These Boots Were Made For Running

It was just the slightest bit cooler today (thanks to the God-sent rain that we finally got yesterday... and later tonight), so I thought, "Why not? I'll take Coop & Kona for a run outside." I left dinner on the stove while I was out, though (well, Jon was watching it... kinda), so I only did the first mile out there. And who knows how long it took?! Because I don't have a stupid stopwatch! But it was... well, okay. Not great... because SE Georgia is a freakin' sauna... but okay.

Anyway, I ran the 2nd mile inside on my fancy treadmill with its bells & whistles (including the built-in fan to keep my hair out of my face). Since I had no idea how long the first mile took, I was too lazy on the second. Drawback of running outside. Ugh.

So, I was organizing in my closet today and started playing in my shoes. I don't wear very many of them (or many of my clothes)... since I work from home and all... but I still like them and would have a hard time tossing them. But I was trying. When Jon made a comment about me having too many, I counted. Anyone want to guess how many pairs of shoes I have? 15, 30, 50, 75, 95, 125, 200? It's one of those numbers. :) Anyway... I was trying very hard to clean out and pare down... and I was pretty successful. I thoroughly enjoy preparing boxes for Goodwill!

This must be THE weekend for good movies. I ♥ Ricky Bobby. Those kids are so funny! I swear... the younger one is a mini-dad... I could just imagine. This blows, Grandma Vicki. How long do we have to pick up trash by the side of the road? Well, little Elster, when are you boys going to stop tossing Grandma the radio in the bathtub?

Okay, well, Coop & I are tired. We had a bike ride and a run earlier. (Coop also had a swim in the pond... just think, if I had made it to the pool -- like I was considering doing -- earlier, I would've had quite the triathlon day!) Nighty night.
