Getting things done...

Although I am not bound to the couch anymore, I am still battling illness and tack on the fact that I am really congested and pseudoephedrine is a banned substance but makes up 90% of decongestion medications...It's been a tough week so far. Time has, though, flown by. I've spent most of my time with Leo and we have been on a few treks around the city. Other than that it's been appointments, paperwork and various things that I need to get done while I am in town. I've been a bit of a driver, too - driving my mom to and from her eye appointment to get laser surgery and my cousin to and from the ferries, although she is almost missed getting off because she was sleeping with her ear phones in.

Today's highlight was a hike up Mount Doug. We went up one side by Cedar Hill but came down some other random side. I had no idea where we were and at some points I was a little nervous but I could still hear cars so I headed toward the roads. Also, are there actual cougar sightings in there because I'm pretty sure Leo would not be any help if there was one. Here was the view from the top today:




After that I had an eye appointment. My first appointment since I got glasses two years ago. I had a major debate about if I should get "transition glasses" or regular glasses + prescription sunglasses. I decided against both and am getting a new pair from Goo goo Goggles and then dealing with the sun glasses situation later. Also, my eyes are slightly worse. eep.

I decided to send the link of some Ray Ban's and Maui Jim's to my dad to look for something similar in China. Probably, that will work out better.

Went roller blading with Leo (cross training maybe?) took a video of him.. he ran like this the whole way...45 minutes... he still wasn't tired when we got home. I don't know how he does it:
