The very least you can do in your life is to figure out what you hope for. And the most you can do is live inside that hope. Not admire it from a distance but live right in it, under its roof.

I am now in week three of my running routine. I have not had cramps yet, but my shins have been hurting. I did some research, and I think it is due to my running posture, I am landing too often on my toes. I’ll try to fix that, and my goal is still on trying to get proper running shoes. I do yoga before which is my stetching, and then I stretch after. Today, I really noticed the runner’s high. I’m glad it is starting to kick in more. My immune system has been compromised these days, and I partly blame the running. I also blame the heat, but mostly the running. It is also the reason why I probably gained weight rather than lost it. I think I plateaued so hopefully I’ll be losing weight in the future weeks. As for my immune system, exercise is suppose to build it, after my current initial difficulty with it (another outbreak today), that will stop. At least I don’t have a cold.
I’m browsing some knitting patterns for sweaters, cardigans, and vests. I am not a vest person. Before I started knitting, I was not interested in scarves, mittens, fingerless gloves or vests as wardrobe items, but now I am since I want to make all of these items. I am not sure if this is a good or a bad thing. I don’t even know when I will wear a vest.
Leah and I nice time together watching the new P&P movie and the old miniseries. Essentially, we did what I did two weeks ago. We had no time for the BlackAdder though.
I feel rather empty without an ongoing knitting project these days.
