A New Toy!

So, while I would prefer to go running alone... I've had to get real and realize that if I'm going to train for a 10 miler, I'm going to need to be able to run a lot more often then I'm currently able to with my husband's schedule.
The best time for me to go running is between 12-2 while my boys are in school.... but I still have little Sis.
So I decided to search craigslist for a jogging stroller.  I have had and sold a jogging stroller in the past.  I hated it because the front wheel was fixed and I had to push down on the handle bars to lift the front wheel and turn it, while running.... a pain in the butt, or shoulders more specifically!
So the first thing I was looking for in my search was a front wheel that swivels!
The second thing I was looking for was price!  I really didn't want to drop a lot of money on yet another stroller... for my 3rd child.  I think I have been through a total of 6 strollers?!   I don't plan on having more children so this would only need to get me through for the next year or so.
I just happened to find one I liked for only $50... added bonus, it has a built in speaker system for your Ipod/MP3 player... so I don't have to run with earphones in and not hear my daughter if she needs something.  She gets to listen to the music too!  Or, play her own on the toy and steering wheel attached to the tray!  Another bonus in case she gets bored!  The stroller is by Jeep.  It's a nice smooth ride and I am absolutely thrilled!
I felt for Janet, the woman I bought it from... as she loaded it into the back of my mini van I could just see the heart ache in her eyes.  Years of memories.... it is so hard!  I relate and empathize as I too have had trouble parting with some of the more prized items I've had for my kids!  I hope she is at peace with it knowing how much I appreciate it and will continue to love and use it ... adding on to those wonderful memories she's already built in!
I love Craigslist... said it before but I say it again!  You can find some of the coolest things, for the best prices and meet nice people along the way!  Here's a shot (sorry it's dark) of the new ride and sissy enjoying it in a short video....
