Training Continues

Here it is February.  It is Monday and yesterday I finished week 2 of training for the half marathon I am going to walk in in April.  It was a grueling 4 mile walk.  My time was 67.36 minutes.  Not sure if that is good, but it is what I did.  My legs hold up, my feet get tired, my mouth gets dry, part of the time I feel nausea, and I have a bit of trouble getting my breath, but I am sure happy to call it quits when my time or distance is up!

The windmills are 3D.

On a more fun note the transportation quilt went to the store and now the windmill quilt has also gone.  It is pretty cute.  I had a piece fall off my machine.  Not good.  I don't think it is a big issue, but I will take it in to John.  He is my go to guy.

I met the sorority girls for dinner last Thursday.  We didn't go to a movie, but we enjoyed the Mexican food and the laughter.  It was good to spend the time with such fun gals.  They always put a smile on my face and know just the right thing to say.

Yesterday was the Super Bowl.  We watched it for the commercials.  I asked my father-in-law who he was for and he really didn't have a preference, so I told him the Ravens would win and immediately he was for the 49ers.  I was very scientific in who I choose - the Raves wear purple!  Luckily, I was able to call a few times and ask if he saw that touchdown, what is the score, and when were the 49ers going to start playing?  We had fun, (at least I did).
Today I was in Norman for the Kindergarten Conference.  I picked up a few new ideas.  I get to go again tomorrow.  The sad thing is my student teacher started today.  She came by to meet me on Friday so I was able to let her know in advance I would be out.
I go to the oncologist on Wednesday, Have blood work, and squeeze in a mammogram.  It will be a busy day.  My friend, Charme' said we would just work around it.  I am truly blessed with the friends I teach with.
