Beginners and Beyond

Wednesday Penguins are a little creeped out! (Read 15 times)


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.

      Because of the number of spiders and other bugs I've encountered, indoors and outdoors, in the past few days.  I'm not fond of multi-legged monsters, and they seem to be out to get me.  One even came dropping down from the ceiling to land on my computer yesterday!  So I texted my husband:

       

      Along came a spider

      And sat down beside her,

      And Miss Muffet grabbed a Kleenex and squished his spider ass!!

          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.

            Totally read that as "I have 8 with spiders tonight."

              LOL. I had to re read it to make sure I didn't actually say that.  Haha.

                6 on the TM. It's 92 feels like 95 outside. Summer has arrived. No spiders, fortunately.
