End of January 2009 Update

Haven't blogged in awhile.....we are in the final stages of closing on the house in Ocean City, NJ.  So far, so good....we continue to keep our fingers crossed.  My brother Lou is also a partner on the "shore" house and he has been helpful on the cross-country transaction.

On the kids front......EJ still hasn't made a college decision yet but he's getting close.  So far, he's been accepted and received scholarships from SMU, TCU, Baylor, and Tulsa.  He's still waiting to hear from Texas-Austin, Texas A&M, UNC Chapel Hill and William and Mary.  We will let everybody know as soon as we know.....

Jackson continues to do well in basketball.  Unfortunately his team had their first loss of the season at the Norman Invitational Tourney but they are still 17-1 and have already locked up the conference championship.  After winning the conference in football also, we are all getting excited about this group of boys and how they will do at Edmond North.  So far, Jack and his teammates have gone 14-2 over two years in football and 35-3 in basketball winning a total of three conference championships.  Next up is club soccer in the spring......

Nanci continues to be busy with kid management, her therametics business and tennis.  She has also started to run and appears to like it.

For me, I'm back in training again after a rough 2008....which included some success: OKC Half-Marathon, Red Bud BIke and 10-K, Redman Aqua-Bike, Hotter-N-Hell 100 Bike race and a couple of sprint triathlons.  Of course, I also developed over-training syndrome and wound up getting a cardiac catheterization (what the &^%%).......but, I'm back in the saddle again this year....

Right now, I'm in the middle of marathon training....having completed a recent 12 mile long run at Chesapeake Boathouse....it was 18 degrees with a 20 mile north wind....I actually had icicles on my face....yikes......

Anyway, talk with you in a bit
