1.Afterrunning the Chicago Half-marathon, Amanda and I wanted to keep up with it. We have not done so well, but we did manage to run the Sycamore 10k. That's about 6.1 miles. I was hoping to finish under and hour and I was able to accomplish this but it was difficult. As the winter and coldness draws closer every day, it is becoming more and more difficult to keep up with the running, but hopefully Amanda and I will be able to.
2. That's right. Our pediatrician did a little test thing and said he had H1N1. Now it was not the official test that they have to send in samples and then wait for results, but I trusted our doc and did what she said to do and within a couple days he was back to normal. He was put on tamiflu. I have heard this has been a very effective treatment for swine flu. This happened the weekend of Halloween. But Bry is well and no one else in the house showed any signs of the flu since. I think we are in the clear!
3. My little sister is nearing the end of her college experience. Part of that was her last home volleyball game and it was our pleasure to drive out and celebrate with her. It was a great weekend with family and laughter. It was a bitter sweet moment for Ruth as well as my parents as the last 8-10 years have been devoted to this sport. It took her many places and she has developed friendships that will never be broken. Ruth's last couple years have come with their own difficulties and she is looking forward to discovering what the next step in her life will be. She is a bright and beautiful woman and we have no doubt that she will find something that she loves and will devote everything she has to it. LOVE YOU RUTH!!
4. I have been pondering the possibility of getting a DSLR camera for quite some time. Just recently, I started looking seriously. After asking around to some friends that are in the photography business. I found the camera that I liked and was decently priced. The Canon Rebel XSi (black) is the camera I bought. I found a some great deals on Amazon and I have had it now for a few days. I have loved getting to know it and the many features it has. I'm looking forward to mastering everything it has to offer. Should be fun and gives me a little hobby to take up!
5. Lastly, I just finished the fall school term. I do have an interim class thats starts next Monday but will be done in 4 or 5 weeks. So, I'll bust that out and be just another class down! I feel very good about this last term and I am expecting to continue my straight A's streak!
Amanda is doing well! This year has brought some challenges, but she is fighting through them and she will be all the better teacher for them. I am doing my best as a loving husband to keep her relaxed and stress free, but sometimes I fail at this as well.
Well, thats brings us up to date. Hopefully, it will not be another month till we talk again. We are looking forward to this weekend with best friends, next week Amanda has Thanksgiving break, going downtown next friday, and then the trip to AZ for a wedding!
Love to all! As a good friend says everyday...hug your loved ones today and tell them too!
Will Amanda and Bryson
