I wanted to do 13 miles today with Kimmy but we couldn't get together so I planed on doing 6 before the Christmas breakfast this morning. One emergency after another prevented me from going before the party. Then one fun thing after another prevented me from going after. Finally around 4:00 I changed and started to go out when my son came home, said that he was going to babysit his girlfriend's puppy which being translated from teenager into English ruffly means "mom if you don't want to be cleaning little messes up of the carpet all night you will need to babysit the dog" I took the dog to the park and started to run with my Garmin hoping I could get a few miles in but the dog wouldn't follow. Finally I convinced my daughter to watch her while I ran. I started out all was going well until it started to get dark and I noticed I was wearing pavement gray and nothing reflective at all! I turned around and ran home I could have put on something reflective and gone out for the last three miles but the puppy had already done her business on the carpet so I stayed home and watch her. I guess I was not ment to run today!
