Yikes! D’s bday is coming up in two weeks and he doesn’t know what he wants!

Yes – you read that correctly – HE doesn’t know what he wants!

So…I’m putting it out into cyberspace…any suggestions on what D should get for his bday?

Great run this morning with the “Runner In Training” (RIT).

Like yesterday, we alternated running two miles and walking one mile. But we added on an extra “set.” Here’s what we did:

• Walk 5 minutes
• Run 2 minutes / walk 1 minute for 24 minutes (that makes 8 sets of run 2 / walk 1)
• Walk 5 minutes

She did great! I think it will be good for us to stick to this pattern for about another week and just increase the overall number of sets. Her endurance is definitely building! 

Some bummer news…

Marty has a hard little lump near her right shoulder blade. I found it yesterday while we were doing our morning snuggles. It’s not a benign fatty tumor – I know what those feel like and this wasn’t that. So I took her to the vet today and he aspirated the lump, but the immediate result was inconclusive. So the sample is being sent to a lab and we’ll find out on Wednesday what’s going on. Please send Marty good healing energy.
