Lazy Saturday

I am thoroughly enjoying a much needed Saturday. I woke up and then sat in bed with my laptop. Then I lounged around a bit and then ran. The weather is not hot so I was able to run whenever I wanted...which ended up being around 11. I ran my 5 mile loop- I thought I was sucking under but actually to my surprise I hit my last record time. On my way up the hill I passed a woman running down...when I got back to the house she was coming back...turns out she is my new neighbor and runs slow like me...we will make a date to run together...it is always nicer to have someone to run with. I am approaching 300 miles for the first time in ages...I have 42.07 miles to go for 2013!

Tonight I have a PTA event...it will be fun but I am so enjoying doing nothing. I have my sewing computer warming up and I hope to make some gifts for Thanksgiving and Hanukkah. The dog is waiting for a walk and I would love to just sit on the couch.

Tomorrow is a loooong day. I cannot eat, only drink clear liquids for a procedure on Monday....there goes my 3 day weekend but it is better than taking a day off work. Conference are coming up and I have a zillion report cards to do...and papers to score and lessons to plan and books to read. I am looking forward to a fun Thanksgiving break even though we will be traveling.

Mileage Update

So I was complaining about the gadgets not working...I have used them every day that I exercise for the past 4 years....putting my totals in the sidebar to motivate myself...and this month, the gadgets suddenly stopped working. I finally found a way to send a concern to blogger...no reply of course but when I tried the gadgets today...WHA-LA! they work!!

I am proud of my running miles this year...I haven't run this many miles since I was in college (way more per month,)...and weighed a lot less and ran 7 and 8 minute miles....but I am twice as old now and feel pretty good at coming in 299/1520 in my age group in the S.F. Nike half marathon.

Halloween is Thursday...I have a very cool costume planned...and it is always a favorite day for me with the kids....I will be sure to post- besides, it's my "birthday!"
