Looking for Day one again
Went on a bike ride on Sunday - so frikken nice. What with all the construction around our area I had to get off and walk a few times. I am sure my sweetie was thinking are we on a bike ride or a bike push?? LMAO. Been eating ok - I would say I am about 80% good which is just maintaining eating - I keep hoping that my foot will feel better soon with all the care and attention its getting. I am not sure when I can get back to my classes but I do know when my sweetie changes job at the beginning of August because we are going to have an extra hour a day we are going to be using that hour to go for a walk or play with Wii. This is a vow we have made to each other. Now that we have the PVR no excuse to watch any show at 7 — so the hour between 7 and 8 will be our exercise time. Because we get home so late now we are usually cooking dinner at 7 — so no time to walk or anything after work. I am thrilled that my sweetie is happy to do this with me. As it is he will be walking or riding his bike to work every day. Its about a 10 minute walk and less than 5 minute bike ride - so very very cool. We worked it out yesterday and we will be saving 6000km a year wear and tear on our car - so that is a great thing.
Now if I can only take as good care of myself - lets turn that 80% into 90% and I will be happy happy happy with myself.

You lost two pounds! Yay! Yay Joannie! Yay! Yay! You should be happy with yourself anyway, chickie - but I won’t do any lecturing this time. I haven’t been on my bike yet this summer, and it’s (guess what?) RAINING again today. I feel like a sponge that’s been left sitting in a puddle of water. Boy, do I ever wish I could ride my bike to work! (When it’s not raining, I mean). But by the time I built my stamina up enough to do 45 miles each way, I’d be retiring, anyway, so I guess it’s not something I’m ever going to do. (I’m thinking to retire three years from now, lol!). What heaven that must be - working a 5 minute bike ride from your house, huh?
I’m hoping, hoping, hoping for a little bit of sun this weekend. Keep your fingers crossed for this poor old bedraggled and water-logged New Englander, will you? (Contrary to popular belief, Boston is NOT charming in the rain!)
Hugs,

Sounds like you are planning the work and working the plan. Good for you!
Cheers
