Another busy week, complete with new doors and windows installed at the house (hurray!), family fun down in MA for Thanksgiving, some time off from school and work and some decent, if tired, running too.
Monday, our sliding door was replaced and the original intent was for them to return on Tuesday to finish up the front door and replace all the windwos, but it poured all day long meaning that the install was pushed off until Wednesday. With the nasty weather, I didn't get in a run, but did want to get in some movement, so took a walk on the indoor track during swim practice. (2.1 miles walked)
Wednesday, I got out around 7:15 am to get my run done before the windows/door crew arrived and so that I could move on with the rest of the to-do list. A thin sheen of ice atop all paved surfaces made for a few interesting slips. Otherwise, a pretty if slightly damp feeling morning. Three deer seen. (7.0 miles)
The rest of the day was a mix of cooking and baking on my own in prep for Thanksgiving, getting a few errands done, doing laundry, trying to stay out of the way of the work crew, and then hurridly cleaning and packing once the doors and windows were done so that we could head south to MA in time for dinner. A bit of a whirlwind day but we made it!
Thursday brought with it more rain, so I was not super inspired but got it done. Soggy plodding miles before a day of eating and drinking. Gobble gobble! 🦃🦃(8.0 miles)
Then it was onto cooking, puzzling, some good eating and drinking, and maybe a slight bit of chaos, plus a few forced grandkid photos! 😂A fun Thanksgiving day!
Friday morning, I headed over to Vineyard Hill and Bradley Palmer for a trail run. Nice crisp bright morning. (10.0 miles)
Then after lunch, we got Irene and Dana's tree up and decorated before moving onto more leftovers and more games! 🎄🎄🎄
Did not sleep well at all Friday night, so I chose a bit more sleep over getting up early to get in a run before we headed home. So instead of a tired morning run, I had a tired afternoon run looping around Highalnd Green 😆 (6.0 miles)
After my run, I dropped Sam and Anne off at the movies to see Moana 2 and of course they ended up in the arcade after for some video driving fun
Sunday, I got in a few nice miles on the powerlines. Bright sun and crispy crunchy underfoot. (7.0 miles)
Then it was off to sit in on one of Sam's final drives before she gets her permit! She did a great job, and I only felt anxious a few times in the back seat 😂😱😬
Once the drive was done and we had some lunch, it was off to get a Christmas tree, and with that, poof! It's Christmas! 🎄💗
Can't believe that this week wraps up November and we are now on to December!
