Day 89. March 30: Fast

The runners up front
at the Piece of Cake 10k are really very fast.
Then there's me - fast is not part of my make-up.
 Then again, 'fast' is a relative term. 

Too bad it's no relative of mine.

Day 86. March 27: Something I made

I made this little rag doll for myself when I was VERY young.
And this little memo book I made for my Mom, for her birthday.
Inside it says,
"Happy
       Birth
            day!!!
Mom
      m
       y
 you are nice

Love, Jeannie",

then it has pages labeled for the days of the week: Mon., Sun., Wed., Sat., Thur., Fri., Tues.

Day 84. March 25: One of a kind

ZuZu is one of a kind. The vet told me even if a calico cat is CLONED, the clone will show different markings than the original cat...but if the clone DID have the same markings, to a hair, it would NOT be ZuZu. My ZuZu is totally unique.

Hmmm... Five years ago was 2009. In 2009, among other things,
I ran a stupid little 10-miler
