12 of 12

So I'm doing my 178th 12 of 12.

Normally it is 12 pictures taken on the 12th of the month. Since I only post once per day, you get my images the following day. All pictures taken with my iPhone. Click images to enlarge, if you choose.

Created by Chad Darnell and picked up from, what I can tell, any number of random bloggers who then link back to him and vice versa. Chad is no longer doing this, nor is successor coordinating the linking of other 12 of 12'ers anymore.

04:52. Prophylactic measures. About to head to the gym where I know I'll incur soreness. 

05:15. 3.12 to be run. My second run in 11 hours. Then on to weights and core work. 

06:36. A quick shvitz before the shower. 

Until I looked at the picture I didn't realize anyone wrote "Seek Jesus" on the inside of the door. 

07:12. Took out the trash. 

07:26. Gruel. Colorful gruel, but gruel nonetheless. 

08:28. Vet visit. Waiting for someone to get his staples out and cone off. 

09:15. .....and then Blobby panicked when on a walk 4 minutes later and took him back. 

He's fine. It will have to air dry and scab. And he's not supposed to lick it, so probably a soft cone at night. 

10:09.  Taking 710's car through the car wash. 

I had his car because Shep can't get into mine with his cone. 

10:28. ....and then he got a pup cup because he was a brave little man. He was so excited. 

12:57. Successfully registered for the 2025 New York Marathon lottery.

I'll find out in three weeks if I have been selected. 

14:28. My certain driveway death. And it will be due to the need of throwing away dog poop. 

We have had multiple ice storms in the last few weeks. We just can't get rid of the prior slick stuff and then another batch coats the ground.  My YakTracks are getting a workout. 

18:43. Beer. 

My second one of 2025. Both 710 and I were a little stressed, so, you know....alcohol. 

There you go. All done.
