Things I’m excited about, and a small piece of art
Posted on | March 8, 2007 |
* New plants: a tall potted palm for the bedroom, and a delicate fern for downstairs by the kitchen sink.
* Running every day this week except for Monday, and sleeping better at night because of it.
* Starting a half-marathon training program–mid May-ish is the date for several possible runs. Loving the focus a tangible goal provides.
* The earlier daylight savings time this year (this Sunday!) and making plans to spend time in the sun.
* Having a piece accepted for publication in a magazine you can buy at Barnes & Noble. (WHOOhoo!)

Christina, keep it up with the running! I also just started my half training, in prep for a race in May. It’s been a while since I’ve taken running seriously and I hate that I can forget why it’s so helpful. I recently wrote an entry in my journal titled “Remember This,” where I listed all of the things that I MUST remember when I feel like dropping it: the taste of food after a run, the remarkable sense of achievement, the change in body shape after only a week…and on and on….
Keep it up!!!

Oh my gosh I love this piece of art! I think it’s one of my all time favorites of yours. Yay for gorillas and bananas! And for early daylight savings time - oh, a gift from God. And YEEP YEEP YEEP for your writing being in a publication I can buy! I am so proud! I will treasure it forever, and brag to all my friends. And tell them to buy it, too.
