My 49th year

Yeah, my body is saying what the hell.  I think the trainer though I was crazy at first, but she got all into.  By the second lap, I was hurting and thinking what the hell did I get myself into.  There are parts of my body never hurt before.  Quite frankly, it the feeling of accomplishment that keeps me going, when I know I want to quit. 

Well, the day has come.  Happy 49th birthday.  I had a blast at happy hour.  I have a feeling 49 will be great. 

Who knew that if you are a Caribou perks member you get a free birthday drink.  Just found out when I stopped by after doing 7 miles on the in door track today.  Although we were inside, it was still brutal.  That equals to walking for 2.4 hours straight.  My feet hurt and at different points in time my legs, butt, and toes hurt; but the enforcer kept me going with words of encouragement even when I was grouchy.  And boy was I grouchy during the last hour or so.  Note to self, can't really eat a full meal less than an hour to walking.  Yep,  burping up bacon the entire walk.  Now, I'm sitting on the patio enjoying the breeze listening to my chimes, enjoying the hot weather.  Almost like my own personal sauna.  I am thankful for all God, my Parents, family and friends have done for me and continue to do for me.  Lift is good and this year will be even better. 

Yes, I love to garden, Yes for the most part I have a green thumb, but not everything grows the way I want it to grow.  Kind of like life, it is not always the way we planned it to be.  I had a great conversation with a church member today.  It was such a good conversation that we talked for about 2 hours after mass.  It was one of those conversations that made your soul feel good.  We talked about life, love, God and finding peace in your life.  Food for the soul. 

I love to garden.  This year I have strawberries and mint.  Not sure what else I will plant  but I definitely have to get ride of the fat ass bunny rabbit that think my strawberries are it's next meal... bunny got to go

Did 7 miles today.  We walked around Palmer lake twice plus an extra mile.  Did ok.  Had normal and salt water.  I think the key is salt water.  I wasn't naucious and not dehydrated, but it was like in the 50's for the walk.  All is good.  Now in to more miles.
