When
we first got our the rooms in our house
painted, we had wanted to have the sunroom
done with a venetian plaster look, but
the painter didn't do that type of work.
Recently, we had it done and really like
it.

Words for Walking!

The article bellow was first
posted on April 24, 2008 on "Hmm,
I don't know what to tell ya!"
"Going to the gym is becoming
routine. I leave the house by 8:30
am, stop and buy a newspaper for later,
and check in at the Lake House. My
regimen is this. I walk a little over
a mile on the treadmill and then move
on to the weight machines. The final
third of my workout is walking the
indoor track
While walking on the track, I was
having trouble keeping count of my
laps. I would finish a lap and think
"was that 4 or 5?" Therefore,
I decided that I needed a better way
of measuring how far I had gone. Since
24 laps made a mile, I decided walk
26 and give each one a name using
an alphabetical list of special words.
The special words I chose are attributes
or attitudes that need improvement
in my life. At the start of each lap,
I say the word to myself and then
ponder it as I walk. As prompts for
better motivation, I have decided
to begin a series of postings highlighting
each word. I am not sure how often
I will write, but my goal is to be
finished by my sixty-fifth birthday
on June 1."
