Bizi,


Yeah-- I do not understand why some people have to start so early. It is not a million degrees where you are right now. A walk that starts late morning might even get more people.
Maybe you should become in charge of it and change some things.
Have fun.
You are doing great AF.

Mari

Went to bed last night at 930pm which is a first as I am up after midnight usually. The alarm went off at 5;30 got right up and made a smoothie using frozen blueberries and fresh strawberries and pea protein powder. Drank 2 cups of coffee and I left the house at 610am met paula at a mcdonalds at 630and and she drove us to the town of opelousas for the veterans walk. For a 7;30 check in time. This was the first year for it and it started at 8am. Why does it have to be that early?????
There were only 100 people running and us 2 walking! lol
oh well, it is what it is!
I am very disappointed that paula will not be walking with me on the 8th. she thought the next walk was this next weekend and she made flight plans to go see her grand daughter in north carolia on the 8th.
Originally She asked me to walk with her and now she is bailing out!
This is a big run/walk. 2,000 participants, I asked jeff if he would walk with me...he doesn't know...I asked another friend she was not sure...
sigh. I may go by myself.... Paula said to go anyway that it would push me out of my comfort zone for growth.... She is right. I have much anxiety about doing this by myself.
anyway
jeff is on his way back from the north part of the state, helped with a beer festival for his friend then played with the band for entertainment afterward.
He said he had a good time!
I went to 2 different farmers markets in town picked out some small light purple egg plants and some persimmons and fresh tabouli and chicken salad for dinner tonight. Had a taste of some "healthy" gumbo...mine is better!
Will also have some butternut squash soup from sandras the health food store that I have lunch at during the week, where I met paula.
Going to see the movie Saint vincent tonight with a girl friend.
Think it has bill murray and the comedic actress from bridesmaids.
Should be funny.
Then Jeff and I are going to the museum of fear at our local science museum, halloween attraction. So that will be a late night.
Tomorrow we head to baton rouge AGAIN to see the 13th gate horror attraction that was closed last sunday when we went, no fault of our own....date was not blacked out on our tickets. And also to the chimes restaurant for my favorite dish, new orleans style BBQ shrimp in a butter peppery sauce with a corn cake in the middle with a round roll for dipping into the sauce. Delicious. They also sell many beers on draft so I am sure that I will have some there.
Anyway Baton rouge should be fun, delicious and hopefully a little scarey!
Earlier, I felt like taking a nap but ate a late lunch and drank a cold cup of coffee and am wide awake now.
It is a beautiful day. 70 and the sun is shining.
This morning it was in the 50's so I was chilly, thankful for my long sleeve shirt and leggings(tight fitting yoga pants).
I walked an 8k(5 miles roughly) in one hour and 20 minutes. that is roughly 16 minute mile average. On the tred mill I was walking about 17 minute miles.
So was happy about that.
Last year I bought an expandable water hose, I use it to water the plants on the back porch. The plants were all drooping so I knew that they needed water so I carefully took the hose around the laid out skeletons that jeff was working on, glued in various positions. When I went to turn it on it expanded and I was able to water the back plants but when I shut it off at the nozzle the back up pressure was too much for the hose and it burst open, water going everywhere...on his skeletons which were fine I am sure already set but still that should not have happened! Now I need to get a new hose!
I hope that you have a nice day and enjoy the rest of the weekend.

How did you like Bill Murray and Melissa McCarthy?

The weather is changing here too.
It has not really settled into a pattern -- just different from three or four weeks ago.

Have a good day on Sunday.
Keep taking care.

Thank you mari!
we ended up not seeing the movie. we were given the wrong tickets and did not notice it until the wrong movie started, wonder why it started later than scheduled
sigh
the movie we sat thru was a guy movie, shoot them up...another sigh
We had dinner prior to the movie at a new pizza place called mellow mushroom. liked it a lot! groovy decor.
Had the tye dye pizza. it had chicken curry thai sauce and tomatoes really yummy. little sweet spicy.
another nice day today...looks like it will be nice and warm for halloween...no rain in sight.
Jeff bought a crank ghost to put up in the garage this year. she is great!
bizi who got up late this morning...too much to drink.
sigh

Dear Bizi,

I hate those action movies too -- esp on a Movie screen. On TV they are not as bad.

How do you know if the ghost is mail or female?
