Keep Running Girl

I know you all have been waiting with bated breath to hear about my jaw. I'm sorry to keep you in suspense! It was not scooped. It was scraped. And they didn't cut in through the side of my jaw, they drilled THROUGH THE CROWN to get to the infection. It was so much worse that I thought. And it wasn't a small infection, it was, according to the doctor, "massive". So right now, the void in my jaw is packed with some kind of medicine and I will have to keep going back to have it scrapped and repacked until it heals. Which also is so much worse than I thought because - on the first Mon

If people start buying me dogs because I was wearing shorts with dogs on them, I would not be mad at it.

Your computer is accurate and I AM looking longingly at such an ugly pair of shorts. Sadly (thankfully?) I only run in spandex/bicycle type shorts so these wouldn’t work for despite the god awful pattern. Sigh

I had covid in March and I am still struggling with running. I can’t tell if I am just out of shape or it is still a side effect but despite several attempts to get back to running, it hasn’t gotten any easier no matter how slow I go. I feel you about the country and about depression. This year has been a struggle. Hopefully we can start to clean up some of the damage now.

They are amazing! It has been years and people in my life are still giving me things in pineapple print or shaped like pineapples because they think I REALLY like them.

I have SO many ugly running tights! They make my heart happy. I’ll have to rustle up some pics.

I hope so! I almost wrote something to that effect in my bloop but I was afraid to jinx myself 🙁

Thank you!

Thank you!! 😂

Thanks! It was better and worse than I expected.

Omg! I love your Christmas sweater!!

My partner’s family doesn’t speak much English.

Thank you!

Wise words. Happy New Year, Gary! I hope it’s a good one.

I’ve been keeping Char in my thoughts.

Kösönöm!

I wrote out some resolutions for the year. Nothing crazy. 1. Spend 20 minutes a day studying Hungarian. 2. Run at least 3 times a week (even if I am slow). 3. Eat better. 4. Start backpacking (this spring). 5. Spend less time at the office. Well, I am writing this from my desk at the office on a Sunday, while eating peppermint bark, my run tomorrow and probably for the week is postponed due to an emergency oral surgery first thing in the morning and Magyar nagyon nehéz. Aki tudta? So all in all it’s going better than 202

I swear I posted this yesterday but it never posted... I never thought I would go this long without posting. I guess it kind of snowballed. Or the opposite of snowballed, I guess. More and more of life happened but the less I had to say about it, I guess. But I made so many friends here. And I am still bitter that RW purged everything while I was on vacation and I lost years worth of posts. So, for as long as Cliff will allow it, I will do my best to post somewhat regularly.

I'm really happy that this will keep going for the time being. I'll try to post regularly. I know it has been dying for years but I don't think I'll ever be ready to see it disappear. The thought of that hurts my heart.

I was about to comment on this too! That is pure grit!

This makes me so happy to read!!! Go get it!!!!

Great goals!!! I love #1!

Sorry to hear about Sammy! I hate how the countdown keeps going. Hope it heals quickly!

Great goals!!! Maybe we'll have another runner in VT?

Glad to hear that the foot is improving!!!
