I am a vet at the animal shelter. I run to relax. I only have one hobby. I am from California. I never grown a fig tree.
I am a teacher.  I teach reading. I like to read a lot of books. I am from Illinois. I went to California last month with my family. I have a fig tree I'm trying to grow.
Guess what? I signed up for the marathon I was talking about! I am so excited.  That's great, when is it?  The marathon is in a week! I've been training hard for it. Do you like to run? Wow, that is soon! I love to run but had to take the last few months off due to an ankle injury. Aw, I hope that it gets better. But I bet you can find some cool books to read in the meantime! Yes, I just got a new Kindle and have it loaded up already! Will you take any time off from the shelter in order to prepare for the marathon? So cool! I am planning to, although I will miss the animals. I am excited to get some time to myself, though. Is the marathon a rain or shine event? Yep. I am a little bit nervous, even though I love to run. You've trained for this so all you have to do is go out there and do your best. You find running relaxing so just get into that mindset. You're right, thanks! I can do this as long as I put my mind to it. By the way, how is that fig tree doing? It's getting there, no figs yet but it is early still.  Thanks for asking.
