To Run or Not to Run... ?

I have always wanted to run in a marathon. I used to talk to an old friend all the time about running a marathon together. She used to write a calender of training that she wanted to do, and I would always say that we would do one together one day. Well, unfortunately life decided her fate early and we would never get the chance to run a marathon together. I now feel that this is something I should do in her memory. Yet, I fear I will not be able to finish or accomplish it and will let her down. I know if I put my mind to it, I can do it, but I want this to be something for her. I want the charity the money I raise to go to something she would believe in, I want to work hard and train and make a calender and stick to it, because that is what she would have done. I have all these fears built up that by finally deciding the cherish her memory in some way I will mess it up.

So now I must decide, what marathon I should devote my time to... And; "To Run or Not to Run"

Dating in the 21st Century

Oh Grandma...
So I received an email from my grandma today that read this:

"Grandpa and I saw 'He's Just Not that Into You' the other day- I thought dating when I was young and again after divorce was hard but today has to be the worst. Men seem to get more difficult as time goes by. Thank heavens for Grandpa. Good luck to you and all the other singles."

Umm.. Thanks Grandma, for letting me know what I already knew. Men are difficult, and I need luck to find a good one...

Now I am going to go have a beer....
