I had a nice chatty report written up.  I was just about to proof it and post it when LJ hiccuped and ate it.  And now LJ won't give it back.  There is no way I can recreate it, so here are the highlights:  We did the .73 mile walk.  The only animals visible were the geese at the pond.  We had a bit of reluctant (on Manny's part) socialization with ( Read more... )

Up until about an hour ago, I was in a good mood.  Then I got a message from my brother.  When I first told my family about the wedding, this brother told me that he, his wife, and at least one of his daughters would be there.  Seems that isn't going to happen.

His oldest daughter is a senior in high school.  She's been on the volleyball team since ( Read more... )

Yep, we did the .73 miles route today. And it felt good ( Read more... )

In case you couldn't tell by the title, we went to the fair today.  I tried to map our walk, but it was a little tricky with all the buildings we went in and out of.  It was somewhere in the neighborhood of 1.13 miles.

The first place we stopped was the building where my entries are.  We checked out the knitting first, and there was a moment of ( Read more... )

First of all, day 16 was Thursday.  I had a bad bout with insomnia on Wednesday night, and last night I caved really early (for me), so I didn't get this posted.

Second, Manny wasn't with me.  This was because I wasn't walking near home - my walk was at the county fairground.  Why, you ask?  Because this year, for the first time since I was a ( Read more... )

Weird as it seems, I'm 1/4 of the way to my goal!

Today, I did the .44 mile route - building back up to the .73 mile route.

It was definitely getting to be dusk when we left - one thing that walking every evening is showing me is how quickly the days are getting shorter.  It could be spring or fall all year round as far as I'm concerned - I am so ( Read more... )

I did not walk yesterday, due a combination of bad weather and not wanting to risk setting the flare off again.  Today, I was a little shaky because I had cleaned the oven and the stooping and reaching had worn me out, so I did the .33 mile walk again.  I'm really looking forward to getting back to the .73 mile walk ( Read more... )

Sorry, but this is going to be short.  We have storms moving in and I've been achy all day.  Partly that's because I forgot to take my meds this morning - our 14 year old cat was failing, and we had to help her cross the bridge, which made the morning routine all wonky ( Read more... )

Manny and I left at what is becoming our usual time.  The sun was setting, and everything was quiet.  I saw a rabbit behind a house a little ways down the road, and another in the yard across from the house with the pine trees.  And as I walked, I noticed something.  Almost every yard I passed had been mowed in the past 24 hours.  Which leads me to ( Read more... )

Sorry I didn't get anything posted last night - by the time I was done with everything else, it was late and I didn't want to bother.  Yesterday, I did the .73 miles under a pale blue and gold sky as the sun set.  No animals, not much of anything.  Pretty run of the mill ( Read more... )
