Regarding Anniversaries

OMG how did I manage to forget our wedding anniversary's coming up? Perhaps because we USUALLY choose something we're going to do months in advance. Or it could be that I just finished wrapping up her birthday (and she LURVES her flat panel display yay me) and my own is coming up and work is all a-twitter and oh come on there really aren't any justifiable excuses, are there? Anyway, I (obviously) need to figure something out.

OH there's another anniversary today. I forget this one too, if that's any comfort.




About which I won't do much crowing, save to say
1) The first hundred days were--by far--still the toughest and
2) In January, I was becoming deeply concerned that I wouldn't last this long

That's all for now..

ETA: Okay perhaps I lied about the crowing. Not crowing per se...but I trained Friday for an upcoming half-marathon and got myself back in the hunt, time-wise. Friday I ran 12.5 miles in 2:07, versus an atrocious 3:01 the week before. I think the previous session's heat, poor nutrition, sagging motivation and my head in the wrong place all conspired against me.

Of course, getting a time back in my average range tempts me to strive for that elusive sub two-hour event time again...which I really shouldn't do. It only ends in tears. I missed it last year by 2 minutes, 27 seconds and that only upsets me. Never mind that I'm damn near 45 years old and post two minor left knee surgeries. I still wind up feeling I'm not good enough.
