Running

I love to go for runs. I love running outside. I dislike running hills. I dislike running on treadmills.

this morning i decided to run myself over to the Boyds post office because Jans & I needed to get some pictures in the mail to his mom. i guess somewhere in my mind I forgot that we live in the hilly-est place EVER!! Not to mention I totally underestimated the distance to the post-office. SO, I decided on the way back that I was going to take a "short cut", or what I thought would be a short cut on a trail through the woods back to my parents house. Little did I know where that trail would end. It dropped me off here



I had no idea where I was! Luckily there was a fabulous little map and I can I please tell you that I was NO WHERE near home. The trail I had just taken was a mile and it took me in the opposite direction as home. Jans is at work, mom is in New York, dad was not answering the phone so it was onward or nothing. I figured out which way home was and started running again. Luckily, about 10 minutes later I saw this



a very familiar sight which I was thankful for! I had been to this bridge before and finally knew where I was. As I was crossing the bridge I finally got ahold of dad and he picked me up about a half mile later.

I have to say it was a fabulous run! loved it. next time maybe i'll even do it on purpose!

Now I am off to study for my final. It is Monday at noon and can I please tell you that I am counting down the minutes until 2:40 when that test is over, I know my score, and I am FREE for the summer?!?! I am SOOO excited!
