Good Day... Rough Run

Well, I had a very productive day.  I got up and did a bunch of "regular" house work around the house.  Then I spent the entire afternoon cleaning our upstairs.  I haven't cleaned up there since I moved in in August 2008 and man, was it dirty!!  It always feels so good to have a clean house.  After Jerod got home from work we went out and did some digging in the garden.  I'm telling you- I don't think I was built to use a shovel.  Maybe all the push ups I am doing will give me some extra arm strength so that I can run a shovel correctly.  While we were working outside, we found an unhatched robin's egg that had blown out of its nest (there was some pretty strong wind here today).  Well, Jerod and I walked down to Shauna's (that's Jerod's sister for those of you who don't know) to see if she would know what to do with it.  Shauna is an animal lover and probably has the knowledge of how to take care of every animal there is.  Funny thing: Parker (Shauna's son) had found a robin's egg as well the day before.  Well, we all weren't too sure what to do, so Jerod and I took Herbert (the name I gave to the egg) back home with us.  Well, Herbert was short lived because Jerod rolled him to me very gently and Herbert busted open.  I almost cried.  We thought that this would be a great time to go for our runs.  Since the wind was really strong like I said before, we went into town to run.  What an awful run.  The wind wasn't as bad, which was a blessing.  But from the very beginning my legs were killing me.  They continued to kill me for the next three miles until I was finished running.  I ran all three miles in the twelve minute range.  Now, for a reward, I'm enjoying a large mug of hot chocolate with marshmallows :)
