So this is my year of walks...

Nothing fancy. It is exactly what it says it is. Over the next year, I want to take a walk every day. For an entire year. Hopefully, along my journey I can discover better health, weight loss, and a sense of direction and purpose in my life. And so my journey begins. On my way to a better me.

Mar 9, 2010

Sometimes, this is how I FEEL when I head out to take a walk. I feel like an old lady weighed down with baggage, and tonight I was confronted directly with this image. Well, I'm NOT that old lady, and I don't have all that baggage. So when I think about how I don't want to get out there because of how I FEEL, I'll think of this lady who's just out there doing it. She's not complaining. She's just walking. And doing her thing. And so must I.

Went up to the CVS tonight to pick up some items. Made that my walk tonight. Functional walk. So me and that elderly woman are out doing our shopping. And walking. If you ever don't think you have something in common with someone, look closer. I'll bet you do.

This made me smile. It's a 1964 VW Bus. It reminded me of the bus in LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE. I kept waiting for the horn to go off unexpectedly. This bus was for sale. Trust me, it's fully restored and in amazing condition. Sale price... $21,500 OBO. Got any extra cash lying around? Anyone?

There's even a dancing hula girl on the front dash. I hope she comes with the sale price.

And the journey continues... 68 complete.
