My home improvement project

Well I think the last vestige of NLF is gone, along with most of the pee smell. I tore the carpet out and put down some peel and stick tile that will do until I decide how much of the house I want to refloor.

It was pretty easy, all i needed was a box cutter and a yardstick.

More on being not lazy

Well, my first week of walking got me 14 miles, and very little foot pain. Did I mention that my Dawn gave me some really sound advice on the foot thing and it feels sooo much better?

Tonight my foot gets a workout at C-tel center for Hank Jr. We will see.

Did 2 1/2 miles around the neighborhood this morning. I walk so slowly. It took almost an hour to do that. I need to build speed. I used to do 3 miles in 40 minutes or so.

The "L" Word

Yep, I have to admit that the "L" word applies to me. As much as I hate to admit it, and as much as I would love to make excuses. But, the bottom line is that my mom didn't take care of herself, and she went downhill pretty fast. I want to live to have great grandchildren, even if I don't get to be in their lives. Sorry for the morbidity.

So, I got off my lazy ass this morning and went for a walk, and thanks to Google's Gmap pedometer that I remember DeAnn telling me about, I mapped my walk and found the I was just shy of 5 miles. I want to walk the 5k that DeAnn runs. Also, I am going to try to park at Drug Emporium again and walk my 3 miles at least a couple of days a week.

Okay, is this the beginning of accountability?
