This morning I received my first birthday card from a friend in Florida. It was funny and appropriate for my upcoming 70th birthday and it put me in a good mood for the rest of the day. This year, with parties and dinners, I will be celebrating until the end of the month.  As Martha Stuart says, A good thing.” I am going to enjoy every minute.

This afternoon’s training distance was 5 km. It was very foggy, damp, and relatively warm, 25 degrees warmer than it was on Sunday. For the rest of the afternoon I worked on the Camel Spin scarf (pictures tomorrow).
