New Year's Eve!

I'm back in the routine of walking on a daily basis. For one of my new years resolutions, I'd like to tone up in some areas where I've lost inches. I have some parts that I am far from happy with.

Happy New Year and the best to you and yours!

Introducing "Santa" level!

It's a bit dated but Santa is the next level for me to achieve on this Florida trek. Over the Christmas holiday, I was 'introduced' to more of Mom's artwork and I am not just going to feature four of her pieces but rather six or maybe seven.

Due to the holiday season, I thought it's best to have a Santa level now instead of 25 or so miles later. I will unveil the next achievement levels on my "Current level" spreadsheet soon.

Merry Christmas (or "happy holidays")

To all my faithful readership, though it may ever be so small!

Introducing "Charlie Hustle"!

No, it's not Pete Rose of baseball fame. It's a painted gourd, in shape of a pumpkin, completed by my mom. Though she says she's not a talented artist, I beg to differ. "Charlie Hustle" and three other of her artwork will be my motivational levels until I achieve the 600 mile marker.

Unexpected rain event..

Caused me to miss my Saturday walk. I am beside myself. It had been quite some time when I hadn't walked at least 7 straight days. The weather on Saturday was miserable. Now I need to make it up.

But the Zen Micro is a back and in business. Only 2 miles until Flamingo point!

Only..

9 more miles until the official "second" level, Flamingo point! Hopefully this will be achieved this weekend!

Onto Flaming point!

I've reached the white heron level but haven't uploaded a photo for a flamingo, but I do have one! The Zen Micro arrived over the weekend but it isn't back in business yet.

After reaching the Flamingo point, I plan on taking a break from the animal based motivation levels and am planning to do four (between 525-600) artistic ones. I have to check with the artist first.

Sneaking in a level..

I sort of ran out 'levels', but found one and started on it without placing a photo up. It's the White Heron. Onto 450!

Tough with these holidays. Don't know if I'd put on a couple of pounds as I don't have scale...yet. My current reasoning is I choose not to be a slave to it. My clothes are the telltale sign. I put something on that was way too tight before and now it fits. That in itself is awesome!
