A Good Day

It's been a very good day...
  • Doc told me that I was OK to start running again, but that I needed to come back SLOWLY. Turns out I had not one, but two stress fractures. One is pretty much healed completely, the second one is close. He suggested that I walk/run for a couple of days.
  • All I heard was that I can start running again...YEAH!
  • The annual Tour d'Truckee, the herd's annual "girls weekend" at Momma's place near Alpine Meadows, is this weekend. I just printed my boarding pass. Betty, Mik, Elsie and I are leaving tomorrow. I am giddy with excitement. I get to ski!!!!!!!
  • There will be minimal posting this weekend since what happens in Truckee, stays in Truckee (its a rule!)
  • I just got my roots done, so no more silver strip down the center of my head.
  • I've finished 4 of 5 course syllabi a week ahead of time...and the fifth one is almost finished.
  • I did a kick-ass resume for my sister this morning.
  • The UPS guy just delivered this...
Wine club deliveries are like a little gift on your doorstep...
Yes, it's been a very good day.

  4. I love when the UPS guy shows up with stuff like that.

    Have fun on your trip! I'm so jealous... (Yeah, I know I just had a trip, but I traveled with two guys. There's something to be said about a girl's trip. I'm gonna call my sister and BFF from high school...)
