Rhondalou and Edie's Big Virtual Adventure 11/21/08

RhondaLou and I are going to virtually meet somewhere between the 1120 miles that separate us.

How long will it take us?

It is not a race, we will both be WINNERS.

I am hoping this will be fun for us.

I hope we inspire online friends to come up with some ideas like this and be sure to share them with us on this thread.

I walked 3 more miles today in cold weather. I have missed my daily walks. I used every excuse. Not enough time or I exercise at work. I mostly missed the me time.

My first goal is to get to the TN line.

YES YES YES

I went to the mall and went 3 miles.

My hubby says "great,that was another hour you were away from home".

I have explained to him that exercise is like medicine for my mind.

I AM juggling TOO MUCH right now.

Full time job , to be 48 hours for next two weeks.

Part time job 10 - 15 hours a week.

Church .

I didnt plan to be working full time but it fell into my lap , so I took it.

I CANNOT give up my part-time job . I love it . It really would be like a death to me. I groom 25 dogs and I love each and everyone of them. They are my little four legged friends.

I need to be in God's house. I do pray , I do listen to Him. He tells me he wants me IN His house too.

I want/need exercise for my mind.

My fulltime job is walking all night but it is different , I cannot think about anything else but my work tasks .

My part time job will eventually go to doggy heaven.Wahhhh and Boo Hoo. It breaks my heart.

Should I even mention household business (I do it ALL ),housework (90%) and friends time? Nah.

Thank anyone who has read my SAD SAD story. LOL

At least I am at a healthy weight doing this, almost doing it and just doing enough not to be living in a dirty house.

Now on my list of things to do I need to check how many miles it is from Owensboro KY to Tenn line on my way walking to TX.

running total 10 + 3 = 13

I was able to walk 4 miles at the mall on Dec 12 2008.

It felt so good.

I was going to walk my pet today 3 miles but it is raining.

I had promised Hubby I would come home after work on his day off.
