Nope - it's what we get for being a small team without a lot of active parents helping. I was the first to arrive and the last to leave, and the entire swim meet has been one headache after another starting with needing to change locations at the last minute - including ALL the stuff that goes along with the meet & food & giant BBQ'a and 5 billion tables & chairs. It was total chaos :/ And will be again today because we have to run the meet then vacate the pool we're at leaving it in better condition then we found it. We'll see how that goes.
You'll crack up when I take a pic of my hoodie tomorrow, I used masking tape and wrote "WALKING 4 DEBI" on the back of it for today's walk
OMG Randy - I can't WAIT to see that!! Too funny!
I did, I came home and was in bed by 8:00 pm.
I'm off again, so I'll catch you guys later
Have a good day!

Hey guys,
It feels good to be back and rested This particular swim meet was hard because we were hosting it (we do 3 a year), and we had to have the location changed at the last minute...which means moving ALL our stuff.
At least it's OVER!!
The first day, Meg dropped her times in 3 events and stay the same in 1, yesterday she added time to 2 events and DQ'd in one. Needless to say, she was NOT a happy camper yesterday :\
I ate fatty, crappy food from the grill of our snack bar - I'm sure I wasn't over on calories, because I didn't eat a lot all day, but the food I did have wasn't all that nutritious...it'll be nice getting back on the GOOD food wagon!

"Hey, support athletics and physical fitness by eating deep fried cheese at our snack bar!"
Logic. How hard would it be for them to have a basket of fruit to offset those candy bars. I have been there too. "hmm...nachos....there's corn in the chips...and cheese in the cheese...maybe....seems nutrious-like. Best decision I guess???"
Right.

I remember swim meets. I remember they sucked too because the pools are all hot (well, not for the swimmer, but for their cheering section it is). Prime territory for dehydration I tell ya. Have you been drinking your WATER!! just do it.

Thanks for stopping by you guys - I always feel so guilty when I can't reciprocate - and tonight I'm going to my book club meeting.
Thanks Randy, she really took it hard yesterday - she wanted to scratch the one event she DQ'd in, and her coach wouldn't let her. I even bought a new pair of goggles to make it go a little better, and so when she disqualified, she wanted to scream at me AND her coach "SEE, I told you I couldn't do it!!" After 20 minutes of talking with her coach she was OK. Sometimes I'm really glad I'm not her coach
As for the food of the masses, yeah it does get in the way!
Thanks TLA - I did have the chance of bringing my own food, I just choose not to because of how long I'd be gone, yadda yadda...and TBH, I don't care how many healthy options are around, when I'm around sausage, eggs and hash browns, I'm a sucker
It also doesn't help that the guys doing the cooking know how much I love CRISPY hash browns, and since I work really hard to make their job easier, they try and repay me in the only way they can.
LOL! Well, we do offer bananas, apples, vegie bowls, terryaki chicken rice bowls - but, well, the breakfasts will do me in every time! We choose not to sell too much in the way of candy and we don't serve nachos - but we do sell hot dogs and hamburgers and quesedillas
Oh Mechelle, glad to hear I'm no alone!!
Oh, I'm so glad to have someone who totally understands as my personal tour guide!
Urgh, yes, it was hot! And we ran out of water to sell!! And no, the past week (since the Halloween challenge) I have been terrible with my water Maybe 40-50 oz a day if I'm lucky - I just quit making it a priority, and I'm definitely suffering from it!
Thanks Tammy! You're so right, we've worked far too hard to give up or go backwards - and I feel like I'm back peddling...all week I've been bouncing between 192 & 194. Not being able to walk is driving me crazy too. My feet are getting better, but not "well" not to mention other issues that have made walking unpleasant. I'm feeling pretty damn old at the moment!
