Squish

Getting out of bed this morning was a struggle. I knew I needed to get the run in early because the weather is supposed to be miserable today, but I just didn't want to get out of my comfortable bed. Fortunately my future hubby nudged me out and I got out the door relatively quickly.

At the very beginning of my run there was a dead snake in the middle of the road. I almost stepped in it but fortunately I just missed it. Poor little sucker had obviously been run over and squished to death. I was a mixture of sadness and disgust.

My run was all over the place. I started off slow and then got really fast. Then I slowed down again and got really fast. This happened 3 times. But it was one of my fastest times ever. And I felt really good when running. So I was pretty happy by the time I got home.

I had one creepy moment. On the last leg of my run, there was this guy walking and as I passes I said good-morning, like I do to everybody that I pass. He responded with a good-morning and a how are you. So I said good, and you. And he responded with not great, but I will be. And then I had run far enough ahead that I didn't need to respond, but the way he said it just creeped me out. That spurred the last of my run to be fairly quick.

Anyway, I am home and safe and getting some work done and getting ready to go dress shopping again! I am hoping to get out and boot block with Sarah again this weekend. Please send everyone you know to come give us your spare change. Just dig through the couches and I know you will find some! Help support finding the cure for blood cancers.
