I finished my run to see that my 5 miles was only 4.12. I was very upset and couldn’t understand it. I checked my maps and finally figured out that I had just gone the wrong way. In order to make it five miles, I had done some weird loop. I messed it up by not remembering what I had mapped out. I was distraught and too exhausted to go back out to run more.
Then it dawned on me that tomorrow is a scheduled four mile run. It makes sense since I did four today to just swap my days and do five tomorrrow. I am distraught no more.
I am, however, still exhausted. I was practically falling asleep watching Lost at Niles’. I am going to get a great nights sleep, and then I have my day tomorrow all mapped out.
Breakfast, run two hours later, lunch, pick up trash with Niles, make dinner, go to coffee shop co-op meeting, eat dinner.
I love having things to do, and I clearly don’t have time for a “real job”. I’m too busy.

She turned one on Friday!

Today is a five mile run.  Yesterday was a rest day, and Monday I did 3 miles.  Actually it was only 2.81 because for some reason, my 3 mile route that I mapped turned out to be only 2.81 according to my iPhone.  Close enough.

I’m doing my 5 miles to end up at the library.  I’m going to help them with work, and then I have my Friends meeting at 5:30.  I’ll be stinky at the library, and sweaty and stuff, but I’m alright with that.  I gave my mom my Friends info, and my bottle of water for when I’m done.  I had a hard time figuring out my trip, because I wanted to end at the library, and I also wanted to have it be fairly flat.

I spent both Monday and Tuesday at City Hall helping out Trevor in the IT department, but he’s going on vacation starting tomorrow.  I’ll see if my dad needs any help in his office while Trevor is gone.

I walked to Larry’s last night to watch the City Council meeting, and it was a 1.5 mile walk that I went “the long way” and made it over 2 miles.  I took a lot of nice pictures on my walk, and I even SAW THREE DEER!  It was absolutely amazing, and I would never have seen them if I hadn’t been walking.  I even said an aloud, “Thank You” to Mother Earth.  I also saw so much trash.  It makes me extremely sad.  I am going this afternoon to the DPW to get some orange cones so I can pick up trash on a busy road and not worry about getting hit by cars.  The area on Pearl St is VERY hilly, and I don’t want to fall in the road and get run over!  They also said they would give me some reflective vests for my friends and I.  Will I wear those?  Only if I’m picking up trash at night (not likely).

Now, I just need some friends to help me.  I plan on picking up trash on Thursday, Friday, AND Saturday afternoons.  I’m recruiting my parents on Saturday.  Please let me know if you are available.
