best laid plans

10pm on Thurs night and we just pulled the plug on this weekends race/camping trip..........

• Monkey and I are still coughing like crazy and I feel poor, at best

• the forecast for Sat is 90% chance of thunderstorms

• fuel cost (driving truck w/ camper in tow)
  

Even though we'll lose our $$ from the park reservation as well as my pre-paid race entry fee, it just doesn't add up, so, it's a no-go. This was a second-tier race (lower priority) for me but it still bums me out not to get to do it just for the training.

--Monkey handled the news pretty well for a 5 year old...probably better than I would have.
We told him that we will try to go later in the week since it's spring break.
--RAB has been shopping all week to get "stuff" ready for us.
--I've been wanting to do this race for the past 2 years only to have conflicts w/ the HS band spring trip...finally works out schedule wise, and now this.
--Made arrangements for someone to cover for me at church this Sunday....

Lots of stuff screwed up because of some freakin' little bug..................
