Sorry for the "radio silence" last week. I got knocked out by an infection. It's been a long time since I was so broken down. I think my body decided that getting sick was the only way it was going to get any rest. I am almost 100% again and even enjoyed a good hard workout last night.
Being so drained last week did alter our plans for the upcoming Thanksgiving weekend. Originally, we were going to spend Thanksgiving with Paul's family and then travel to the Central Valley the next day to visit my family. I had to let my family know that we decided to take it easy that weekend and stick close to home instead.
I do feel bad about not being able to see them during the holiday weekend, but the guilt is tempered by the fact that it would have been our third trip to see them in the month of November. We were there last weekend for an event. Dante and I are spending this coming weekend there for another event. I think it will be ok if we choose to spend Thanksgiving weekend at home. Also, my family is amazingly understanding when it comes to juggling holidays with other families and the need to just stay home sometimes.
Paul and I are very excited about having three unscheduled days to do as we please. We hope to visit a few museums, go on a hike or two and just enjoy being at home with Dante.
