Not much time to write right now

But there are a whole bunch of things that have been popping up in the last few days where I've thought "ohhh, I need to write about this."

So I'm just going to make a list. For me, it's so I don't forget. For anybody reading, it's a preview of what's to come in the next week or so. It will also be an attempt for me to keep practicing word limits on what I write so that I can get through my list.

-PERSIMMONS ARE FINALLY IN SEASON! I found the best recipe for a fall salad last year that uses persimmons and it is one of the most amazing things I think I've ever made. Must post recipe (and make it so that I can have pictures!)

-Spinning victory - hour class has been granted, woo!!

-Other recipes from this week: Glazed pork/broccoli/Brussels sprout dinner, mmmm...and Orange-glazed pork chops with buttered noodles....mmm!

-Swimming. Frustrating. Feel SO slow. Not really that slow, but when I swim in the 'faster' lane with Tom and Laura and Susan I feel sooooo slow. How can this be all at once so satisfying and frustrating? Neither cycling nor running does this to me.

-Cross Country thoughts/race reviews. I think my running is improving?

-Positive vs. negative thoughts and outlooks and how it affects us every day.

-List of things I want to buy (but have no money for!).

-Pilates?

I think that's it...for now. But I guess I'd better get writing if I'm going to get through all of this!

And to finish...some timely cards to lighten the mood about our fabulous economy...
