My five day streak of 10000 steps was in jeopardy.  It was already 7:20, my legs hurt.  I got inside and there was a very excited puppy greeting me.  She wanted to walk so we started walking and I felt great and needed to keep walking.  So I did and two miles later I had 10000 steps and I was pumped up and very happy.  The dog helps so much!  Knowing I have to walk her morning and night, have isn't realty the word.  I want to walk her and so I do and we just go, go, go.  :-)

my allergies are terrible today.  I can't stop sneezing and sniffling.  today was another really good day.  that is two days back to back.  I am happy with that.  We will keep rolling along.  There is no quit in Billy b.  No matter how many times I get knocked down, I get back up and keep going again.  i am starting to break the agreements in my life.  I have come to some harsh realizations here of late and realize that I have to just worry about me and getting to where I want to go.  What is, is and what will be will be.
