Happy Halloween...have some carpet

Even though I got home late last night, it was still a productive evening. While Andy got rid of the candy, I got to work ripping out carpet. Of course I realized too late that giving out little pieces of the carpet and pad to the trick-or-treaters would have solved our disposal dilemma.....but the kids probably wouldn't have come back to our house next year. I have some momentum going now on the destruction, so I'm actually excited for the weekend when I can have some serious time to destroy the carpet and prepare for the new floors!

Here's some pictures of the disaster that is our main floor......no going back now!

As an added bonus, Alyssa, Makenna, Jason and Robert stopped by for candy last night (just as we were closing up the Halloween shop) and we promptly put the strong men to work. In about 5 minutes they had solved our china cabinet moving dilemma and cleared the way for total destruction! Thanks for the help guys!!!

This morning I went to see my friend Kathi Best from Tri-Fusion to start working out some of the kinks from a long racing season. I have always been a big proponent of massage, but have been very sporadic finding the time, money and motivation to get into a serious routine. Kathi is an amazing person, triathlete, friend and massage therapist, and I hope this is a start of a long, productive endeavour. Not only did we make some progress on my tight muscles, but we had some good conversation about racing and open-water swimming. Thanks Kathi...you are awesome!!!
