Today is Thanksgiving and Cris and I put together a party each year for families who are far from their families. We had 57 people for dinner this year. I was afraid we would run out of food but thankfully we didnt. 

I am posting because I had a great run yesterday! It was a clear day and so i went a ways extra. My friend was watching my kids so I started out very excited. As usual my hip started bothering me but I worked through it. I ran a pretty major road because it is the only good stretch of road. So in between dodging rude cars and trucks the birds were singing and I am sure talking specifically to me. They were few and far between but they were so fun to hear and see! 

I found out that I have a very negative opinion about running in grass. As cars were passing i always made sure they had enough room to pass me. If there was another car coming and I thought they did not have enough room I would go straight into the grass to run until they passed. Well, I found that grass is deceptive and unforgiving! More than one time did I find myself in a position where I was falling down or into a ditch just by moving a few inches to my right or left. All in all it was a fabulous run and I was glad to have gone right before such a hectic day. BYE
