shelter from the storm.

another 'big one' is coming. we've all scrapped plans of travel for the weekend. i was going to head the eau claire for my mom's birthday. robin's family was coming here for wedding dress shopping and other celebrations of birth. our next winter storm put the kibash on that, and the weather douche is saying 18inches when the weekend expires. woaaa...nelly. and i was getting used to the dry pave for once.

our dog turns 1 year old today. or in dog to human conversion using the 'new' system he turns 12 today. he is a pre-teen by every estimation. a 'tween' if you will? at least we don't have to put braces on the pooch.

i ran for the first time last night. well, it felt like the first time. the first mile really hurt, then i went euphoric for the middle 2, then i cooled down for 1.5. short and easy. and i'm a tad sore this a.m. influenza be damned. what a wuss.

happy friday.
