Sparks from yesterday

First exciting moment from yesterday-I have been using 2 phone apps for my outdoor runs. Both have been varying so much I decided that I was going to breakdown and buy a Garmin Forerunner 10. I was really excited to use it on my run today. Yesterday's runs varied from 4.4 to 4.9. Well using the Garmin, I now know that it was 4.4 miles. Today's run was 5.2 miles. Do I like the Garmin compared to the phone apps. YES! 100%! I get distracted by texts, or the stupid phone app telling me my miles. All I have to do now is look down at my wrist. I also get to see my time.

Second excitement-I signed myself up for 2 5ks yesterday. One is a daytime run-The Color Run, the other is NeonVibe. I did the Neon last year with Matt and loved every min of it! Matt showed interest in running both with me, so I hunted down a babysitter. I found out this am that I have a sitter, and he can run with me. YAY!!

On to other things cause the run part is boring to some. My cross-stitching. I worked on it for a little while last night. I didn't get much done but I got some done.

After:

I didn't really do much yesterday except the fun hurry up and get all the housework done so you can sit on your butt the rest of the day. Somewhere along the way I got caught up in that stupid Facebook and lost some of the day. I HATE that. I'm trying to get off it more and enjoy the day more. The rest of today will hopefully get a lot of reading done. My personal goal this month is getting 20 books read. I'm behind on my reading challenge for the year. I need to kick it into gear. I'm trying to get 100 book read this year. Wish me luck.....

Have a wonderfully blessed day!!
