Treadmill Tuesday, Turkey Tuesday

I know I was not supposed to run for a week.  I made it five days lol. Got on the treadmill legs felt great knocked out 8 miles no pain.  Getting ready for the turkey trot next week.  Having a strong core is a must when running.  I could feel the difference when I wasn't doing abs, because of my broken tailbone. Finally been able to work on the abs and it makes a huge difference when I run.  

Prissy had a rough day. Isn't she so effing adorable. I love her.  Over the weekend, she had a nosebleed.  It scared me to death. I tried to apply pressure, however her face is flat so she couldn't breathe, it was a mess.  Finally got it to stop now every time she sneezes I panic. 

Anybody else pick up their turkey yet? I found one I liked today, 21 lbs.  I decided that since Thanksgiving is a major holiday, I would cheat on my "no meat" diet.  My son wants me to eat turkey with him so I caved.  He could probably ask me to do anything and I would.  He is so cute that I have taken apart plumbing in two sinks to get a tiny Lego out.  There is nothing that I wouldn't do for any of my children....

Tomorrow is my speed training day, probably on the treadmill, yuck.  Lobster ravioli for dinner.

How big is your turkey?  

What is the craziest thing you have done to keep your child/significant other happy? 

Do you have a pet that just flops over the furniture?

New bird sighting, rainy Wednesday

Yesterday while watching the birds, I noticed a large dove.  This was not the usual mourning dove it was much larger so I googled "dove with black mark on neck."

This is a Eurasian collared dove. This species was introduced to the Bahamas in the 1970's, then migrated to Florida in the 1980's. The description said "the mourning dove's chunky relative."  They were huge. So I really enjoyed watching them!!!  They have not been seen north of North Carolina. 

Ugh, rain and cold. Not running today, working abs and arms.  Then going to start working on a new puzzle.  Ironically this puzzle reminds me of Cumberland Plateau.  Which wasn't relaxing, however puzzles are relaxing to me.  

I made homemade eggplant Parmesan last night, and it was the best I ever had!!!!  I love to cook, which leads to eating a lot, which leads to having to work out a lot. It's a vicious cycle but someone's got to do it. Recipe tomorrow.

Do you find puzzles relaxing?

Do you run in the rain and why?

What are some of the most amazing things you have seen?
