I’ve been gradually adding to my mileage. Now I run 3 miles a day, just about every day. My daily running routine is to make every day a running day, with the knowledge that usually one or two days each week will turn into a skip day. This routine keeps me on track, since an occasional skip day won’t throw me off track, because the next day is always a running day.

Reading has been a little slow, I couldn’t get through “Your Heart Belongs to Me”. I just never could care about the protagonist, and just gave up. I’m going to try another Koontz book, “Velocity” next.

My daughter ran her very first Half Marathon today. See the full story on http://wardwardward.com.

Just finished the audiobook House of Thunder by Dean Koontz.  This was the first fiction audiobook I’ve listened to, and I enjoyed it.  The book was almost about to lose me since it took at least 4 CD’s to get going, but finally got pretty interesting near the end with a plot twist that would have made more sense if I had read the book years ago.

A writing book that I have been reading used Koontz as an example for his excellent plots.  The plot of this book took way too long to capture my interest.

We’ve had a masonite problem with our house for longer than I care to admit, and finally have decided to go with vinyl siding. This project has taken a bit of time, so I’ve been away. I’ll be back soon with some before and after pictures and any interesting stories related to the re-siding project.

I’ve been working on a family member’s laptop that was infested with all sorts of Fake Antivirus malware, and at least one or two viruses. I have managed to get most of the stuff cleaned up, but the cleanup has left the machine unstable and we’re going to end up reformatting the hard drive and reinstalling windows. I can’t say how glad I am to be using a macbook now.
