? - denotes that I ran but failed to record the time. In this case, it was a little over half an hour, maybe 40 minutes.

Good for you! I appreciate your honesty. Good luck in your continued efforts.

Keep up the good work!

I'm sure Daddy is giving you all sorts of good long distance running tips :-)

Actually, they came from me. I took a class in preparing for a marathon before doing the Johnnycake Jog last year, and I gave Mensch the book. Weeeeell, Daddy may have given him some tips, too.

Actually, Daddy gave me all sorts of good running tips when I started running. But he's really a long distance sprinter not a long distance runner. Maman's book, plus the weight lifting class, plus the positive psych class all contributed greatly.

Hey, Rae, is there something about which I should not be honest? Oh, and, it's good to hear that you're house hasn't been washed away (why would it have been, anyway?).

We've had constant heavy rains for four days and the end is finally in view tomorrow. I've been lucky in terms of commuting and flooding. Many people's basements/ rooves have flooded/leaked. I'm glad we got a new roof last year! The rivers and creeks in the area are flooded and three major buildings in downtown DC have been closed due to flooding. A big old tree fell over at the White House- presumably because the ground was so mushy. Mudslides blocked areas of 95/495- can you imagine the traffic nightmares? Eric and I are lucky in our commute- but even bits of route one were flooded.
