Whoosh!!!


Wow! Where do the weekends go?? They just fly right by, don’t they. I know that I got things done….housework mostly. Some studying. Grocery shopping. Woo hoo. Do I know how to have a good time or what? Weekends are supposed to be for being lazy and enjoying life...need to do more of that, less chores, and cherish the time with my family. Maybe I will try sleeping in next Saturday....see if I can make it past my built-in 7:30 alarm clock.
I got to see some of the coverage of the Pope over the weekend. Fox News carried the Mass he had at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in NYC on Saturday….this is only the 2nd Mass I have ever seen, so it was interesting to watch. After Communion and the service had ended, Pope Benedict was taking his leave up the main aisle of the church, escorted by a bunch of clergymen, the Secret Service, ect. When all of a sudden, this flock of little old nuns rush the Pope as he walks past them! It looked like a bunch of fans mobbing the Beatles! The Secret Service men had to push them back to let the Holy Father pass. It was wild. Who’d have thought the security detail would have to worry about nuns?
Didn’t get a chance to walk my usual mile before work this morning….fighting a sinus infection, feeling like sludge. Can’t walk my mile at lunch, either…have to leave work early to take my son to the orthodontist, so no lunch for me. It drives me nuts to miss my treadmill time…I feel like such a slacker when I do…. but I’ll make it up this afternoon.
Looking forward to returning to SPRING this week!! And GO JAZZ!!!

I didn't hear that about the Pope, pretty funny! :O)
How many days a week are you walking? If you can do it 5 or 6 you are doing great, so don't beat yourself up over missing one day!!!
