Others writing the Sunday Somethings: Kerry
Something that makes me happy: Spending time with family.
Something sad: My great-grandmother passed away this week at the age of 103 years young. She was a great lady and had a wonderful life. I am lucky to have known her.
Something tasty: Mom’s homemade Hungarian Coffee Cake. Especially good when you are “hungary”.
Something from the bridge table: Lots of practicing lately, knocking the rust off and hoping to play our best this weekend.
Something i am reading: Winterdance: The Fine Madness of Running the Iditarod, by Gary Paulsen.
Something happening around the house: New paint on the walls, but we still have crap absolutely everywhere b/c it’s not yet complete. Hopefully tomorrow it will all be done and we can reclaim our kitchen and living room.
Something i am thinking: I have been in love with the idea of the Iditarod lately, maybe even toying with the idea of trying it myself one day if i could ever have the luxury of time and money. But reading this book… perhaps not. It sounds sooo difficult, primarily b/c the mushers apparently have little to no control over the dogs.
Something i am looking forward to: A zip line adventure at The Beanstalk Journey in Morganton.
Something i am hoping: To qualify for nationals at this weekend’s Grand National Teams competition.
Something random: I am no longer caught up with laundry.
Something planned: A book club meeting to discuss Henrietta Lacks and her cells.
Something captured: This photo is from the Run for the Oaks 5K in March. It has taken forever to get it uploaded from my temperamental phone. The sign says iRunForFood. I encourage you all to check out their site and see what they stand for. I, and many other runners, am dedicating my race miles this year to the iRunForFood campaign to end world hunger. Visit my individual page to sponsor me in my quest to run 50 race miles this year, or make a general donation.
