I’ve been weight bearing for 2.5 weeks, slowly walking farther each day. Today I annoyed a red-tailed hawk by walking under its acorn-filled telephone pole.

Happy holidays!

Still rehabbing from knee surgery, so I’m not out on the trails. So here’s the view from my kitchen.

At the last race I did, a person giving out pickle juice started talking w/ me about the rattlesnakes we had come across on the trail. I showed him my ring I designed after having a rattlesnake pop up between my feet. He showed me the tattoo he got where the head of the snake is where he got bit.

Living in a rural area means the grocery store and gas station are pretty random. I can buy an air soft gun, fried chicken, and the local church-run newspaper at the gas station. Or I can get popcorn on the cob at the grocery store..

Came across this while I was running along a dry canal. It was one of my last runs before knee surgery, so I was running in pain while despondent about the election. This seemed just dystopian enough for the moment.

I sent an email to admin giving them a heads’ up, and the principal replied

And another student (who would buy an old wired mouse?)

And a teacher who covered for me

Soon, one of the kids replied

I also emailed teachers who had the same kids.

I got my husband to take me to school in my wheelchair to set up sub plans, and I noticed that some of my things had gone missing. So I posted to Google classroom.

Ode to trail #2: wildflowers along the trail

As a trail runner who can’t go on the trails due to knee surgery, I miss them already. First ode to trail post: I always must stop and film tarantulas.

Last long run before surgery. Next long run: maybe in May if all goes perfectly!

Started the day depressed (not in the rage stage yet) with a brutal headache, ended it feeling happy thanks to surgery pain meds. The meds behind me are for our very old dog who is always a good boy, so he and I will be limping around together.

Started this account to get away from the apps of billionaires and to post a bleak image that reflects my brain today
