So I came up to Pocatello for a few days to spend some time with my mom (who is here from Florida) and my dad (who has already returned to Florida), and my sister, and my BFF Becky if she ever comes back from Red Fish Lake. Anyway I have been training for the Hobble Creek Half Marathon-i did my first 10 miles on Saturday, which is kind of hard to do in Pocatello because it's probably only 10 miles long, but after running all around our neighborhood area and running all around ISU and up and down streets, I did it, and met my mom and sister to watch the Pioneer Day Parade-which we love-it's short, not a lot of problems getting a spot, and it's fun to see people you know.
Monday I set my alarm to get up and go running, just a 4 miler this time, and I had a really hard time waking up. I finally got out of bed thinking i'd take the day off, but I went outside and found it cloudy with a slight breeze and the smell of rain in the air. Perfect running weather. So I went. And when I got back I had to take pictures. I love where our house is, I think it's so beautiful and quiet. I love running in Pocatello,
mostly because again it's quiet, and I know the streets from all the inspections I used to do, and it's really pretty in a southeastern Idaho desert kind of way. I always think that it would be fun to still live here, if only they didn't have such a sucky hospital....
This is puppy, who after I went running I tried to take outside with me to drink water and play with the ball. Puppy was over it after 10 seconds and proceeded back to the front door where she would take turns staring at the door and at me, to let me know she was over it. Sad.

My sweet little angel....who since Dad left has decided to ditch me and now sleeps with Mother. Every night. Butthole.
That is amazing that you can run 10 miles- I think I would pass out on the side of the road! Tell you mom hi for me- and tell jenna to add me to her blog so I can see what she has been up to! I miss you!
