Long weekend, 3 miler, and blond(er) hair

I had such a great, long weekend. Friday, Jeremy and I crashed early. I think we were both worn out from our busy weeks. Saturday, I picked up the house and did a little shopping. Then we watched football with Nathan. They supported the Hogs - and I got reprimanded for wearing my Texas shirt. Whatever - they're lucky I at least cheer for the Hogs, but only when they're not playing TX. :)

Sunday, we made a quick trip out to the farm to look at game camera pictures and then headed to TX. There were some good pictures this week, just as there were last week. I'm just hoping all the deer stick around so Jeremy can have a good season. We had lots of fun and good food in TX. There's always good food when we go home. I think it's just because I'm not the one preparing it. Ha! I think B really enjoyed all his gifts, as did Melanie, mom and dad. I really enjoyed hanging out with everyone and can't wait to do it again.

Today was another 3 mile run. I really pushed myself and feel great about it. I'm pretty sure this was my fastest run yet - I'm not posting the time though because it's still not good! I am getting there though. The heat and humidity are definitely back, not nearly as bad as it was, but still pretty bad. I'm surviving though and that's all I can do. Tomorrow is a 2 mile or cross train. I'm thinking about just riding the bike. Hal Higdon suggests that as a great cross train exercise for runners - plus it will keep me from getting out in the heat!

The "blond(er)" comment in the title is referring to my freshly highlighted hair. While in TX, mom highlighted it for me. I like it. It's not really a huge difference, but I think that was a smart go for the first time doing it. Maybe next time I'll go a little more.

So, it was a fun filled, busy, and hot weekend. Now, back to the grind. Running this morning, completed. Work, then dance tonight.
