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.
It's National Mousse Day, which is of course not the same as Moose Day, but who doesn't love a good homophone?? Which reminds me, I have a plan to make some dark chocolate mousse in my quest for a triple chocolate cheesecake, but I also have a lot of fresh cranberries, so I thought I'd make cranberry-orange cookies this weekend.
I have a busy weekend planned. All home stuff, which is nice, but I doubt I'll get more than half of it done. Chorus performance tonight, woo-hoo!! Christmas music for a retirement facility. That's always a nice thing.
Morning! Court all morning. Then Pilates and maybe a run. Heading to see Lady Gaga in concert tonight so I might not have time.
HopesMom, enjoy the performance and weekend!
Bugsy is home.

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.

Yay for Bugsy!!!
HopesMom - have fun at your performance this evening. Enjoy your baking.
D - enjoy your concert, if you can get tickets. This is a recovery week, so missing a run or two isn't a big deal.
Oh we got tickets a year ago, we are so excited! It’s sold out!
