Ok, I'm still thinking about maybe re-starting the jogging thing. I may have to think about this until after Thanksgiving. Wouldn't want to rush into anything. There are possible complications to consider: my thighs starting a fire, my butt flopping up and down and gaining momentum until it hits me in the back of the head (& I can't take any more head injuries), the repetitive pounding on the pavement making me shorter by wearing off my feet............you just can't rush into these things without examining the risks.
Besides, it's been raining for 2 days and today was so foggy all day that I couldn't see 50 yards in front of me. Creepy.
On a lighter note, think I'll make a black walnut pie for Thanksgiving. It would be the same as a pecan pie, just substituting black walnuts. Adventures in cooking!

Sheesh! It's been a looong time.
Ok, I think I'm ready to get back to my rants/chronicles/self-help posting. This will really surprise you, but I'm still fat. Don't think I'm much fatter than in April, when I last posted, but still.....
Since I posted I've added a lot of miles, walking and riding, but didn't keep track of them. Let's just say ....oh, how about 100. Sound good?
I hiked in Yosemite, Sequoia, none in King's Canyon, and a bit in Bishop, CA on our trip to CA in May. Mule Days in Bishop was a hoot. I liked seeing Yosemite but once is plenty.....way too many people.
Went trail riding in IN, PA, TN, MO, and MI. {And don't for one single minute think that I take all these travels for granted. I count my many blessing each and every day.}
Oh, oh, oh, and participated in Coach Strong's (U of Louisville football coach) Women's Football Camp. It was 90+ degrees at the stadium. We did indoor things, listened to presentations, demos, and player panels until lunch, then went to the field and the indoor practice facility (the hot box, aptly named) and the weight room (torture. Coach Kenny Carter asked me why I was laughing and not doing my pushups...I said that I don't speak Englich and tried to look confused...he yelled, "You don't have to speak English to do pushups. Get going!) All in fun. VERY tiring day. I'm too old and fat. But it was great fun.
So, I'm sorta getting the urge to start jogging again. Yeah, and without something chasing me. Now, I haven't started yet, but am thinking about it. That's the first step, right? (no pun intended).
I'll think on it some more. Wouldn't want to rush into anything.
