Had a much better run tonight, even though my hips were hurting most of the run. I timed it perfect the wind didn't start until the very end of my run, and the rain started on the drive home :) I have to hurry I'm taking my youngest daughter to my oldest daughter's house. They are going on a  Disney cruise tomorrow. It's my oldest daughter anniversary. So my youngest daughter will be there to help with the kids and babysit when they go out.

Nice tempo run and great splits. Hope the hips feel better.

Great miles, Lor. Can I call you Lor?

That was a pretty speedy run. Way to beat the wind and the rain. I think they're coming for me tomorrow.

In the future can you please give us a little better notice on any cruises your kids might be taking? I am really good at tending kids and laying in the sun.

Oh, and great run today.

How fun for your daughters! I want to go, I will even babysit!

Great running this week!

Jun, I'll keep that in mind next time they are going.

Both daughters were very excited, plus the grandkids and son-in-law. Whats fun is that my youngest daughter dose not really remember our family vacation there when she was a little girl. So it will be fun for her. There is a big age gap between my girls.

From jun on Wed, Apr 29, 2009 at 16:08:42 from 66.239.250.209

That will be a lot of fun for them. We are planning our first Disneyland trip next summer, when the kids are just a little bit older.

My daughters are 12 years apart. The youngest (who is only four) will be a great babysitter for her big sister.

From Metcalf Running on Thu, Apr 30, 2009 at 09:40:04 from 207.225.192.66

Kelli, that is how far apart my girls are :) Then two boys in the middle 5 years apart. My youngest does babysit for the oldest daughter quite a bit.
