Today, just a quick post cuz I need to get my house in order!!!!
Back to the walking ~Last night we made it to Harrison Rd. and back!! WOOOHOOO! That's 2.5 miles!!!

I was bored within the first block!!! Ali even seemed bored.  I was having a tough time motivating myself to take this walk, but at least it was breezy out, not too hot.  I waited until after supper cuz I thought it was kinda warm at 80 degrees, but it wasn't. Just the same maybe I should walk before I eat supper.  We soldiered on, despite the boredom.  And soon enough we were there!  We did it!! I stopped for a quick second to snap a pic on my phone and realized there was a tiny little bit of a rainbow in the sky.  Seriously! {Sure maybe it was lack of oxygen to my brain} Was Mother Nature rewarding me, for the missed sunset, for soldiering on, for completing the 2.5 miles!!! Or was it her reminding me that if you take a second to enjoy being outside in nature, you will always find the beauty!! I'm not sure but I'm calling it both! I tried to take a picture but an iPhone can only do so much!!  I now realize that, I may have made it all the way out but I still had to make it back, then the music in my headphones picked up pace{even Apocalyptica was urging me on!}and we turned around and headed for home. On the way we passed the pickle field again, and the beans, and then the corn and I wanted to yell out ~that's right, we walked right on past you today and the next time you see us we will be walking briskly, bitches!! {as opposed to the current mosey!} I chose not to yell it out, cuz like most things it would've sounded better in my head than out loud!!!
Other life notes:  Ryan and Tallon are riding a Valley tonight.  Having band practice Wednesday. And playing at Open Mic Night at River Rock on Thursday. Big week for them.  I will be tagging along, like I usually do.  I really need to get my own life!!! I will be sweeping up dog hair tumble weeds and doing dishes and sorting pictures!! I have a giant pile of pictures, from January to now that need to be sorted.  I will tackle that this week. I joined a Facebook weight loss group.  Seems fun, and supportive, even though my goal isn't to lose weight~ it's to NOT die during a 5k, if I lose a few pounds along the way, well that will be fine too!!! We all know I need to!! And Maddy is studying all week.  Won't see her again until Saturday. Although I am thinking I would like to surprise her with a healthy study break snack one night this week... anyone have any good ideas???
