1 Month

How can it be the end of January already?! Remember when you were in elementary school and each year really did feel like an eternity? Everything could change in the 6 weeks between report cards, and by that time you barely even remembered who you’d been 6 weeks before.
I think I still manage to pack lots of life into my time, but it seems to zip by at an ever quickening pace and I’m not sure if it’s that I’m finally becoming an American or just older (maybe a bit wiser…but don’t hold me to that).
So since I last found time to sit down and write I’ve:
-picked my oh so lovely brother up from the airport
-enjoyed having a crazy swimming buddy again (see above) who’s willing to jump into Barton Springs, McKinney Falls, our lake…in December
-spent a week back in good ole East TX
-went to Beth & Matthews wedding (and danced with both the bride and groom, not at the same time)
-hiked up to the highest point in TX
-camped in below freezing conditions with very limited camping supplies
-made s’ mores with x-mas tree peeps
-transferred all my work webpages from one site to another, organized a rappelling cleanup, and realized I’ve already got projects that I’m working on for the fall
-done 2 live broadcasts and 3 other tv interviews (and just a bit of bragging time…was told by one of the camera men that I should consider a job in pr)
-joined the Capital Metro Citizen Advisory Committee
-had the flu
-gave my number to a good looking stranger in a bar, and went out on a date (shocking I know)
-volunteered at 2 tree plantings
-and tomorrow I’m running another half-marathon
Of course I also managed to fit in lots of live music, dinners with friends, and time in coffee shops but somehow I want more. That’s not normal, is it?
