I had the full intention of walking this afternoon after my school day. I brought my gear. I had my hubby set up to pick up the high schooler. I even "watched" what I ate for lunch so I wouldn't be sluggish. But as the temperature rose and the sun peaked out I lost my momentum (maybe my mojo) just when I should have been saying to myself, "Yes! It is finally over 30 degrees and there's no wind and the sun is shining!" What gives?
As 3 o'clock approached I was still in my school teaching clothes and I sat in on meeting getting underway about our proposed school budget (for FY 2011). Is there anything more draining than talking facts and figures? I kept looking at my watch and knew I had to at the very least show up at the meeting place - Dutchies Store - so no one would be left hanging around, wondering where I was.
AS it turned out, only one other person showed up this afternoon, my pal Joanne. I got out of my car and she looked out to see me still in a skirt and very obviously NOT walking shoes.
I apologized for my malaise and said, "How about coffee?" She quickly said sure and there you have it - instant "no guilt" - just coffee and talk!
As for the temporary malaise - I'll make up for it tomorrow by going skiing at 1 PM. Walk training group at 4:30. Oh - and doing my Day 3 pushup routine before the day is through. Hey - I never said I was perfect.
