I've been going jogging every morning before the sun gets too hot. I've never been an athletic person. Like at all. Seriously. But I'm really proud of myself because last week I was able to jog a full mile without stopping to rest, then a few days later I jogged TWO miles without stopping! For a lot of people I'm sure two miles is nothing, but to me, I felt like I just climbed Everest. It was a really big deal in the story of my life! :]
I love being able to just sit and do nothing. When I'm in school, I don't get that time, unless I'm taking a time out while I wait for ink to dry or waiting for someone. But this summer I can actually RELAX and just watch the birds and the rain. It's such a great feeling.
I have really wide feet (a la picture #1) so it's really hard for me to find shoes that fit. I found these Minetonka moccasins at Marshall's for $22 and they fit really well so I was pretty psyched!
Other things I'm looking forward to:
- Going to Columbus OH tomorrow with my sister in celebration of her becoming a registered nurse!
- Having a couple friends over for craft day on Sunday!
- Teaching some art classes for kids in July!!
- My favorite show, Destination Truth returning for season 6 on July 10th!
- Re-reading my favorite book, Eat Pray Love!
2 miles takes FOREVER. You are not alone. And I give you so many props for actually sticking with running. I try and then the next morning I'm like "well... maybe the next day".
ReplyDeleteAnd great job on the bird photo! I can't ever get a good one (but I think that's 'cause they're always in motion).
This summer... I don't really have too many plans, but I am pumped for my birthday celebration! We're going to have dinner the day before and then go to the midnight showing of the new Batman movie! And I guess there's Summerfest, so that's always entertaining (Wisconsin = a lot of drunk people).
