Wow.  Long time no post.  Sorry about that.

Well, yesterday was Thanksgiving.  It wasn't too bad actually.  I'm in a better place this year than I was last year.  Still not where I want to be, but it's better.

I started off the day running a 10k.  I haven't really seriously run in about a year and then I randomly decide to run 6.2 miles.  I'll just say that there were a lot of walk breaks.  The weather was gorgeous so that helped and I was running with a friend.

After the race we went to my dad's house to spend Thanksgiving with them.  We ate lunch, then my dad and I watched Saving Private Ryan.  (I know that's random, but I'd never seen it).  My brothers showed up after that and we played cards for a while.  It was a pretty laid-back Thanksgiving, but we enjoyed it.

We got home around 8:30 loaded down with leftovers.  I was exhausted.  I thought it was just because of the 10k that I ran on a whim that morning.  It was that, plus I started my period.  I had no idea.  No cramps at all.  It looks like the surgery I had in October was a success.  Normally, I would be laid up in bed on painkillers.  Not this time though.  That's something to be thankful for!
