Walkin', Yes indeed I'm Talkin'

I spent the afternoon walking...all afternoon and talking too! First I called around for a walking buddy. Kathi wanted to go later, Karen is ready to go, then before I leave Jodi calls and wants to go later. Fine, I can do both, combine the sisters' walk later and go with Karen first. We took a long walk because we are highly motivated. Maybe motivated is a strong word, but we are pressured. Hawaii+swimsuit = 30 days. So, Karen and I take off and walk really quite far. We are on the homeward stretch when my sis Kathi gets dropped off at the curb by her husband, Jeff. So, we take the long way home so she can get her walk time in too. We get to my house, Karen goes home, Kathi and I have some water, pick out identical things in the eddie bauer catalog because we're sisters and that is what we do. Then we realize we haven't walked with Jodi and she maybe thinks we're coming. So, we walk to Jodi's house, leash up Eddie and walk. Jodi hasn't really walked so we walk with her, by this time we are at Karen's sister, Colleen. Jeff drives up and Kathi heads for home. The dogs visit, we meet Colleen's birds and head out again. We get back to Jodi's and I have a water break, visit with neice Hana and then, yes, you guessed it, I walk home. By now I have been gone for three hours. Next stop, the hot tub! If anyone didn't get their walk in today-DON"T call me.

I got to my parent's today to have my Dad ask me if I want to go running. First I laughed (hysterically) then was curious about when/why my dad started running. Things are weird.

Less than 30 days...Hawaii will be here before you know it! Don't worry about the suit - anything goes on the beach over there. Is Fred packing his Speedo?!? :)
