Notes:  I was thinking about walking somewhere else....but the lake is so beautiful.  I decided to just take my chances and this time I hiked through the woods first, then the rat crossing....then I'd be home free on the paved path.

At first I decided that going through the woods would encourage me to run.  And I did...for about a minute and then I realized if I did encounter a dangerous animal that I would now be too out of breath to run from it.  Also...it's much more difficult to avoid animal poopy on the path when you are running.

As I approached the area where I saw the Raccoons...I was doing a continuous scan of the woods, trees and path....and I about died when I saw movement and thought it was a mountain lion but it was just a tabby cat.  Now...this cat is chasing me through the woods.  Great.  And hey...guy who lives on the edge of the woods with the BEAR CROSSING sign on your gate.  Very funny.

I made it through without seeing any wild animals!  And then on the paved path I decided to job and my iPhone popped out of my pocket and then my headphones fell out and the little rubby things that sit in your ears when flying into the weeds.  It took me 5 minutes to find them.

I need to find my iPhone holder thing.

I exercised like crazy today...took my walk and then went with a walk with the kids.  I did squats while my coffee was brewing and during Young and the Restless.  By 3pm...I was exhausted!

  1. I run with my iPhone in my hand and no headphones :) I like to be able to hear what's going on around me, in case someone tries to sneak up on me. Pepper spray is in the other hand.

    You're doing great Connie! You'll be at 180 and in that new cabin in no time :)
