Happy Hump Day

Here we are, already half-way through yet another week. Today was a lovely day off, spending time with Peanut, enjoying the beautiful weather. We went and did some grocery shopping, he really enjoys looking around at everyone and everything. It's absolutely incredible to me who talks to him the most... men. Anywhere from middle aged to "I have 3 granddaughters". Grown men turn on their soft, baby voices and chat with Peanut like no one else is around. I love seeing the gentle side of guys, even if they are complete strangers.

I estimate I haven't actually run, say a mile, in probably 10 years plus, and even back then it was tough. Well, I'm very slowly working my way up. I figure I probably ran anywhere from a quarter to half mile today on my walk (I realize that sounds like nothing to some people, but I never felt as though my body was made for running). Although I don't mind the elliptical in the cold, stark gym, it feels so good to be outside, looking at the scenery and breathing the fresh air... til I can hardly breathe. :) It sure feels good.
