Friends can make you move!

So yesterday I did some sit-ups - that's it. It wasn't a great day for moving on purpose. I did make a photo album on Snapfish of our trip to Florida! Here's a favorite...

But today my friend Jill called to see if I wanted to walk tomorrow morning around Reeds Lake and reminded me of moving on purpose - and I decided I would. Later. Then I went and stained the new stairs my husband installed to our basement. They look great! I thought, "Wow, I am all sticky and did a lot of work! Does this count?" A few minutes later my friend Theresa called to see if I wanted to walk now.

At this moment I wondered if these two friends of mine from different walks of life who happen to be in the same running group were conspiring together to be mentioned in my blog :)

Really what I thought was that friends ROCK. Another thing I don't lack is the ability to drop everything when a friend calls to do something. Sometimes this is a great trait. Other times I need to really ponder whatever I should be doing at that moment.

But at the moment Theresa called I wasn't doing much. Brandon was napping with Owen. I pumped (that great invention) and got ready to go on a walk. It was a GREAT 2 mile walk. We chatted and walked at a fabulous pace that made me sweat. Sometimes I think of Matthew McConaughey and how he says that you shouldn't go through a day without sweating. You shouldn't go through a day without thinking of Matthew McConaughey either!

Tomorrow morning at 8:30am I am going to walk with Jill around Reeds Lake - about 4 miles. I think Lunges and Laundry are scheduled for later this week!
