Singer who runs a smidge
The "Penguin" daily threads were originally conceived to emphasize that all members of the community have a place on the boards. Encouragement, motivation, a little love nip (you will love one, give it a try!) or even a little kick in the pants when needed -- it can happen here. Basically, we celebrate just getting out there and moving our tails! What is "slow"? "Slow" is a perception but one of the common benchmarks is the 10:00/mi pace; but there's no firm line. In fact, there are many of us that have slipped past this, and just hope that no one notices and revokes their "igloo privileges." And some penguins don't run at all, we just hang out for the company! It can be confusing for the forum newbies, but we're not one of the teams in any of the fine games. It's a totally open group, so stop lurking, post an introduction of yourself dive in and join the fun! No application necessary! There might even be a lovely picture for Scotty (we love pics!)
When it's all said and done, no one remembers how far we have run. The only thing that matters is how we have loved.
Well, we had a new guest at chorus rehearsal last night, and she was lovely. But when we all dispersed to the parking lot to leave, she found that someone had smashed in her driver's side window and stolen her purse from her car. The rest of us I guess know not to leave anything in our cars -- it's an urban area and the church where we practice has had break-ins before. But new girl had stuffed her purse under her car seat, and apparently left a strap visible, and that was that.
So since we all stood around commiserating, waiting for the cops, then commiserating some more, I got home a little late and am consequently a little fuzzy this morning.
Which is unfortunate, because I have to hurry off to an early seminar. Wish me wakefulness!!
Morning! I had PT this morning, and managed to get to my own meeting of creditors (the one I'm conducting, not attending) late, thanks traffic. I have Pilates tonight.
HopesMom, ugh. That sucks for her.

As part of the 2024 London Marathon, I am fundraising for VICTA, a charity that helps blind and visually impaired children. My mentor while in law school, Jim K (a blind attorney), has been a huge inspiration and an example of courage and perseverance. Please consider donating.
