Today was kinda overcast but still warm, low 60s and the thunder and lightning came tonight! Kinda weird for wintertime! I couldn't get Kyra to use the bathroom for me outside; everytime she started to do her "business" the thunder would rumble and she would run scared to death!
I didn't make it to Anne Patrick's Wonderful Days 5K race in Marietta today. Mark had to take his Mother to Julie's Dad's funeral and they were leaving before noon so I was afraid I couldn't get back from Marietta in time. Tomorrow/Sunday there is a race in Jefferson that I am planning to attend; hope nothing happens to change those plans!
Today was a pretty lazy day. I caught up on emails and Facebook then caught up on newspapers I had been collecting on the back porch. I kinda feel guilty for doing pretty much nothing. I vacuumed the back porch and took the dogs out and tried to walk them around the yard to exercise the "wild child" Kyra but she was more interested in tormenting Riley & Pookie and keeping them from enjoying their time outside.
I did finally get around to walking on the treadmill, 2 miles in 34 minutes. Not much to brag about but at least I did it; that makes 7 days in a row now toward the 100 Day Challenge. I think last year when I tried the Challenge, I only lasted 4-5 days! I am hoping to make it this time!!
Its supposed to rain tomorrow right before the race for a couple of hours, 40% chance, then at 3pm when race starts the chance of rain drops to 20% so I am hoping that it doesn't rain during the race but even if it does, I can handle it because the temperature is supposed to be 60-62 degrees.
Oh well, I will report on all this tomorrow. Sandra Alford is supposed to be coming to do the race with me. I am hoping I can keep up with her if she can run it. She has had a bum knee since doing Brasstown Bald in December. I'm hoping we both can do well in the race!!
Later gators............
