It's the last few hours of 2008, very soon to be 2009.
It's also day 6 of my new health regime. I'm walking 1 mile every day and have cut carbonated drinks to one a day. I will admit it's been a bit difficult, especially cutting sodas down to one, but I'm resolute to stick with it.
The BREC park over off of Goodwood is a great place to walk and I can take Emma with me. We both get fresh air and exercise and she seems to enjoy it. Emma is still not very keen on riding in the car but once we get to our destination she perks up quite a bit.
Mom says she sees the walking as a chore and doesn't like to do it but does it anyway because she knows that it's good for her. Dad says he likes walking, especially when we can walk outside. I agree with him. I can walk the inside track at the BREC park on Sherwood, and will when the weather is bad. But given the choice, I'd rather walk outside.
Uncle Phil, Aunt Donna and cousin Leslie drove down from Virginia this week to visit. Yesterday we had a mini reunion with GG, 4 of her 6 kids and their SO's and kids so it ended up having 21 people there total. We were noisy and it was alot of fun.
