Today Is A New Day

I just wanted to say I'm not quite out of my funk, but I'm getting there! Perhaps a week off of school will help--which is what I get next week for Thanksgiving.

My family has rented some cabins in Oklahoma for Thanksgiving. It should be fun and definitely very different from previous years! I'm most excited about our family turkey trot! We are having a family 5k run, complete with T-shirts and everything! I've been training! I have this desire to win so bad! I've been sizing up my competition. The way I see it, my sister-in-law's brother Kelly is my only competition--and maybe my dad, too! But, fortunately for me, they are both nursing injuries! Yesterday I ran a 5k (3.1 mi.) in 26:15. I was quite proud of myself, but pushed myself so hard, that I'm unsure I can do it again!

Why am I so competitive? My friend Mike told me last night that he thought I was going to flip the chess board after losing. I assured him, I might be a bad loser, but I'm not going to break things. Although, that might not be true since I threw my tennis racket tonight after a bad hit. Hmmm.... What is wrong with me? I seriously need help!
