amazing

Yesterday I subbed in the same third grade classroom as the day before. I tucked my pedometer in my pocket and when I got home it read 4.64 miles, the same distance. I thought that was amazing! Today I will break out my new Nikes and walk on the Green way, my favorite trail. Also, I've got a ton of laundry to do!!

mileage

I wore my pedometer to school yesterday. I didn't look goofy because I used the small thin one that I carry in my pocket instead of the one that hooks onto my belt. I was in first grade and at the end of the day my total mileage was 4.71 miles. Today I did the same thing except I was in a third grade classroom. My total mileage today was 4.63 miles. Tomorrow I will be in the same third grade classroom and it will be interesting if I end up with the same number of miles.

subbing

My shopping trip on Friday was successful and I'm glad that I had the opportunity to go when I did as I am scheduled to teach for the next four days. I brought home three pairs of pants, actually had to go down two sizes! And two shirts. Also a new pair of Nikes for fall/winter walking.

not just for babies

Yesterday I had an ultrasound on my neck. He wants to find out which one of my parathyroid glands had "gone rogue." I am expecting a call today. I didn't have to undress for this test so I wore my walking clothes, my new MU tee and JCrew walking shorts. The test itself took all of ten minutes. I walked four miles yesterday and 4.83 miles the day before. Today I might drive to the Outlet Mall and do my walking there. I've just discovered that all of my pants are really baggy on me. And the styles now have more of a narrow leg. The weather here is beautiful and for some odd reason I feel like driving.

all grown up

Remember how I posted that I eat like a kid; peanut butter and jelly sandwiches everyday. Well, I've discovered hummus! My new favorite lunch: spinach artichoke hummus and chips, gotta have it every day! Oh yeah, I still have my daily fudge bar too. Next week I have an appointment with my third specialist to find out what to do with my wackadoodle parathyroid glands. I'm thinking that he will want to remove them so if you are reading this, please pray for me. Operations scare me! To get my mind off things, I bought another new bracelet yesterday. A Brighton black and gold bead bracelet in honor of MU joining the SEC. I can't find my silver MU bracelet with the tiger paw charm and Truman. I hope that I have just misplaced it and that it is not gone for good as I always like to wear it during football season.
