Happy Spring Solstice!

This has been a great day! I started it with a little knitting of a baby blanket that I am making for a co-worker, a half-hour of dancing in my apartment, and then I completed a 3 mile run on the treadmill. I ran faster than I had before. Part of me still doesn't trust that treadmill, as the belt is a little off, so I can't be too sure about the accuracy of the miles per hour measurement. However, it still felt very good and doable.

Then I spent a lot of the gorgeous spring afternoon with a friend I haven't seen in over 7 years. It was great to talk with her. We switched situations - I was in Seattle without family for many years, and now she has moved east without family. We talk about nieces and nephews, and crafts, and it's just good to talk with her, and reminisce about good cookies, and what is important.

Then I went out with my twin, and our best friend since junior high. There is a great chance that when the 3 of us are together, it will be a joyful time, and today was definitely the rule, and not the exception. We ended the day at our friend's house singing Don't Stop Believing at the top of our lungs while my twin's daughter, and our friend's sons walked quickly away. :)

Today is the best friend day of the year so far, and it started with some great running. I think the running has a lot to do with how the tone was set for the rest of the day.
