My eyesight went downhill quickly after 50! DOH! Great workouts this week and that sounds like a fun trip to see meet some new running friends! I need to type up a weekly schedule. That will keep me from overdoing it... because you know, that's easy to do :)TechChickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11960422420943812763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5884362622170497685.post-42503896919093177562020-06-22T22:05:08.861-05:002020-06-22T22:05:08.861-05:00Two of our kids' birthdays are in July (the 5t...Two of our kids' birthdays are in July (the 5th and the 16th).

Must have felt good to get out of town.<br /><br />I missed the link-up this week as I just finally got a post up. Still planning to catch up on everyone's week! I feel the same way about Summer Solstice and even more so about the 4th of July.
