- Recovery from the half last weekend has been slow go. Probably because of being cramped in the car for so long on the long drive home. I usually like to go for an easy run shortly after a race to loosen up, but I wasn't able to run until Thursday. In my line of work, an ice storm makes for LONG, STRESSFUL days, so after working 12 hour days Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, I did nothing but come home and drink wine. A run was nowhere on my radar. I only ran two Thursday and then 5.5 on Sunday. I had planned on 7 or 8, but my hammies and calves were STILL super fatigued, so I cut it short at 5.5 and walked 2 more. I think that may have done some good.
- In all my wine drinking last week I found one I didn't like: Cupcake Vineyards' Angel Food. It is NOT as good as it sounds. I loooooove Cupcake's moscato, so I was really disappointed in this one!
- I did another volunteer transport for Kindred Hearts Friday night. Eight more babies out of high-kill shelters in the south and in a New York-based rescue!
- One week after the ice storm hit and hung around most of last week, after a weekend in the 50s and 60s, this is what is left of it.

A few piles of nasty, dirty muck in the corners of parking lots. |
- Since my truck took such good care of me, I showed her a little TLC this weekend in return.

Squeaky clean! |
