Did Jillian Michaels with my sister, and then later we took 6 boys sledding!  It was pretty fun.  She didn't go, but I wouldn't miss an opportunity to sled.

An easy 4 miles.  It was warm(er) and foggy out.  Snow's melting, but I think it's supposed to refreeze (and maybe snow a bit more) tomorrow.

I saw Burt running the other day.  Wow does he have a big head.

(Oh, yeah.  And I ran today).

Squeezed in before Euchre.  I did not win.  Someday it will happen for me...

We got some fresh snow today, and since it was snowing all day, most sidewalks weren't shoveled.  Going was slow, but while I was running some guy with his dog, after I exchanged pleasantries with him, told me I was fast.  When I laughed he said he saw me on the other side of town.  And then his dog ran out into the street, right in front of a car.

Don't worry.  No dogs were harmed in the making of this blog entry.  He made it.

Yesterday instead of running I had a fun mother/son night with Eli while Chuck was supervising a basketball game and Caleb was at his first sleepover.  But I doubt I would have run anyway.  It warmed up to a balmy 5 degrees.

I either need to get a 3 month gym membership (not too expensive) or pull the trigger on my treadmill dream.  Still few shoveled driveways.
