I Love Spring!


Today I decided to bring comfortable shoes, so that I could walk during lunch. It was fantastic. All the flowers are in bloom, and it's about 70 - 75 degrees outside, there's a nice breeze. I just really enjoyed it.

The reason I want to start walking is to try to get back into shape. I was doing the aerobics/kickboxing classes at lunch, but it's been a while since I've been to one. Those aren't the type of classes you can just decide to start back up, unless you want to pass out and/or vomit in front of the people you work with. I do not fit that category, so I'm trying to build back up.

Today was such a pleasant experience, I think I might just stick to walking for a while.

Back to "I Love Spring".....

Tonight my husband and I will go to Wal-Mart, because it's "grocery night". We usually drive through St. Elmo on the way from downtown to the Wal-Mart. There's a cemetery in St. Elmo where my mother used to always take me to look at the dogwoods/azaleas. I hope I can talk my husband into stopping by the cemetery so that I can see the flowers.

This is one of my favorite times of the year. I love the week or two where the dogwoods are starting to bloom, and the redbuds are still in bloom, and the azaleas are starting to bloom. Gorgeous! Don't forget to enjoy it while it lasts!

I wish I was there to walk with you! It's pretty here too, and whenever I see something in bloom, I always think "Amanda would love that."
