Running Pals




I am training for a marathon in Paris in the Spring. I have been a runner for years but my usual marathon training pals are back in the states. So these days Sherman and Ellie come along for the ride. The other day when we got to the woods I let them both off the leash. First Ellie turned around and started running home! Seriously everyone was laughing at us. But finally we were off and running smoothly along the trail. We had a good 30 minute stretch where I was enjoying the music and the orange leaves above our heads and below our feet. Then Sherman took off. I chased him uphill for a good five minutes. Later in the run I let him off the leash again. People are changing around here these days.

Easy....I am Trying to Mend a Broken Heart Over Here!

I got my feelings hurt today. I will spare you the details. If only I knew the graceful way (the perfect way) to react to hurt feelings. I did react. Was that "right" or not? Why do I care. I think it is fine. I mean who cares anyway. I had the hurt feelings and I did not want to carry them around forever. So why not share them with the guilty party.

A Brand New Day!

Today I got my flat cleaned!!! As if that was not enough, I have hired a dog walker. She will take the boys out while I am at work. I decided it was finally time to ask for a bit of help. Now, I will post pics of the snazzy new flat.

Last week I was sitting on the couch with my boyfriend (yep, I've got one! ) and I asked him if this was how he pictured me in Europe. His response was "kind of". When I asked him to give some details. He said he pictured some things different. Like my flat; which he pictured much cleaner!!! :-) In my defense I travel A LOT and I have anemia.

I actually just returned from a week long business trip in Switzerland. It was beautiful and it snowed!!! Yes, I have some pictures.
