Hey, it's hot out

I've been getting up at the crack of dawn for the past several days to run/walk because I don't know if you noticed but IT'S HOT OUT. Why can't we get a gradual increase of temperature? Last week it was like 60 degrees!? I hate how ILlinois always does this too me. A couple good weeks of spring and then BAM SUMMER IN YOUR FACE SUMMER. (although last summer was pretty cool...so at least Illinois was nice to me while I was pregnant)

I've discovered something about myself upon waking around 5 or 4:30. I have a much more productive day! I don't feel tired all day and I'm not as cranky.
Now how does that work since I don't sleep through the night (thanks Violet).
It must be my new running attitude. :)

I can almost run my route half-way through now. I have to walk it the rest of the way. I think that by the end of summer I will be able to do it.

I took Bella with me again today....she didn't try to sabotage me as much but she just totally refused to jog. It's against her moral code I guess. She would start and then just stop and sit down. COME ON YOU ARE A DOG!!! WHAT THE HECK!?

There are other people out walking this early too! They seem surprised to see me when they run into me, so I guess they aren't new to this like I am. Either that or they are just schocked by how absurd I look....
