Yesterday I walked three miles and lifted weights at the Y. This morning I walked 5.17 miles. To change things up, I walked the original Green way track. The one that runs past the tennis courts, the new animal shelter and all the way to the doctor's offices. Then of course, all the way back. It was a good walk. And because I am between books and nothing sounds real interesting on my Kindle, I started putting a puzzle together. It's one that I had in my second grade classroom and the kids put it together several times. I swear there are some pieces missing.

in love

I was never crazy in love with my new Ford Edge. Oh there were things that I liked about it; keyless entry, rear view camera, sitting up high. That's about it. It wasn't fun to drive and I didn't care for the color. So before I racked up too many miles I traded that sucker off and Mother's Day weekend took possession of a new Jeep. Now I'm crazy in love and Yes, it is fun to drive!

Chick-fil-A

Yesterday we ate at Chick-fil-A. It was after ten in the morning and already getting warm outside. It was freezing inside. When they brought us our order, we both felt like asking for blankets to go along with it.

reading

My friend who knows that I only read nonfiction recommended Mission at Nuremberg by Tim Townsend. It is the story of a Lutheran minister from St. Louis who became the army chaplain to the Nazis during the Nuremberg trials. It is very interesting and I am learning a lot of the history of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod. It is an easy read and a good war story even if you aren't a Lutheran.

saturday and sunday

Saturday I went fishing with the Mr. We took our boat to the Lake of the Ozarks. The water was so clear and blue. There was quite a lot of traffic on the water; big speed boats and cruisers which made for choppy water. Even with that, we caught our limit of crappie. I'm not gonna lie, he caught most of them.
On Sunday I was overdue for walking. I walked downtown and across the bridge a total of four miles. It was a glorious, warm, sunny day.

life changing

I've been seriously thinking that this will be my last year of subbing. It has been a good job for me and I have enjoyed being back in the classroom, especially the autism room. But I want to have more time for walking and riding my bike. I want to have more time for reading and being lazy around my house. I want to volunteer my time doing something else. I might become a tour guide at the old state prison. I've always enjoyed true crime.
