Is it sad that I can't remember if I ran on Saturday or not?  

This is back to school week, and it has already brought some stress.  However, I think it is going to be a good year.  

It was only slightly cooler (mid 80s) for the run today (I ran before dinner, just so I can get some work done this evening), but not a lot of humidity, so it was not bad.  Just an easy 4.

Yesterday I was walking into Walmart and made eye contact with a guy walking out the door.  When I was getting my cart, I heard him ask me a question, but couldn't hear what he was asking because of the blowers over the entrance doors, so I had to turn around.  He asked me if I run, and when I said yes, he said he could tell because of my legs.  At least I think that's what he said, because it was loud in that area. 

Sounds like it was a creepy exchange, but it was really more awkward than anything else.  He wasn't trying to flirt or anything.  He was very sincere.  So I just smiled and walked into the store.  But at least I look like a runner, anyway.

Joined the early morning club.  Ran really slow...

Today was Caleb's first day of kindergarten!  Maybe I'll post a picture of him in his uniform if I think about it :)
