Just another day of running

Last week the weather was beautiful (does anyone else hear Jim Carrey spelling out B-E-A-utiful from Bruce Almighty when typing it out?).  Saturday was the nicest day and of course I spent the entire day shopping.  =/  I was grocery shopping and plant/garden shopping.  For some reason it took forever.  I was really glad that I did my Saturday run in the morning.
This lovely nest of spiders was in my garden, I almost walked under it, but then I saw it.  I tried to find some raid, but the spiders were lucky, no raid.  They lived to scatter all over my yard. 

Sunday was not as nice outside, which I was really annoyed about.  I thought that it was supposed to be sunny, not as as warm, but still nice.  The sun didn't peak through the clouds until about 2pm.  I finally got up and did some gardening because I had some vegetables and needed to get them planted.  We also moved a small planting bed that needed more dirt.  We threw the dirt from that one into the bigger bed.  The plan for the smaller one is to make a herb garden, but that is going to have to wait. 


When moving the smaller bed, we found some gigantic worms.  I have never seen worms this big. 

This week is much cooler outside, which makes me sad.  I like the sun, and strongly dislike the clouds.  I know that the area needs rain, which we aren't getting, but I would rather have it dump rain for a little while and then go back to sun.  Instead we have these high clouds that obscure everything, but very little rain. 

I posted this picture on instagram the other day . . .

and was admiring my butt in it.  ; ) But then I remembered a post I saw the other day about angles, and I looked at other pictures taken seconds before and after this one and found . . .
Zero butt in this picture taken maybe a second before the other. 

Anyway, this Sunday will mark my 200th day running in a row.  A friend of mine keeps pointing this out to me so I feel like maybe it's a big deal?  Maybe I should do something to "celebrate?"  But there's no way I'm going to run 200 miles, 20 miles . .  I suppose I could run 2.00 miles.  =)  But that's not a long run and Sunday is my long run day.  Maybe I'll just try to take a cool picture or something.  It just feels like another day of running to me.  ; )
