Pet Peeve

My pet peeve is this mentality-"do as I say not as I do"- example- My folks were heavy cigarette smokers. Two pack a day Chesterfields! That's smokin'!
Yet if we got caught smoking it was a shame! Huh? Needless to say I smoked from the age 12 until about 30.
Today we have T-storms in the area and I need 30 minutes running! Thunder rumbling in the southwest, must be movin' my way. I always say, " never run in T-storms!" So what do I do?........you guessed it...got my 30 in, in the rain, with thunder and at minute 29 a flash right overhead....so..Mark+T-storm= idiot! Next two days no running, but lots of activity! Hope you have a great weekend! Peace!

Sometimes wicked weather just beckons, Mark. And you made it to the very end before lightning struck.

      This is the most wonderful time of year! I love the heat and humidity! Yet I still get out earlier due to my advanced age! 4.4 miles! ...
