Great start for the week! I ran 5 miles with Tom this morning before he had to head to work. It was a very nice morning. There was a light snow for a while. We decided our expectations aren't very high right now with temps and weather. But having low expectations makes it so whatever we encounter is probably better than what we thought it might be. Anyway, I was planning on meeting Beth after getting kids off to school. However, when I went to pick her up she met me at the door with her PJs still on. She said she had come down with something and wouldn't be joining me today. I could have just went home, but I didn't! I went out anyway and finished up with 3.2 more. From now until Tom adds in his noontime routine I will actually be a bit ahead of him on the mileage chart. It will only be for a few hours but I will relish it while I can! Just a tidbit of info. Our missionary's girlfriend who "Dear Johned" him came by yesterday to return some of his things and tell us she is engaged and show us her fiance' and her ring. It was strange as yesterday was exactly one year from the day of his Sacrament Meeting "farewell". He is doing great though and doesn't even miss having a girl to write to. In fact, I'm sure it is a relief to him in a way. She is a darling girl though and we wish her happiness in all she does.
