A busy day

This morning I got out of bed around 7 a.m. It felt good to sleep in on a Monday morning. Usually Monday through Friday I'm out of bed by 4 a.m. After letting the dogs outside, I watched some TV. Nothing really great on TV so I watched some Fox and Friends until 7:45 a.m., but before getting dressed to run I flipped it to the The Weather Channel. The local on the 8's said it was 71 degrees in Adrian with 88% humidity. It wasn't even 8 a.m. yet!

After watching the weather I decided to stay indoors and run on my treadmill. I started running on the treadmill and my legs were so tired from the 4 mile run on Sunday evening. I thought I wouldn't make it through my 3 mile run this morning. I wanted to stop and not continue a couple times because my legs were so dead. I finally made it to 3 miles and my t-shirt was soaked. It didn't sweat as bad as Sunday, but it was close. After cooling down from my run I took and shower and then sat on my couch reading a book and watched more TV.

Around noon, I woke up my husband. It was hot in our house, so we really didn't eat lunch. We don't have air conditioning. So while waiting for my husband to leave for work, I took a nap on the couch. When my husband left for work at 1:45 p.m., I got in my car and headed off to two high school graduation parties.

Instead of giving the girls a card and money, I had photographs that I took of them during the cross country and track seasons and had them enlarged, matted and framed. When I handed the photos to both girls I knew that they loved them. The mother of one of the girls already said that she wanted it. So I guess I scored with the pictures.

After the open houses, I drove to my mom's house to spend some time with her, my sisters and my brother. We all talked and had a few laughs. Then I had to go to let my dogs out of the kitchen. I got home and I let them out in the backyard to stretch and do their business. To help them cool off, I gave them each an icecube to eat. They both enjoyed them and ate them quickly.
Now with the dogs laying on the floor downstairs, it is time to change into some other clothes, read more in my book and wait for my husband to come home around 6 p.m. Then tomorrow morning my routine of getting up at 4 a.m. starts all over again.
