I had another short night last night, so after the 8:00 I’ll hope to take a supplementary nap. I’d been awake a good while before running time this morning; the weather report solemnly assured me that some precipitation would be falling, but I saw only an isolated snowflake or two. The 2° temperature accompanied by a gusty breeze chilled me, but not as harshly as I initially feared. My pace didn’t equal yesterday’s, but that still came in more than a minute faster than last Sunday.
Run, coffee and fruit, Morning Prayer, shower, early Mass, then home to rest — to sleep, perchance to dream. I’d benefit from a recharge.
[Early Mass went fine. Homily below. I’ve gotten an hour of nap already, and am aiming for more this afternoon.]
