If not NOW...WHEN?

Ok so here is the question of the day. What is it that you want to do and keep thinking I should do this... And what are you waiting for? I guess I am really trying to get out of the whole I will do it later mentality. Maybe this is midlife crisis. Do you have those at 30 something:) Maybe it is because I swear to you it seems like yesterday I was in college and its been 13 years since I was there. (So Karla that means we have been friends for 16 years :)) Maybe its becuase I had a wake up call earlier this year.
Whatever. What is it that you have always wanted to do but havent and why not or better yet when will you? I have been thinking about this A lot lately. I know what mine is .. I think.

An unlikely workout partner

I like to walk. It is free, it clears your head you can do it anywhere. I have always wanted a workout partner. You know someone to hold you accountable...make you go when you feel like taking a nap. I often walk with my girl friends. But I would of never thought I would find a workout buddy in Rob. He wanted to walk with me. I tried to think up every excuse no its too far. Just stay with dad and Logan but he was persistent " I can do it Mom" so we walk and walk and walk. Now we walk anywhere from 2.5 to 3 miles a day. We run into people who say I saw you guys walking you walk really far... anyway. He is the best workout partner I ever had. When I get home from work there he is...Get your shoes on Mom lets go walk.. Ok, And while we walk we talk and sometimes the conversation is quite well enlightening. " Mom, I think you should know I have a girlfriend now." Me oh ok. Well tell me about her. What would you say he is 6. She is in my class and she is so beautiful. Other times it is well touching. " Is this called quality time Mom, is that what adults say...quality time" It is so great. And dont think we walk slow, No this workout buddy pushes me "come on Mom speed up why dont we just run up this hill to knock it out." The other day Phil saw us walking and said he kicks your butt huh? But yesterday when we were walking he said I love when it is just me and you Mom walking.. and said I am going to say a prayer thanking God right now. And he did while he was walking. And I knew he was the BEST workout buddy I ever had.

Ask and you shall receive SPRING AT LAST!




Two things I have passed down to the boys my love of nice weather and being outside. It has rained here so much it was so nice outside 65 and SUNNY... the second thing is when we have a good day we say "It sure was a nice day today" we say it almost every day really but today as I was helping Rob after his bath he said " It sure was a good day today I will remember it for a long time just me,you, Logan and Dad hanging out. And it was such a nice day outside:) It was a really good day. What more can I say?
