A Thanksgiving Weekend - Part I, Saturday

8:06am It's a day to sleep in today, for which I am grateful, as these days are rare. My throat feels a little sore and I wonder if I'm coming down with something.

9:10am Back from my Mile. Did a lasagna Mile today - one lap jog, one lap walk, one lap jog, one lap walk. Could tell on my first lap I wasn't in good form today. I got a late start. At eight, it was already full bright and muggy and people were up and about. Now when did I become the kind of person who thinks that dong my Mile at eight on a Saturday was a late start?

6:44pm J and I had some errands to run at Best Buy so we brought our baby niece with us. J had her things to get and I had mine so she went off to look for her stuff and I brought my niece with me to look for my stuff. So I'm walking along one of the aisles with her and there's a couple with a young boy walking towards us. The boy looked about the same age as my niece and was about the same size. As they walked past us, I watched to see how the two kids would react to each other. I saw the boy stop when he walked past my niece, he turned and looked at her. He was checking her out! I looked at his parents and they laughed and I laughed. "He must like her dress," I said. She did look pretty in her red dress (it's the one J and I gave her last Christmas). Only two and she's already turning heads. That's my niece.
