Running Aces Card Club is fantastic

They opened a new Harness Racing / Card Club about 35-40 minutes away from where we're living. It's a bit of a haul, but its a really nice card club and they have great promotions. They pay $5 per hour when you play and you can cash it out every time you're done playing. I've been there 3 times now and have won each time. I'm thinking of quitting Cargill to play professionally for a while... and now I'm done thinking about that because the benefits package Cargill offers is a bit better. I don't think my poker playing could have covered the Mayo Clinic bill I had in March.

Anyways, in other news, I'm training for Twin Cities marathon, which is October 2nd. We're in week 7 I believe and going out for 14-16 miles on Saturday morning. Hopefully the heat and more importantly the humidity stays away until after 10am when we finish up. 

In other other news, Cargill is rolling out the 2nd wave of our big Tartan project where we are introducing SAP to 4 more Business Units. We've been working some odd hours lately, but its not all that bad. working midnight to 8am feels odd, but then you get the whole day off to get things done around the apartment (or to go play poker).

In other other other news, my Colitis is in full remission right now and hopefully with the help of Juice Plus, which I'm still taking, it will stay that way for a looooooooooooong time. I've been eating much better and introducing new things back in very slowly. Starting to eat some fruits and veggies again and having no problems so far. I still have to be really cautious because you just never know with this mystery disease what might happen. 

Hope all is well with you guys!
