June 2012: Recap

1.  Take my PCCN.   I did not receive my confirmation to schedule my test until the end of June.  And I was sick throughout the month.  Enough that I had a total of 3 rounds of antibiotics and an ER visit. So that hasn’t happened – yet.

2.  Take my visiting cousin on two day trips.  Check, with my sister’s help.

3.  Run my first 5K. 28:50 and a new favorite t-shirt.

4.  Get rid of my bladder infection.  So far so good.
