It was Bee-U-Teeful outside this morning.  Those clear blue skies and mild temps had my heart singing.  I was so chipper I gladly greeted the red-nosed, hypothermic tweeker who no doubt spent the night camping somewhere on the trail  "Hello Mr. Drug Addict, gorgeous morning eh?"  Unfortunately, my dog Sarah split one of the pads of her foot a few weeks ago, and so she hasn't been able to run with me.  So it's just me and the dumb blond (retriever) who can go. It doesn't inspire confidence.  Regardless, there was a balmy breeze and plenty of sunshine.  With the cat now buried, and my house 100% cleaner, I was feeling pretty chipper outside in the early morning sun. And after all, you know what's better than a three day weekend?  A four day work week!

Well, I'd have preferred for my cat NOT to die, and to be able to ski yesterday instead of clean :( I was sad to have missed Solitude on my ONE day off....

SOOO sorry your cat died and you had to bury her on your day off. I was thinking about you and looking for you on the slope. I thought perhaps you spent the day skiing with your kids at Sundance instead. There were bazillion little kids at Solitude yesterday...so cute...and NO LINES!!! I miss you sooo much!

Once I get my miles up a few, we'll do a few long runs. I'm just barely up to 9's and will get into the teens in the next few weeks. Once we're doing about the same miles, I'll be begging to join you on the JRP.
