March

Day One: Excuses, excuses, excuses! Spent to much time getting Billy on the road this morning and then too much time dealing with him not being home tonight.
Day Two: Thought about it, several time, but didn't follow through. It really is a challenge to find "me" time when Billy is out of town, especially during busy season.
Day Three:ZUMBA! Only about 15 minutes but it was so much fun!
Day Four: Cleaned the house, shopping, planted outside - very active today. Gorgeous weather to be out!
Day Five: Nothing more than caring for the animals - which I'm convinced must count for something when Billy is out of town. I'm home two or three times during the day - up the stairs and down the stairs over and over and over again.
Day Six: Nothing I could really count - just the same as yesterday - except I did do some last minute cleaning before Billy gets home tomorrow - dusting and vacuuming, but not a ton of it.
Day Seven: Was so happy Billy was home that was all that mattered!
Day Eight: Missed it.
Day Nine: Missed it.
Day Ten: Walked to work and back. Wanted to ride my bike but I had a flat!
Day Eleven: Worked outside - planting flowers, carrying plants and so forth and I spent a ton of time in the kitchen. I'm always moving a lot when I cook - grabbing stuff, washing stuff and so on. Then I walked up the street to do some volunteer accounting work. Pretty active day!
Day Twelve: Did a little Zumba dancing in the wee hours this morning!
Day Thirteen: board meeting that lasted 2 hours killed it all. My thighs were still hurting this morning after all of Sunday's planting so I skipped the morning with the plan to do it after my meeting. I didn't get home until 9 o'clock and was too aggravated at that point to be productive.
Day Fourteen: started off with the best of intentions - standing on the Wii deciding whether I wanted to cycle or obstacle course and all the batteries died. Decided that was an omen that I needed to go back to bed and drink coffee with Billy. I go to work so early we don't get to do that very often during the week, especially in busy season. But all was not lost! I salvaged the day with a 30 minute walk after after dinner with Doozer. It was a beautiful night but we did more than just stroll.
Day Fifteen: I replaced all the batteries in the Wii and started my day off with about 10 mintues - while the coffee was brewing. Thought I would do more when I got home but it was not to be.
Day Sixteen: rode my bike to work and home, including lunch, so that was about 2.5 miles - even if it was spread out over 4 "rides". Also walked from the office to the bank to take care of some business and back after lunch.
Day Seventeen: Started with joining the Kiwanis Club to pick up trash this morning. Spent about 45 minutes out there. We didn't walk too terribly far or very fast, but there was a lot of bending and stretching so it was all good.
Day Eighteen: Worked out in the yard - scrubbing mold and mildew off the front porch and the garden wall. Went through 3 bottles of Clorox Clean-up. Then I gave Sadie a bath. Pretty active day.
Day Nineteen: 10 minutes on the Wii. My back and upper arms are killing me after yesterday!
Day Twenty: Started with 10 minutes on the Wii. Jog/walked 2 miles after dinner. Felt good!
Day Twenty-one: Jog/walked 2 miles after dinner. 3 minutes faster than yesterday so hopefully that means I jogged more than I walked the night before.
Day Twenty-two: according to the Wii, I'm down a few pounds this week. So nice to see the arrow heading in that direction again! I skipped my morning routine thinking I could walk after dinner but the deluge hit at work and it was already dark. Hate that I missed it!
Day Twenty-three: Took off with Doozer after dinner for the 2 mile jog/walk. Only made 1.6 miles. We ran into a friend walking her dog and stopped to visit. It was too dark to keep going and Doozer was beat. He was beat because I ran over half of the route! Yea me!
Day Twenty-four: Wasn't feeling it, but took Doozer out for our jog/walk anyway, and covered the whole miles. I still did it in about 30 minutes so even though I didn't run as much as I walked, I walked very quickly.
Day Twenty-five: Like the Sundays before, we worked outside. We expanded our patio and all with repurposed bricks from elsewhere around the house. Lots of bending and stooping and carrying and moving. Overall, about 3 hours outside. Felt good and the day was just too beautiful to not be outside enjoying it.
Day Twenty-six: Recovery day. And that is what it is! My thighs hurt from all the lifting yesterday, my back is sore. Going to crawl in bed early and "exercise" my right to rest.
Day Twenty-seven: Started off with 10 minutes on the Wii while I waited for the coffee to brew. Finished the day with 2.12 miles walk/jog.
Day Twenty-eight: 10 minutes on the Wii while the coffee brewed and the puppies ran around outside. I did have to laugh. Doozer came in and rested his paws on the balance board while I was exercising. The Wii told me my weight was very different - did I want to proceed? Glad to know it's watching out for me. Finished the night with a 2 mile walk with Doozer. He is loving it! But he's still a handful on the leash so we can't do it every night. At least not yet.
Day Twenty-nine: Little bit of time on the Wii this morning, but not much. The work hours are getting to me and I slept a little longer. Started out on my run but it go called on account of rain after a mile. I can take heat and I can bear cold but I HATE getting wet.
Day Thirty: few minutes on the Wii. Mostly focused on getting things done so I can leave early in the morning.
Day Thirty-One: had more important things to do today. Drove to Carlisle to spend the day with my grandmother. Most likely will not have another chance.
