Boo!

Today I purchased some ghosties to hang off my front porch. Oh, they do bring so much joy to my heart! I love the fall. It has been hot here until the last day or two, but I have made an intellectual decision to go ahead and act as if it is truly changing seasons.

Tonight I had my sprinkler system shut down for the winter. That made me very happy. I got to visit with the man who "does" my sprinkler system, and is a fellow AA member. It was nice to visit with him.

Tomorrow I will have my last Saturday morning training run with my group before my marathon. I won't be going far. I was scheduled for 8 miles, but after I wrote to my coach and told her how I was feeling this week, she suggested I go 4 or 6 tomorrow. Sounds good to me. That race last week absolutely fried me. It was not the best idea - but then it wasn't really an idea - it was a reschedule due to a wildfire. It "should" have been 2 weeks earlier, which would have been very different.

I am grateful, grateful, grateful tonight. It is a Friday night before a three day weekend. I have a short run tomorrow. I get to see my running group tomorrow - I missed them last week. My granddaughters will be here with my daughter when I get home. They will like my ghosties! I had an extremely productive week at work. I have friends in Alcoholics Anonymous, I may not have always "liked" them, but I always love them. My house looks nice tonight and I am about to sit down in it and knit for a few minutes before I drift off to dreamy-land. By the Grace of God I get to do all this stuff. Awesome.
