Shuffling along

Yesterday another birthday gift from my parents arrived - an iPod shuffle! The only reason it's a late gift is because it took over four weeks for Apple to ship it because of the great demand, but it was worth the wait. I was pretty amazed when I opened the big shipping box to find a little green CD-sized box under a bunch of packing paper! I knew it was supposed to be the size of a pack of gum, but it's even smaller than I imagined. It was really easy to load it up with about 120 songs from my iTunes library, and the sound is really great. Today I went on a short run at lunch and a long mall walk after work to try it out, wearing it around my neck on the lanyard - it's totally weightless, if you ask me! I'm hoping I'll run more often since it's so fun to listen to!

Last night I went to an Ash Wednesday service to kick off Lent, which means I'll be starting my charity giving again. This year I'm going to do a set amount roughly every other day until Easter, which means twenty donations to twenty charities. It was a nice service - I like the Ash Wednesday liturgy, because it makes me see how precious life is and want to live it well.
