May. 11th, 2004 07:49 amI've been getting a bit more exercise this week. Yesterday I walked 5000 steps (just over 3 miles) on my morning walk and then did all the yard work. Today, instead of just walking around the block on an off day, I walked another 4500 steps. With a couple of hills involved. It felt good. this is happy!
Had a fun night with my boy yesterday. The weather was too yucky for a picnic, so I barbequed and we ate at home. We were going to watch a DVD, but Jeffrey couldn't get his computer to project a DVD on the TV. So we watched a video of Aristocats instead. Jeffrey hadn't seen it, and it has been years since I watched it. Very cute movie. Lots of innacuracies that we made fun of, but we laughed and enjoyed the artwork.
We watched about a half-hour in the middle of the Disney rendition of Wrinkle in Time. I have to say that I didn't like it. Of course, I very rarely like movies of my favorite books because they never get the characters the way I imagine them and they always slaughter the story... It's been just long enough since I read the book that I couldn't tell if the things that felt just wrong about the Disney version were story mess ups or just my memory. anyway... there's my 2 cents... :-)
I think today is going to be a quiet around the house working sort of day. I'm going to be creative with my stamps. I'm going to do some paid work. I might do some grocery shopping (if I dont' have everything I need for dinner...). The rainy weather is great for my plants, however it does leave me feeling a bit gray and lethargic myself... :-)
