Spending the day working on math review from the ground up.  I have alot to catch up on.  Trying to learn college level math when you can barely remember your name is not very conducive to remembering much.  I have two big placement tests to conquer which will get me into Calculus and more advanced Compsci courses this fall.  This is a “have to do ” not an “attempt to do” kind of thing, so I’m delving much deeper into the areas I have had issues with and just touching on the stuff I remember for practice sake.

Since Monday I’ve racked up nearly 60 miles on the bike…and most of those miles were climbing up a considerable grade.  I’m actually amazed my aerobic level is in as good as shape it is!

Today is “rest day 1 of 2″ where I’m giving the legs a break.  But as I go through a set of review questions, I have a little game- However many problems I get wrong…is the number of sets of 10 pushups (or situps alternately) I do at the end.  Then I go back and identify what I did wrong and will go back to those tomorrow to see how well I retained the info.  So far I’ve only had a couple of sets to do.  Taking a break now, time to eat lunch and hit it for another hour before picking up the oldest from school.  Plan to do the same routine tomorrow other than at some point I need to go out and assist my dad with his new a/v setup.

Time for tuna on wheat.
