We walked


The Gap

No, not the store. The GAP ...when you are doing whatever it is you wanna do... and then you stop. Then you wanna start again but you feel discouraged. I haven't walked in 3 days. Now it is 13 minutes until walk time and I just don't wanna walk still. I'm feeling no motivation AND I feel the "what's the point" blues. Gonna walk today. I will even repost today, to confirm I walked. I'm making excuses like "I gotta find socks" and ...stuff. I need this. My pooch needs this.

Lazy : 0. Jenious : 1

Went to put my sneakers on, for my lunch time walk, and they weren't upstairs.

It crossed my mind to lay down on the couch and take a nap.
Yes, too lazy to walk downstairs (AND back up).

I won! I went down, got shoes, walked up, put shoes on AND went for a 1-mile walk.

This is our longest walk too!

Lazy toxin be gone

I've been lazy as long as I can remember.
These last few years, I feel I have had spurts of non-lazy Jenious. It is an on again off again relationship. 
I've been a lazy pet owner and last year decided that wasn't fair to the pets so...I would never be a pet owner again.

Now, I've inherited this great dog. He is a little crazy, like me.
A few days ago I was told to keep said dog safe I would need to do manual labor. (Fence building thing).
I said "ok, I will find him a new home. It isn't worth the effort".
If you've owned a dog, you just said WTF outloud or in your head.
Yeah....as soon as it came out of my mouth I realized not only am I lazy, I'm a moron.
Unconditional love isn't worth digging a little? ! Whoa.

So...I am determined to be a GOOD PET OWNER!

We went on two walks today.  He is getting much better at heeling.

Oh, and I've lost almost 10lbs.

Sunlight, sunbright..I wish I may, I wish I might...

I work from home. It rocks.
I recently moved my desk next to a window. I believe I need more sun.
I live in an area that has mostly sunny days, but in Winter I don't go outside enough.
I am really hoping this helps bring me out of my funk!

Two dog walk

Ok lesson #73252 If one dog (Blue) is barely leashed trained, be prepared for him to forget said training when you take the other dog with you on walk.
Thankfully Sadie (other dog) is well behaved on a leash. It wasn't as bad as it could have been. But ooouufff.

We went even further today, total distance and time.
Although still jogged the same stretch.
Was gone almost 30minutes. My goal is 45min.
Would have walked longer but started running into unleashed dogs. Gotta figure out a safer route.

Dog walk

I'm baaack!
Whoa...it has been too long.
Nothing has changed. I'm fat. I'm lazy. I'm eating junk.

I did inherit a dog. A neurotic dog.
Today we walked and jogged a bit.

I love helping others and apparently helping myself isn't a priority.  So I'm tricking myself. (Sshhhh)

My goal is to help this adorable mutt be a happy dog. He needs training, love and exercise.

Today we walked roughly 2 blocks (each way). Jogged on/off on the way back. My goal is to burn his energy. Helping him be calm and relaxed at home.
Side goal, me burn fat and help increase my energy.

Well, that is all that I've accomplished today. 8:23AM.
Hope to report again tomorrow.
