Gosh, it was such a pretty weekend. I looked at the trees today and I think we are in the peak of the fall season. It's suppose to rain this week and that will probably make the leaves to drop. That gives us yard work to do for next weekend.
Being that the weather was so very pleasant we ran on Saturday morning. JJ and I did 7 miles! I am so happy with my progress. I stopped my watch at 6 miles and it was on 59 minutes. This is a very nice time for me. After running I hurried home to take a shower. I had a manicure appointment at 10:00 and then we had a birthday party to go to at 11:15. A friend of Chief's turned 60 along with her husband. Their children gave them a wonderful birthday party at a banquet hall in McCook. The meal was awesome. We had soup, salad, rolls, pasta, beef, chicken, carrots, potatoes, and cake and ice cream for dessert. I made good choices but I also enjoyed a taste of Chief's chocolate cake and a bit of carrot cake. By the way, the cake was from Sam's Club and it was really good.
Today I went to Arlington Heights to meet some old friends for breakfast at Walker Brothers Pancake House. We meet once a month. My good friend and I share a birthday. She will be 60 and I will be 37. It's kind of cool how when you are an adult the age of your friends does not matter.
When I got home we took out the mountain bikes and went to WFG. My first loop on the year on the bike. We decided not to do 2 loops because both of us are tired from the run yesterday. Chief also is still riding his bike to work and he wants fresh legs for the morning. I think that he plans on riding just a few more days because it gets dark earlier now that the clocks changed. My knee was a little sore riding. I have noticed that it is bothering me just a little more than last week. I have been spinning more and I think I need to go lighter on the resistance. The pain is more lateral which is the ITB stuff. Where Dr. E injected it is fine.
We got new cell phones. I just spent an hour trying to find a ring tone because the ones that came with the phone suck. So, when you call I get to hear "Spirit in the Sky". I love that song. I have told Chief that when I die he has to play it at my funeral. I am not joking.
I just have to get through Monday and then I get to drive up north to see Neil Diamond with my mom and sister. I seriously can't wait.
