Soooo, there has been a lot of snow and ice around this town. Kinda hinders the getting out exercising thing. I did, however get out and walk around every day, just not as much as I would have liked to. I have always had this insane desire to go out after a storm of any sort and see the damage (in this case, no real damage, just to see what all is completely covered with that white stuff). I remember vividly walking my neighborhood after Hurrican Opel (I think thats the one) when I was a kid. I wanted to see all the limbs everywhere, all the trees down in the woods behind my house, etc. The snow we had earlier this season, the first thing I wanted to do the next day was hop in the truck and see what was going on. So what did I do this time? After waiting for part of the day after it all fell, I headed out in the truck. This is one of the many reasons I will always have 4 wheel drive, I like to take these small adventures and want to be prepared for them. It was pretty crazy that first day, after that the ice showed up and kinda ruined everything. 4 tires spinning on ice is just as bad at 2, so I headed out on foot. Not the full walk by any means, but better than nothing I suppose. The next day, again on foot, headed to Chick-fil-A, just for an adventure. Yesterday, 2 trips to the school and back, again not the full length walk. We get to go back to work tomorrow, should be interesting. I am excited to hear about everyone's long break and see what they did to entertain themselves. In the time I did spend in the house, I cleaned up some, and hung the baseball display case my dad hand made for me for Christmas. Pops is pretty good with the woodworking, those of you who have taken the hour long tour of the shop have seen his work.
I realized today at the grocery store that I need to start making a menu of sorts for the week. I have realized that I aimlessly walk around the store, and buy stuff that sounds good to me at the time (I do my best to never go in there hungry). If I make a menu for the week then I will buy specific things and hopefully it will save me money on not eating out as much. So, not eating out means, less chance of me having a coke, and I should be eating better.
My Goals for the up coming week:
Extend my walk by 10 minutes every day.
Develop a menu before I go shopping.
