After tearing my house apart and creating a huge disaster, I drove up to my parent's house. My mom and I went to Seal Bay nature park for a walk/run. I haven't gone for a run for a long time, so we walked 4 minutes and ran 1 for 35 minutes. Tomorrow I'm going to try to run longer.
I felt pretty weak, but when I remember to when I started running 2.5 years ago, I could barely run 30 seconds at a time. I don't think it'll be long before I'm running 5km like I was. My mom is interested in running with me, which is nice. She's actually in better shape than me, her and my dad go for bike rides every day and walks every night, and she just goes all the time, but she is happy to run and walk at my pace, which helps with my bit of anxiety around running. I know it's such a good workout though, and I felt so good when I was running 20 - 25 km a week.

Construction has started on my sister's house! My dad built the foundation, today, for the new part of the house that is actually going to double the size of their house.

I have been eating English peas out of their pods all afternoon.... and evening

My neighbour's boyfriend parked in my parking spot, and he parked so badly (or his truck rolled backwards) that he has actually blocked in someone else's car too. I taped a note to his window that said "Please do not park in my parking spot, please park in the visitor parking spots by the road". It wasn't grumpy, it was just to the point. I hate coming home and not having a parking spot. (edit: Just ran into her outside and she forgot to tell her boyfriend not to park in my spot, she apologized, which was nice.. although he hasn't moved his truck. :P)
(I'm so excited I actually got out for a run, even though I am starting from the beginning again!)
