Day 136....eye opener.

Yesterday was a very productive day for me. I used the elliptical in the morning, then got a bunch of stuff organized around the house. I have so much organizing that needs to be done and just not enough energy to get it all done. So, I was so happy to get things done yesterday!

The kids have been asking me to pick them up and take them to lunch. Since there are only a few days left of school, I decided to pick them up today. I picked each of them up and we drove around and talked while they ate their lunch. I love having that special time with them!

After lunch, I didn't feel like doing much as far as working out is concerned but I promised Brea that we could go for a walk using the new double jogging stroller. Apparently she feels that because it is called a "jogging" stroller I should have to actually jog the whole time. That is a good idea, in theory, but my body is not in shape for that! I was a good sport and jogged to the soccer complex and made it a couple times around, but then we had to do some walking. I was so tired out, but it felt really good to actually run again! The jogging stroller is so easy to push when the wind is at our backs, but that thing gets really heavy when we are running into the wind! I am look forward to more running this summer! I really don't enjoy running all that much, but I always feel so great when I am done!

These two are loving the jogging stroller!

We have soccer tonight so maybe we will walk around the track a time or two before we come home. I can't believe I have never had a jogging stroller before now. This thing is wonderful! It is so much easier to handle than our single stroller and now I don't have to carry Brea when she gets tired of walking. I just wish there was someone who would carry me when I get tired! I am excited to try this thing with my rollerblades. I should probably make sure we ALL have helmets on when that is attempted.

I hope the sun shines again soon. Although I loved the wind and cooler weather when I was running, I am still a devoted fan of the sun and I miss it dearly. After soccer, we could get a bit of rain to help my garden, then, in the morning, the sun can shine!

Day 137....who wants to join me for a run? :o)
