So Wednesday's blog entry was supposed to be on Thursday. Oops.

Anyway, I was going to go out running after Simeon went to bed last night. While I was putting him to bed I was thinking to myself, "It's still light enough to go running." But I was pretty worn out. I spent the day in the temple with my parents (from 10:30 - 4:00). We did a bunch of family names starting with baptisms. And I was enjoying visiting with them so I didn't go out.

I had a visiting teaching appointment at Denny's this morning and since I had family in town my partner said I didn't have to come along if I was too busy. I also didn't want to go eat at Denny's and leave my company home with cold cereal. So I got up and made waffles this morning and ate with my family. I was hoping to get done around 8:30 and to meet up with Ruth and Candice at Denny's, but we didn't finish eating until 9. So I ran, to Denny's (literally) and they were still there. Jackie was there too but I don't know if she saw me. I waved though. They were just finishing their food but we stayed and chatted for a bit. I'm glad I was able to get in on the visit. Then I ran home.

It's funny, my visiting teaching partner Ruth just thinks it is so amazing that I run, and she is always saying that I run marathons. I keep trying to tell her that a 5k is MUCH different than a marathon and that you'd never catch me running 26 miles, but she still always says "So are you running any more marathons?" Today she told Candice "Kristina runs marathons!" She is so funny. I guess if people want to think I'm a good runner then so be it. Little do they know how terrible I really am :)

Man, I didn't see you. Was that while we were still sitting there, or when we were leaving. I can't believe I didn't see you. We left at 9:15 to get me late to my Republican County Convention. Sorry to hear on your family blog that Jason and JoVanna left already. I was looking forward to them coming over tomorrow.
