I'm a lucky woman who loves her life. I have an amazing husband who makes me laugh and challenges me all at the same time I have two very young, bright, funny, entertaining children and a job I love as a physcial therapist. In my free time, I'm a runner (slow but sure), a hiker, a writer (at least by avocation), and a human jungle gym for my little ones. This is my third 1/2 marathon, along with a couple fulls, but my first foray back into distance running since the two back-to-back little ones. (My running partner's favorite fact about me is that my kids are 363 days apart.) It's also my first attempt at any type of blogging, and I'm basically computer illiterate, so hang in there with me.

my last new york morning

March 9th, 2008 by writeontherun

and sad to leave megan and steve’s, but i did have a terrific trip. ok, truly, i basically ate and drank my way through lower manhattan, talked to good friends and enjoyed the luxury of four days of free time. amazing, that free time. no alarms, no squabbles, no work, no hard and fast committments….but no family either. i loved my trip, but right about the 4th morning i heard a little voice. “i miss my husband. i miss my kids.” maybe because i knew i’d see them that night, or maybe because this 4 days among the longest trips i’ve had away from them.

and city life? loved being car free, able to walk out and jump on the subway. loved the energy and the people and the people watching. missed my mountains. missed my wide open parks. missed my quiet streets in my quiet neighborhood. loved the visit, but couldn’t do it as a life. lucky me, i get to visit often and have the best of both worlds!
