finally back in the real world
The bathroom remodel is complete. So far everyone who has seen it has loved it. It seems like it took forever, but really it was only a month. I feel a great sense of accomplishment. I guess I wont bore people anymore with rambling on about my bathroom other than to say that old clawfoot tubs are the best thing ever! Other news in my life, is that I am now a runner. I am up to an hour every other day. This sunday I will be going down to Salem with my mother-in-law, who is a marathon runner herself, and will be attending a one day class with running olympian Jeff Galloway. I finally got a good pair of running shoes in anticipation (Asic GT-2100). They have fabulous cushoining, and rigid foot support, which are both good things for me because I come down very heavy on my heels, which is jarring, and causes my arches to flatten out with each step. I also slightly overpronate. By the way, if you are in Portland and want to buy a good pair of running shoes, go the the portland running company on Grand, and not the one in Beaverton. The people at the downtown store spent a lot of time talking with me and trying a lot of different shoes, and studying my stride. The Beaverton staff just seemed to want to get rid of me. Any way, i am pleased with the new shoes, and I think that they will serve me well.
