1/2 Marathon

I am offically signed up to do my first race ever. I am not a good runner nor will I ever be. God did not give me a runners body. But, I am going to try my darnest to become a runner. My sister, Melinda, Julie and myself are going to run 13.1 miles on June 26. 6 miles is the farthest I have ever ran. I started training about 2 weeks ago then I came down with strep throat this week. I have not have strep since I was 5. Anyways my sister and I still managed to run 4 miles today. Have to start somewhere is what I keep telling myself. This 4 miler was much easier than the 4 we ran on sunday. Even though my sister and I don't talk it is so nice to run with someone.

Now, about this strep throat thing. I went to work monday night and around 10 my throat was a little sore. 11 came around and I could hardley swallow. Then around 1 I started getting a temp. I left at 3 and felt horrible. Rob was really worried about me which I think is sweet. I was burning up all night. Went to the dr. that day and sure enough I had strep. Noone else in my house managed to get it thank goodness.

In other news ROB IS BACK TO WORK!!! He got the call monday to come back to work tuesday. He is working in town and I think that it will be a great opportunity.

The other good news is I have a car!!!! I bought a used Envoy this weekend. I was really nervous about buying something without Rob working but thank goodness I did. For those that don't know Rob and I never seem to do anything in the right order. It is our bad luck. But, I think our luck is changing.
