Christmastime-won't be posting for a few days

[marathoner452]

I didn't get everything I wanted for Christmas, but I wanted everything I got. I think that's a pretty good place to be. Here are some of the things I got-What If?, a book about what might have happened had history gone differently, a new Jimmy Buffett CD called American Storyteller (the non-party songs), a new running journal, a couple of new sweaters, new running pants. All very cool stuff.

I also joined two new lj groups:  redcross_ds and making_a_plan. 

In other news, after my 5 mile run today I'm amazed at how quickly I've lost fitness.  Just a month ago I ran a marathon in 4:14, now I can barely run 5 miles without collapsing.  All the more incentive to keep running.  :-)

:-) I'd have to agree--wanting what you have is a much better place to be. I've taken that stance recently, and it really makes things so much better. Makes me treasure things I have and people in my life a lot more. And that especially goes for you. :-)

I don't mean to be creepy, but I like the groups you joined and I've joined them too. Hopefully this is just seen as appreciating your interests and not as a redcross-vista-stalker move :)

Happy hols!

That's not creepy at all-I'm just glad to have found someone else out there who's a fellow Red Cross-VISTA person and who thinks my journal is more interesting than I think it is. :-)

Plus, that's kinda why I posted those groups here anyhow.
