I miss blogging! Haven’t been here in a month so I just wanted to pop in and say hi. Hope you are all enjoying your Spring wherever you are locatedโI love that I have readers as far away as New Zealand!
Real simple, I’ll let you know how my month has been going in about 3 bullets.
I’ve been running 1 or 2 times a week. I’m slow but steady and have adjusted nicely to this new norm of decreased speed, duration and distance. It’s nice to have it back in my life consistently since being sidelined so much in 2017. As for races. They’ll be few and far between. I’ll be running the Spring Lake 5 (miler) in a couple of weeks and couldn’t be more excited for it. Hoping for decent weather.
I’ve been working all day e’ryday. Yup, not lying here. Upwards of 12ish hours daily.
And any remaining hours have been either eating, sleepingโor of course, walking Duncan. There were a few family highlights as well sprinkled throughout. Mr. SOTSS turned 45 and my niece turned 18. She had accepted admission at the University of Pittsburgh but only a week later found out she was also accepted to NYU’s (New York University) Applied Psychology program so she is switching gears and will be attending NYU instead. I’m a very proud aunt.
I’ll leave you with a few highlights of the last month in pictures. Now tell me some of YOUR highlights from the last 30 days!
Running highlights:
This past Saturday I had 59 minutes left to Deena Kastor’s book “Let Your Mind Run” and ran until the book was finished ๐ I highly recommend the book. As a side note, I heard her on a recent podcast episode say she didn’t run for like 4 months straight while writing the book.
The trees have been blooming like crazy here. This was another easy weekend run
There was the 7 miles I ran at the beach 3 weeks ago with a few minutes of bench sitting…. (highest distance so far this year!)
And realizing my average pace was 11:11 “make a wish” pace. Do you make a wish at 11:11? I’ve been doing this since high school.
And an after-work evening random evening run.
Working highlights:
a 12 foot x 2 foot sign we created and installed recently for a new cooking school in New Jersey
A large key that I printed, applied to foam board and hand cut for a mortgage lender
Some vinyl graphics we applied to the window above this company’s entrance
And everything in between:
My niece all ready for her next chapter. Class of ’22
Can’t forget about watching Desi win the Boston Marathon in that cold/windy/rain. Amazing!
More Spring beauty on another evening stroll with the pooch
Seriously this is a highlight. I got a new toilet seat and installed it myself. ๐
We are representing the business in comfy fashion ๐
As seen while walking Duncan one evening. So pretty
Evidence of the coffee i spilled on Mr. SOTSS’ birthday card. Typical Sally. I spill coffee on EVERYTHING!
