Robin had her first cooking class today, making fresh stuffed pastas from scratch. I’m currently watching her cook and hoping she’s having fun. And also that I get to eat what she made, because I’m hungry.

I’ve been trying to get past my frustrations with my lack of progress in running, and I started a new training plan. Turns out the new app isn’t compatible with my current watch (which I purchased more than six years ago). That has thrown the whole plan off from day one. Even though my watch does work well otherwise, I decided to splurge and get myself a new one. I’m excited to get it tomorrow and have full use of the app. I’m also excited about running again. The parts of the plan I’ve been able to do have really lifted my spirits. Totally worth it.

Robin and I had a great afternoon shopping at Sweet Pete’s while Christina was there for a birthday party. We went for a walk around downtown, which frankly was a little sad. It is so desolate. On a beautiful Saturday afternoon, the downtown area of a city like Jacksonville should be bustling with people. We didn’t even see traffic on the roads. I have heard people talk about how sad it is, but now I know.

Robin and her team kicked butt at their competition. They looked absolutely amazing. For some reason they didn’t place as high as we expected – they got 6th out of 8. But they came out smiling and should be proud. The competition was really tough and they held their own. The afternoon was hectic, though, since awards were at 3 and tire shops closed at 5. First place I tried didn’t have any staff availability, second place didn’t have the size I needed. We just made it to the third place before they closed and luckily they were able to do it. I was really worried we’d have to stay another night. Then Olive Garden for dinner to celebrate and home by 8. Crazy weekend all around, but definitely could have been a lot worse, and the kids were amazing through it all.

I feel like I am always buying the kids shoes. How do they go through them so quickly? Why are they so expensive? Damn it, shoes!
