Lots and Lots of Walking...and Other Projects

Well then, I’m quite behind in my walk reporting... February was quite the snowy month. In fact, I was able to walk more in January. February breakdown: 02/01-02/05: 1.5 miles 02/06-02/12: 3 miles 02/13-02/19: 15.1 miles 02/20-02-26: 12 miles Total: 31.6 miles Actually, if it wasn’t for the fact that I was checking in on my friends’ cats, I might not have even walked that much! So much snow... (not that I’m complaining about snow in February. LOL) The 25th was an interesting day-I was watching the school closings to see if the Cleveland Hts/University Hts school district would be closed (the bus tends to be early when there are no kids), and I never saw Case in the listings. While on the bus, I decided to check Facebook, just for kicks-when I found out that the University had closed!!! Got into the library, turned right around and went home (special thanks to Robin-she gave me a lift so I wouldn’t have to wait for a bus. She is an excellent snow driver!) Snow days are much more e...

Walking update

Well, looks like I was a little off with my mileage guesses. ;) Here's the new totals for January: Week of January 2nd: 12 miles Week of January 9th: 15 miles Week of January 16th: 3 miles Week of January 23rd: 8 miles January 31st: 1 mile Total miles for January 2011: 38 (not bad for a winter month!)

Walking into February

It's the last day of January! First, I'd like to say, "GO, PACK, GO!!!" The Packers are going to the SUPERBOWL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yay!!!! They are playing the Pittsburgh Steelers! Arthur and I are gonna get our co-hosted Superbowl party!!! But more on that later this week. ;) One of the New Years resolutions I forgot to mention was I'd like to keep track of how many miles I walk each week. Here's the count so far (I think): Week of January 2nd: not sure, but I think it's 0 (need to check bus pass) Week of January 9th: 12 miles Week of January 16th: 3 miles Week of January 24th: 7 miles (you get the general idea) The first two weeks of January I'm not sure of at this point-I need to find the bus pass I had at the beginning of the year (if I still have it-I use 5 rides so each of my rides will be marked) and I need to check the weather-we had a bit of a melt down, so the sidewalks were clear for a brief time (biggest problem with walking in winter: wa...

A list...

...of things I need to do: 1. Write here more. 2. Write here more. 3. Write here more. 4. Write here more. 5. WRITE HERE MORE!! (ha!) Seriously, I was hoping I would get back on track with the new year. That hasn't happened yet. Lent starts next week-maybe I'll get my act together by then. ;) I'll write a list. I'm very good at writing lists...just not so hot at keeping up with them. ;) List of projects: 1. Finish Bella's baby blanket 2. Start my SJ costume for Marcon 3. Scrapbook for Chicago Tardis 4. Put Tardis consol together (no, Dave, I haven't forgotten!!) ;) 5. Get back on the healthy track 6. Coca Cola reward points (more on that later...) 7. Develop film (more on that later) Ah, well-it's back to work for me!

LAFF it up! ;)

D.W.Q.M.: "Carrot juice, carrot juice, carrot juice..." -the Sixth Doctor Okay, been slacking with the LAFF plan updates-that's for sure! I really need to start focusing again-I feel I've gotten off track-at least with the exercising part. The weather hasn't been all that great for walking-but I've completely stopped working out at home. I really need to do that again. Since I haven't used my weights in such a long time, I'm going to have to be careful and ease back into it. It's no fun walking around with sore arms! I'm hoping the weather will start to get nice again-since walking is my favorite form of exercise. :) Also, with the warming weather (hopefully it'll stay that way for awhile), means more disc golf! I don't know how I've managed it, but I've actually still been loosing weight-not a whole lot, but I was down 2 pounds from last week! So I've either A-successfully changed my diet, B-been really lucky, or C-a litt...

Ro and Shar's LAFF update #2

D.W.Q.M.: Mel: "His favorite drink is carrot juice." the Seventh Doctor: "I hate carrot juice!" Mel: "Oh." Oops, I've been a little lazy about LAFF updates. So far it's been going okay since the beginning of the year. I haven't been loosing much weight, but then again, I haven't been gaining much either. ;) I've lost about 5 pounds since the beginning of the year-not bad, but not great-I know I can do better. I've been kind of lazy in regards to exercising in the past week-I didn't do much at all. I thought I was coming down with a cold last week-I was feeling very tired and a little achy. Actually, it probably would have been a lot worse-but since starting this with Shar, I've changed my diet to include more fruits and vegetables-and other healthy choices-I'm sure my immune system appreciates that. ;) I haven't been walking much, either-at least not for 30 minutes. I do enjoy walking in the cold-however-it's b...
