Happy Valentine’s Day
woo hoo. Seriously. LOL! Not that it matters a whole lot, I’m happily single. But I really do dislike how commercialized the whole thing has become, it’s just whack. And that’s about all I got to say about THAT! ;)
Running
Woo Hoo!!! Weather was simply *perfect* for a run today. I took Leonardo out for a 3 mile run this morning. Yeah, it’s been too long since I’ve run – my fitness has really suffered already. *sigh* But, hey, I got them done and I feel great! Leonardo had a really good time & we really didn’t get any lengthy stops along the way. He’s getting back into his running training, where he’s relearning to not go after squirrels and such along the way… he gets distracted, but I just tell him “uh-uh” and he keeps on going. Yay! We did get the usual amount of comments & exclamations (“holy shit” seems to be the most common, actually!), of course.
Knitting
Yeah, I haven’t done much lately. Spent time online & reading lately, so have accomplished very little knitting. I did get some gorgeous leftover sock yarn from one of my fellow RnRs, though – and I promptly knitted up one little fish for my fish blanket. w00t! It is just teh awesome & has all my fave colors!! HerOwnWings – you rawk! ;)
See? GORGEOUS, isn't it?!

Knit Run, Purl Run 
What are people saying holy s*** about? Leo going after squirrels or the fact that a large dog is running with you?
“Yeah, it’s been too long since I’ve run” – I know how you feel. Do you have a spare ankle that I could borrow?

J – LOL! It’s always his size that amazes/shocks people. Danes are big dogs, true, but Leonardo is an extra large one on top of it. Put a 200 lb dog next to a a woman small enough to be a kid and even I can admit we probably look kind of funny. he he he
I’m so sorry about the ankle – I would totally loan ya one if I had a spare! ;)

Good for you for finally getting into gear again. I am still coughing too much to even think about it!
As for knitting I have days (rare as they are tough ;-) when I just don’t feel like knitting much…
Faboulus socks there! You know I always thought I am not much of a “green” person, but I am knitting my third (or fourth if I count the noro scarf and the knucks) green item in a row…

I was actually very surprised by the number of shamrock sock patterns I found!! I didn’t even post them all, either. :D No worries on getting out the door, A – you’ll get better soon & will be able to get out for some good exercise. ;)
