quite honestly i know of one colleague who reads and comments, and my family in arizona. oh, and Jeremi, an awesome mom to 3 year old twins, who share a birthday with my 3 year old awesome neighbor & her mom Stacy (who also reads sometimes)....outside of that? my dh maybe once a while. but that's about it.
so thanks to my 6 faithful readers. thanks for even reading this sludge called 'jd's thoughts'...
i've not done the greatest in the facebook diet...i'm trying. Diets are hard. but blogging? i'm apparently very into that lately...
tonight, i'm watching the Grand Ole Opry Live as i type. only 2 people i know would think this is any sort of cool. but i'm down with how much of a country bumpkin i am....dwight yoakam is on at the moment...
also tonight? i completed something that 97% of the general populous would NEVER find enjoyable, let alone take part in.
i? wish it had been this beautiful...
it wasn't that pretty. but it felt *awesome* when we were done. even more so since we were completing this workout alone, on a high school track, in a cold rain. we being ally, coach ruth, myself, and wanda, a 46 year old grandmother of two who started any sort of exercise at age 45. she is training for her first marathon in may. her first half was just last october. and fun fact? (thanks Al, for letting me use your wordage. often.) wanda was in my blogging class last fall. crazy small world. it was wanda's first workout with us, and speedwork wednesdays are never easy. but she handled it awesomely and we tried to make her feel as welcome as possible during our EIGHT miles in a cold steady most-of-the-time rain. (right, i mentioned that part ;)
that? might equal *insanity* to some, or most of the human race. but as is well known in the running community, you never know what weather will be dealt your way on race day, so it's a good idea to train in anything. and thankfully? minnesota just so happens to *have* everything in the weather dept....so we're all good there. had it started lightning, we would have been safe and headed in.
but we kept going. it's what you do. or at least what these girls do. and i hope that stands for something somewhere somehow. peace...

Hey Jennifer. Make that seven readers, because I have you in my rss feed. :) I'm just not a very interactive blog reader! It's always fun to hear what impressive new things you're up to, though.
I take you have cable to see the Opry. You lucky girl.
I love your blog, and that my name was mentioned in your post in such a nice, positive way! Thanks Jen : )
How was story time this morning? We had E and Z's 3 year appt, which was actually pretty fun and funny (althought I am still in somewhat of denial that they're THREE now). We miss you and the library!!
