Our road has now been scraped by the D. O. T. at least three times - once late yesterday afternoon, and twice this morning. The sun is shining and the snow is diminishing. Is it possible that I will actually be able to get out and go running this afternoon? I have not run since Tuesday, and if necessary I am willing to simply run up and down our driveway, or any other dry stretch of pavement, for as many times as it takes to get some distance covered and to dispel this dark lethargy that overcomes me when I cannot run.
But the sun is shining today and I am a happy man. Not just because I will be able to go outdoors and run, but because it is February 14, Valentine's Day. And the 37th Valentine's Day that I will be spending with my loving wife Martha! It does not seem that long! But at the same time, it seems like forever that I have held her in my arms and in my heart, my true love. And it is another snowy February, just like those good old days on Arrowood Road, isn't it?
I love you, Martha!
Happy Valentines Day!
