Picking out a Rooster

 Pat and Paul foraged the coop for a handsome rooster for Paul to adopt!!  Paul is going to raise chickens.  He is going for the Animal, Vegetable, Miracle set up!! 

 

 

 Paul loves this cat, George.  He is just handsome!!!

Some Good Friends

 Paul came home for a visit!!  He brought Luke!!  Luke is Paul's best friends dog but boy did Luke like Paul. 

 I almost felt like Luke was my Grand dog!!  Sweet and stuck to you like velcro!!

 Paul and I went to visit another dear friend!! She and I have not had tea for a long time but she is often on my heart!!  She recently took in a dog and he sure took to her!!  It just seems like it was meant to be these two!! 

 

I DID IT!!

 

159th Place

Here I go!!!    {Look at the matching chick next to me!!  She’s doing the 10k}  Someday !

Here’s halfway.  That first mile was the longest mile I’ve ever seen!!   I’m very happy to see Lake Shore Drive up ahead!!   I was starting to feel wobbly on the last stretch.  It was a quick systems check:  legs feel fine, keep breathing right, and a sip of water to wet my whistle and my heart was all in it.  I am going to finish! Mind off the , “This is hard” and back to “I can do this".  It takes a lot to haul all this 3+ miles but I wasn’t alone and I saw all kinds of runners out there!  I didn’t walk two steps!!  I ran the whole thing!

When I saw the finish line I wasn’t done yet!  It was down another short block and up a hill and around and then hit the finish line from the back side! I was showing it up for my camera man coming through the finish line!! I DID IT!!!

Get In Line

Here I am UP NORTH for the Moose Run 5K.  It was a fresh 41 degrees when I arrived!  Todd and Donna arrived shortly after to cheer me on!  A little nervous but for the most part I was sure I was just going to run it my way. 

Todd told me to warm up to the moose. 

Well, looks like I’m a spectator doesn’t it?  I can blog some more if you’d like.
