Sounds like a tough beginning of the week for a lot of us!

Crankin' glad to hear the knee is feeling better - take care of it!

emily - that doesn't sound like you but it sounds like you are still doing a lot of variety

Yellow - thanks for the positive energy! I will take it

Urlea - sand bag filling is a LOT of work! (actually I have never done it but I have hauled and emptied full wet ones and THAT is a lot of work)

Glad to hear that you should stay high and dry, if it floods there isn't much to stop it in that country. There is tons of flooding in this part of the state but so far where I am it is dry (and I live 1/2 block from the river) we have good ***** built up and dams upstream so hopefully I will be good to go.

Apparently HWY 83 between here and Bismarck has water on it (now w/ snow over the top) Not pretty. We aren't used to this in this part of the state
Hope you can find some clear land to run on!

Roadie_gal - It is somewhat comforting to know we aren't the only ones getting snow.

Well so much for my transitioning to outside We are in the midst of another blizzard. So far we only have about 8 inches of snow but any hope of clear walks, streets and trails is long gone for awhile.

I was scheduled to do my long run today and the Y is closed. School was dismissed at 11 am as per request of the police department. So hopefully I will be able to do it tomorrow.

I have an older treadmill here at home but it is so NOT going to happen! I left all my shoes etc at school anyway as I was planning on going after work.

I suuuppose I could get on the bike and trainer and it wouldn't kill me. We'll see

Oh Yeah! I have some of Yellow's positive energy! THANKS yellow
