Hello everyone,
Happy New Year! It is a gift to open my new running book and be able to fill out pages with the miles that I call running. I am most thankful for the doctors and treatments that enable this routine to continue. After the cataract surgery on Dec. 18, running was not allowed for seven days, so I had an excuse for just walking, but now that we are beyond the 7 days, I have been trying to pick up the pace.
We had a wonderful Christmas in Chicago. Shortly after arriving on Dec. 24, Roy and I walked on the icy sidewalks to the El stop about 6 blocks from Jim's house and rode to Michigan Ave. to the 4th Presbyterian Church for their third of four services that evening. The last two are Lessons and Carols, just like home only with about 2000 people in attendance. When we started from Jim's house the temperature was 7 degrees and dropped to 3 by the time we got back home. What a challenge! Helps us get prepared for skiing in Montana on January 18.
I hope all of you had a blessed Christmas and New Year's of 2009. Many people face a lot of challenges in this year ahead, but stay positive. "Look at the sunny side of everything and make your Optimism come true." I continue to appreciate your good thoughts and prayers.
Margaret
