Weather, Walking, Back to Class

We got a little bit of rain, but the temperature was much cooler today, I think the high was only 79. Tink and I did 2 miles after my first summer Brit Lit class. I am going to work on Statistics as soon as I post this. I can do statistics - I know I can!

Nick and I went to see the new Indiana Jones last Friday night. We both felt it to be Dvd material. Blech. But don't get me started on Heroes! Ay yi yi! Start watching it from season one - what a winner! Adrian Pasdar is from Boothwyn near Philly - and he is one of many in an excellent cast. Go - now- rent Heroes!

Have you taken time to breathe today? I am doing a new meditation exercise from Thich Nhat Hanh's The Energy of Prayer. It is so beautiful. Here are a few lines from it:

Breathing in, I feel joyful.
Breathing out, I taste the source of peace and joy.

Breathing in, I dwell in the present moment.
Breathing out, it is a wonderful moment.


I wish you present moments.

Weekend Walking in Wilmington, Etc.

As you can tell, the foot on the right spends more time in the sun than the foot on the left! Laurie and I had a blast. We did not walk on the beach. We rested and watched the ocean. It was our duty. And, yes, we hoisted a few beers.

We did do quite a bit of walking around Wilmington. We walked every day along the Cape Fear for one reason or another. Usually involving food, alcohol, music, or any combination thereof. And of course, we played Peanuts! Of course! And I got to talk to all three of her kiddos - even the one across the pond - and Tommy was there for some of the fun, too.

The Flyers: The boys will be back next year - and we are in for a fantastic season. We went from the basement to the Eastern Finals! We have talent, youth, age, and a phenomenal goalie in Biron. Love my boys!

3Day Update: I am a bit off track with the walking. Among my many wondrous Mother's Day gifts (luckiest mom in the whole world here) Kate added joint support to my supplements. It is better; I mowed today and no throbbing. I'll be doing Kennesaw Mountain this weekend, so we will see.

I have contributions! I am on my way! Thanks to Vicki, Bill and Regina, Mom and Dad, Jeanne, and Uncle T. Not all the money is at the site yet, but soon. Please go to my site via the widget on the right column and contribute. And pass it forward. We need a cure now.

I am having some difficulty with my left arch, due to wearing a shoe without any absorption for an entire day, so that is why my numbers are lower. But I did two hours of yardwork today and it did not start to hurt til the end. I am planning on the Mountain tomorrow afternoon so I iced it tonight. Anyhow, it is time to get to the fundraising now that I have got the trainer! Donate - and pass it on!
