Today I felt like Fozzie bear because I took a long “walk-a” 🙂

I actually love walking. It’s my second favorite form of exercise (after running of course!). I can walk for hours and just think about life, chat on the phone and observe the world around me. I have a lot on my mind right now and really enjoyed just playing my head movies this morning and pondering life.

I actually wrote out my New Year’s Resolutions last night and thought about my goals for 2010 too. My  head is all over the place right now.

I also love that I can slow down and take pictures on my walks.

Today I saw my shadow:IMG_2966

Some pretty red bushes with super bright leaves:IMG_2968

And a downed “No Parking” sign. I guess someone really wanted to park there… IMG_2963Before I walked, I ate breakfast. I’m happy to eat at a “normal” (for me) breakfast time – now I’m back on schedule! I made cinnamon raisin toast with almond butter and pumpkin butter. I am going through that jar of chunky almond butter way.too.fast!!IMG_2959

I love this green rectangular plate – perfect for open faced sandwiches! IMG_2957My stomach is already growling again! I’m gonna grab some fruit and get to work 🙂

Happy Thursday!

    Walking has to be my favorite form of exercise. I walk when I’m happy, I walk when I’m sad, I walk when I’m feeling strong, and I walk even when I’m feeling tired. I love walking! I envy how you can go walking in your neighborhood. So many pretty things to see. Here, it’s all smog and garbage. Not too inspiring….

    Karla, luckily I was able to dodge the tomatoes 🙂

    Rose – the toast was inspired by you!

    I love taking long walks. I could walk for hours and not feel like any time has passed. It is so calming and relaxing.

    It’s so funny, because I never just go on a walk. I probably should though, sounds relaxing!

    Walks are so much fun. I found myself walking on the treadmill last night instead of running, and it felt great. It gives me a chance to decompress and think about things. I love the toast-it looks amazing! Sometimes the simplest things are the best 🙂

    I love going for a leisurely walk – there are so many things that I miss while I am running – I tend to zone out until I am focusing on speed or distance 🙂

    I agree that walking is much more relaxing and if your take your camera with you, you’ll see all kinds of stuff worth photographing.

      No I know, I do LOVE to walk. But I’d never thought about it as an exercise before, more of a fun activity. I think I’ll try to bring my camera and speedwalk, so it’s fun and exercise! 🙂

    This post made me smile! I just got back from physical therapy and I can’t run for another week. I’m pissed off, but you made walking sound pretty exciting! 🙂
