a little update

on friday we drove by the runners doing the deseret news marathon, and I was a little sad in my heart that I can't even really run right now. but also very excited that one day I'll be able to run a marathon again. it's a crazy thing, that marathon. it's a siren song of pain and beauty -- perhaps a lot like chidbirth? we shall see. . .

as for an update with my kenyan: I haven't been doing a whole lot. I can't run, but it's too hot for that anyway. I haven't made it to the pool in a long time, because after work I just want to go home. I do, however, do a lot of walking at work, so I definitely count that. even though I've gained what seems like a gadjillion pounds, I don't feel heavy or that uncomfortable and it seems (for now) that my belly is just growing and not really the rest of my body. thank you for small miracles in my life.
