New Start



Just a few weeks ago I joined Facebook, at my daughters request. Now I find that I have friends when I am awake at 2:30am! I was also able to catch up with friends that live far, near and added bonus, see what my kids are up to. As a new years resolution I decided to get back into running and decided who better to ask than a woman who does it all, Rachel Ross. If I had 1/2 of her drive and dedication I wouldn't have to be getting back into running. So, the long term goal . . . Nike Woman's Marathon 2009 in San Fransisco. The short term running 3-4 miles 3-4 times a week.



This is my part of California, where we have snow days built into the kids school schedule. This year has been mostly freezing weather with not enough wet stuff! The cold makes me want to stay inside bundled up while the kids want to go outside to play! Soon I will get myself motivated and pull out the winter running clothes that I used to use as the treadmill is getting old. I can't imagine a life of only treadmill running. If I wait long enough to pull out the clothes it will be spring.

My 9th grade daughter, Chesla, just came home and informed me that she is the Freshman homecoming princess! Guess that means a trip or two up to Medford to look for a dress. Can't they just wear jeans and a t-shirt?
