Good Morning my FS Homies!

Coffee, Coffee, Coffee...LOL Today we got the good stuff at work! Yeppie! :D I am feeling so "Super Fly..." LOL

Last night I walk/ran and it was wonderful. I would run for 30 counts and walk for 30 counts. During, my run walk I really focused on my breathing as some of you may know that I am preparing for a marathon. There is one coming up in May 2010 in San Fran. So, now I have to concentrate on my breathing and on gaining the well needed endurance. The Marathon is a 5K; however, I am not able at this time to run a full lap around the track without stopping. Let's just say that I have my work cut out for me. Nonetheless, it is mind over matter, God, and my determination that will see me through!

Yesterday, I decided to go for a walk in my neighborhood as oppose to the track. I am glad that I did this as my neighborhood is very shaded with beautiful tall trees. Now we all know that lots of things can hide in trees right? Well, as I was running and singing with total mental clarity out jumped a fox! Now, I live in the city not the country; however, where I live looks like the forest (literally)! As I was bobbing along in such serenity I stopped and paused at the sight of what from a distance appeared to be a strange breed of a cat. I squinted my eyes to try and focus on what stood in the middle of the road. I looked at him and he looked at me for what seemed like an eternity. My heart started pounding when it dawned on me that that was NO cat but a damn fox. I started to back away slowly. Let me just say I grew up in the city not the country and although I consider myself a tough woman, I am not familiar with the wild kingdom and I am not about to start interacting with them now; if you get my drift. LOL What if he had rabies and decided to take a bite out me. Don't know if he would have but I was not about to find out. LOL I decided to wait until he ran out of site. Once the fox departed I bolted down the road as fast as I could. LOL What a site! :D

Again I can not wait to run/walk tonight. I will let you all know if I run into some wild animal such as a lion or a tiger. You just never know... LOL

Have a great almost Friday!

Warm Regards,

The Butterfly~

LOL love your fox story Butterfly! A fox is one of the most beautiful animals I have ever seen in person, and there really aren't many of them around, at least not in the burbs of Pittsburgh where I grew up and definatley not in Dallas! It's so good to hear that you are knocking out exercise. Keep at it girl you are doing great! Have you ever seen The Fox and the Hound? It's an older antimated movie about a fox (named copper) and a hound dog (named Todd) who are best friends. Sooo cute! Your story reminded me of that movie.

08 I was so scared! LOL I did not want to get into an altercation with a Fox. It would not be a pretty sight. Sure I am bigger but I am sure that his teeth are a lot sharper than mine. :D So I don't think biting him back would be a way to conflict resolute, although I have been known to do such wild and crazy things. I would probably try and bite him back...Just saying...Don't mess with The Butterfly! LOL As far as running is concerned; one day at a time and I am doing fine! :D Have a fabulous weekend dear!
