I was watching NCAA tournament basketball with James, idling perusing the web from his iPhone, and went to this site for shits and giggles. That's when I realized just how long it had been since my last post. My sincere apologies, dear readers (what few of you there are left)!
A quick recap:
My last post was the day before the Goldsboro Junior Jog 5K. The day of the race, we arrived to find about 40 runners present for this inaugural event. Kudos to the Goldsboro Juniors for a well-run race! It was sunny, windy, and chilly in downtown Goldsboro and the gang was excited to run our first 5K of 2012. David ended up taking the title, but all of us ended up "placing." Since I was running in my new shoes, I knew I would be happy with under 26; my second place female overall (got to love small races) at 26:02 wasn't half shabby.
I honestly can't quite track which days we did what with the front room. After the floors were installed, everything has been a bit of a blur - working on it here and there. To date, we have successfully painted the trim in the front room, painted the hall walls, moved the furniture into the front room, and taped off the trim for the hall. Decorating touches are needed (and, um, curtains?) but we're trying not to break the bank with the details and hope to have the room feeling more polished in the next few weeks.
Spring has officially spring in North Carolina and while James thinks we might still have a freakish cold snap in store, I'm betting otherwise. Today it was 81° when I went for a tempo run. It was so warm, I trimmed a mile off the scheduled run and just did 4 with 2 @ 8:30.
My folks arrive for a three-day weekend visit and my mother Janet plans to join us in running at the 7th Annual Habitat for Humanity Home Run in Greenville. My father Mike is looking forward to joining in on the breakfast. It's been a while since I've seen my family and I am super stoked.
