so I have continued my nightly mile walk since Sunday! I feel great ~ it is a little boring circling the trail 4 times to get a mile, but it is a start. :) I even have visions of running it some day - we'll see about that though. Not sure my 42 year old knees can take running!
I am getting ready to go out of town this weekend. We are having a family reunion in Austin. It will be great seeing all the family that I haven't seen in a while. My favorite cousin Milly that I spent my summers with ~ we would spend ALL day in bed reading our books, only getting up to eat. My cousin Monica who has 4 kids now. A cousin Lisa that I have not seen since we were about 12 or 13. My girls are excited to see their cousins too, the next generation :)
The girls and I will stay in Austin on our own for an extra day. I have a few things planned for us and am going to enjoy the time! Next week is both birthdays ~ Ava will be 5 and Zoe will be 3!! I am planning some fun activities all week for us. Not sure when we will have an official birthday party - need to check schedules, but it will be soon.
I finally got a digital camera so I will be posting more pictures soon ~ of my girls, of all the house projects I have planned, maybe even of cooking! I am feeling inspired :)
Congrats on your continued walking journey! Keep it up, Girlie! Maybe we can join you one day or you can come over and walk the canal with me.
ReplyDeleteWe hope you girls have a great weekend! It sounds fabulous! Take lots of pictures with that new camera!!!
Good for you. Keep up the walking. My 43-year old knees need to be walking. I've been running a couple times a week to try to incinerate some calories, but it is killing my knees. I think I'm going to have to stop and start walking instead.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you're enjoying your walks - it's a great way to get some quiet thinking time! Enjoy your trip! I agree -take lots of pics! Can't wait to see them!
ReplyDeleteHave fun! I can't wait to see some pics now!
ReplyDeleteYeah!!! pics coming soon!
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to see some more pictures of your family and stuff. :)
ReplyDeleteYour walk sounds like a good start to running. Don't let youself get talked into the trap of "too old to run"... you have a good nother 50 years left... if you are too old now... ;) I plan on still hucking boxes of veggies around and building shelves when I am in my 60's.
Walking... I still have to find a circle for us around here. We are in true suberbia... all culdesacs. Once I find a trail though, we are going to start biking! Breaking out the big guns huh? lol!

Ok, pantry shelves... wow. I have a lot of food on there. How about I send you to a link with all my notes for what I have in the jars?
