I know many of you are thinking “what is this picture of”. Did she make a mistake? No, this is the view from my front porch this morning as I comtemplated my walk. It was raining, the wind was blowing, everything was muddy and as you can see, it was foggy. Today was the first test of my determination to walk every day. It would have been so easy to just say YUCK! I’m not going today. I’ll do something else (which I knew I would not). I did finally put on my raincoat, gloves, hiking boots-which of course was another excuse not to go because I do not like to wear all this. I then stepped out in the yuck and began my walk. Guess what? It was exhilarating!!!!!!!! I really did enjoy it. Yes, I did get wet, my pants and my face and that was not too pleasant but it wasn’t too bad either. I really want to walk as long as weather will permit so I know I just have to stick to it. Pray that I will continue to be strong.
Enjoy your day and God bless.
Great job on going for a walk in that weather. It is hard at times to make yourself exercise.
Have a great day.

Wow, I would not have gone. I am really proud of you for everything you are doing for your blood pressure! We sat a table up right in front of the fire place and that’s where we are doing school. It is nice and cozy there. I just finished a cup of candy cane lane tea. I don’t want to turn our heat on. Quentin just put sticky traps in our vents so hopefully we can catch the mouse.

Funny thing, it’s generally when it’s cold and wet out that I have the desire to walk or be out in the weather more. I’m backwards I suppose. smile I don’t have a good walking rought to take with our two little ones, no place to get out of the way of cars speeding by on the country roads. sigh I also don’t have a “drive” to do so. smile I enjoy a good walk now and then, but not on a regular basis for some reason. smile I wish you all the best in these soggy months of walking and the chilly ones that will fallow. smile Enjoy your walks in God’s great creation. smile Sincerely, Mommy of two little blessings & so much more!
