"You Don't Know Me" Harry Connick Jr. (cover)

Ray does a memorable job with this tune, but I like Harry's brightness. Take a listen.

Apathy and Peace. Ah, this lover girl is doing well. How about you?

Watching my girl complete her race was one of those things I will never forget. On mile three she saw me, ran up to me crying. I ran with her for a bit as she settled back into the race.

By mile 21, she was doing great and was still going strong. By mile 26 she sprinted to the finish, and completed the race 20 minutes faster than her estimated time. I got in over 6 miles of walking to be sure I could see her at each step of the race.

We decided I would run the 5 or 13.1 K next year. I did have a little FOMO while watching thousands of people giving their all on the run.

Today is my last day scheduled at South. I am actually looking fwd to having some time to finish some projects I started at home. I started decorating for Christmas a bit early. But to be fair, I ordered a pink tree and wanted to set it up early to see how the kitties react to it. I guess if it is down when I get home from school I will have my answer. My Christmas cards are signed, sealed, stamped and ready to go out the day after Thanksgiving. Yes, I have always been this way. No detail is spared when it comes to the most wonderful time of the year!

Enjoy your week in whatever way makes you happy.

Mile 21.5
