It's too early for it to be this COLD!

Have I told you how much I hate winter?!! I grew up here, but lived most of my adult life in Washington DC, until I had my daughter 5 years ago. I love being close to family, but I CAN'T STAND THIS COLD!! I miss DC where seasons were true to their calendar starts - winter didn't start til Dec 22 and by March 20 it was Spring without fail! Of course it went from pleasant to BLAZING HOT by June, but Fall lasted... never any snow before the New Year. How can we be expecting another 4-8 inches on Friday? How can it be -4 ! YUCK!! The worst is that we're driving to PA to meet my in-laws on Friday during the storm... Great. We can't leave sooner because we have to kennel the dog - who I love dearly after just one month and feel terrible that she'll be someplace strange for 4 days, wondering if we've given her away too... UGH!

On a brighter note, I have been running awesome this week! Yesterday I finished my 4 miles in 45:30 ! That included my walk breaks every 9 minutes! 11:36 pace, and a personal best! I am thinking that Galloway is a smart man!

Keep warm!
