I need a quieter alarm clock!

My alarm clock blasted Jack FM this morning at 5AM and Robin and I both jumped! The only problem is she had another 1.5 hours before she had to get up. I apologized and got up and got moving. I hit the road by 5:30 and got in 4.5 miles and enjoyed running in the dark. The only thing was when I ran past the pound I kept imagining every stick was a snake.

I returned home and everyone was asleep except my baby, Caroline who always is up with the sun. I stretched and stretched and hydrated and took a cool shower. I had to leave early with Robin and Carline so I could get to the car shop and pick up my Mini Cooper. I had four new tires put on, new struts and suspension arms and all the alignment and boy does it glide! It is amazing how well it rides now - no shimmy or shakes! I felt so good I took the Interstate but the JPD were out in force and giving tickets. A person started passing me just as a cop was shooting his radar at me and he pulled over the faster of us two. Whew!

It feels great to get started early and I think I will start rising at 5 again and getting my miles in. I hope all of you are doing well and are staying the course. Let me, Robin or Matt know if we can help and keep blogging and jogging!

I just wish I could win the Jack Jackpot! I could afford for my kids to join us in Chicago.

Thanks for all the encouraging words at the meetings on Saturdays. I will miss the last one but will be with you in spirit.
