It's Here!


10 miles - Rough start to my day as I got in my car at 6:40am on a Saturday (a miracle in itself) and my car battery was dead. No warnings, no malfunctions, just no nothing. Ahhh, that'll wake you up. So after some chaos ensued, I finally got there albeit a bit late. Jonna was so great and waited for me. And alas, we got the final thing that we hadn't been dealing with weather-wise yet... flooding and wind. We are truly super troopers. It was so windy you could see it blowing the water across the sidewalk. We were out in WDSM because our usual spot at Grey's Lake was flooding as the rivers crest from all of the melting snow. However, we did it! 10 miles this week and despite the yucko weather... I saw something very exciting. Spring! That's right, my first robin sighting of the year, this little guy was cheering us on at about mile 6. Way exciting. :-) As usual, I had a busy Saturday and once I got my car jumped by my awesome neighbors (sidenote: same ones that helped me when I locked myself out of my car) not to mention they have the cutest little Libby ever. She's 1. Then I headed home to nephew Sami's 9th bday party and to my parents for an Irish dinner in honor of the holiday this week. Please note: we are neither Irish nor have we ever celebrated St. Pat's really. However, this year it was a corned beef and cabbage with green beer kinda meal. It was fun and they did a good job mixing it up! Here's a pic.
