A Long Hot Weekend

Hi!
Well, it was another hot weekend in NC. On Saturday we went to Ellerbe to run the 15 mile Shirt with the Mangum Track Club. It was HOT! But we did it and got our shirts. I ran much of it alone or with Frank so I didn't get to do much socializing but it was still fun and we did get to do some socializing after we finished although some had left. The MTC is a great group and I'm looking forward to going to their events. I'm motivated to get in shape to be able to hang with the best of them. There are a couple of women in their 60s but they didn't run the shirt run or I would have been able to run with them. We did get to meet them and they're very nice and will make great training partners and they also both bike. I also met Chris who does a lot of biking and wants to hook up so I'm looking forward to that.

We slept in this morning (Sunday) and that was a treat. We went to Troy and bought a rug for the dining room. I'm not sure if it "works" or not but we have 7 days to make a decision. It's really nice but.....I'm not sure if I love it enough yet. It's growing on me though and I'll have Caroline come over tomorrow to voice her opinion.

We also met so other neighbors that have a couple of Bichons. They loved Chico and couldn't get over how cute he is. They were very nice and have a beautiful home overlooking the pond on the golf course. A view to die for. Well, maybe not die, but it is very nice.

I'm looking forward to a good week with lots of working out and getting paperwork organized. Still lots to do but it's winding down and shouldn't control our lives. Rudy starts to build the bookcases on Thursday. We're looking forward to having that done as well and then we'll be done for a little while and get start to enjoying more of the area.
