2 Days? 1 Day? 3 Days?

I don't even know for sure anymore! LOL!  It's Friday night, late, really almost Saturday.  You can figure it out.

Aaaaand our biggest worry at the moment is the weather; it's supposed to be rather nasty.  *sigh*  Torrential rain, flooding, lightning, etc.  Ugh!  Oh well, there is no changing the weather, so we go forward as if everything will happen as planned.  If it changes, then we'll have to live by our praise band's motto--Semper Gumby! 

I can do that. :)  I've walked 13.1 miles already, so I don't feel like I have to prove that to myself.  I know I can do an entire half-marathon (or should I say a full half-marathon? LOL!).  I would really like to finish this one, though, so I'll keep up hope.

This will probably be the last post till after the race.  I'm hoping to get a good night's sleep tonight and to sleep in late tomorrow.  I'll finish up the stuff I need to do to get ready to leave (including cleaning, in case we have a showing), and then we're off!  I don't know what all we'll end up doing in Cincinnati, but I'm sure we'll have fun.

I don't expect much sleep Saturday night, though I'm hoping for as much as possible.  I plan to get up at 4:30am.  UGH!  But it's okay.  I can do it.  I've done it for birds and babies before, so this will not kill me.

(I have to say, though, that walking over a bridge hundreds of feet over the Ohio River might just do me in.  I'm a little freaked about that.)

But I expect that there will be a big party atmosphere, and I'm looking forward to that.  It's really amazing to me how much of this experience is mental.  You'd think the physical part would be the most challenging part, but, truly, it's the mental aspect that is the most challenging.  And it is amazing to me how true the old saying is that it's "mind over matter."  It really is.

Well, with that final thought, I'm off to bed.  Missy is currently digging around on the computer desk in front of me, so I can't see the screen.  I guess she wants her kitty treat and is also looking for something fun to bat around.  (This includes a wad of fuzz from the far recesses of the keyboard drawer.  Ewww.  Oh, and did you know that stuff has an old name?  Slut's wool.  :D  Nice, huh?  A little more interesting than dust bunnies anyway!)
