Feeling faster and FASTER!!!!

SPLITS MILE TIME AVG. PACE 1 9:11 9'11"/mi 2 18:37 9'26"/mi 3 27:41 9'03"/mi 4 37:00 9'20"/mi 5 46:18 9'18"/mi 6 55:07 8'48"/mi It may not have been my fastest average, but it felt pretty good for a 6 mi run. I think I was most pleased to see an 8:48 split on my last mile. I'm ready for that 1/2 MARATHON on 3/4/12. Because it is my very first HALF MARATHON, I don't have big goals, but seeing that I can keep my average under 10 per mile (I did it last week with my 13.2 mi run), I would like to see a finish with an average under 10. BRING IT ON!!!!!

1 dog, 2 rabbits, 1 frog, 2 cats, and 3 bunnies ...

And all I really want to claim is the dog, the 2 rabbits, and the frog. How do I have so many pets you ask? This cat keeps showing up.  He told a friend and that friend told a friend.  Sometimes I see 4 cats on my property, but for the most part it is this guy (Barney) and his friend who hangs out near our garage.  He likes to come in and sleep on our warm couch in the sun room.  My girls love him  ... all except my oldest, Emily. Then there is the 3 bunnies.  WHAT!  Bunnies again?!?!?!?Yes, I thought I would be nice and help clean out the bunny hutch when all of a sudden I saw 3 slightly hairy, blind baby bunnies squirming around.  I really would love to shout out a good EXPLETIVE, but I guess it is my fault.  We really thought we had 2 girl bunnies and didn't want to spend the money on spaying.  OOPS! So ... on Monday Holly (let's just call him Hollister now) is going in for a neutering procedure.  He is now separated...
