Hey, two in one month

That's a record, for the recent past.

Fundraising is looking like a problem this year. I am seriously wondering if I'm going to be able to walk. I'm not going to be able to contribute almost $300 like I did last year. Not again. So, we'll see. I've got a couple of ideas but I have to implement them quickly. The walk is six weeks earlier this year than it was last year.

Didn't walk today, but I've been doing some heavy housework. Lots of lifting and bending and up and down the stairs. Going to hope it dries out later so I can mow the lawn. The city doesn't like it when it gets this long but I swear this stuff grows so fast I can *see* it. It's annoying. But, I know, it was part of what I took on when I bought the house. And it's another form of exercise, so it's all good.

Dusting things off....

Ok, so I'm not the world's most prolific blogger. Actually, I think that might be the understatement of the year so far. But, here I am.

Been walking. A lot. It feels good, and when I don't give in to the early-morning lazies, that feels good too. There are times when I drag myself out of bed in the morning and just think, oh, geez, I so do NOT want to walk today. But...I go. And it feels good.

Had a milestone today. I passed more people than I was passed by. That was kind of nifty. I realize it's not a race, honest I do, but when I get passed by a ninety-year-old woman who's carrying an oxygen tank, that's demoralizing. Ok, that only happened once, but you get the point.

Also joined Weight Watchers since the last time I posted. Lost six pounds the first week. Talk about feeling good. Now I have to get over the "I want to lose it all NOW" mentality. I didn't get this size overnight and I'm not going to lose it all overnight either. Slow and steady, right? Right.

I'll be back soon, I promise.

Back at it

Went two circuits of the mall today. I can tell I've lost some conditioning; it wasn't nearly as easy to do two miles as it was to do six or seven, not so very long ago. Ah well...it'll come back. As long as I work on it. Trying to get back into better eating habits too...but veggie omelets get old, yanno? Have to figure out something else I can have for breakfast. Ideas from my vast legions of faithful readers would be received with much gratitude ;)
