January 7th 2020: Take a long walk

I could easily say that my morning errands and grocery shopping count towards today's challenge. It also crossed my mind that I just use my walk to the thrift store on my birthday. Or maybe I should count my phone call earlier today. (I'm a serious pacer on the phone, regardless of how comfortable I am with whomever I'm talking with or most other circumstances.) I didn't though, because that seems counterproductive to why I gave myself these challenges. Instead, I got my kids ready for bed and put my dog's harness on and set off on our walk. (I was planning on taking both, but my other dog was in time out for eating the cat's food.)

It felt nice to listen to an audiobook and have a peaceful walk in the dark with just my dog. We didn't go on the longest walk, mostly because I was really cold. (My hands felt like they were on fire when I got home) However, it felt like a much needed time out that I almost talked myself out of taking.

ps. sorry these pictures are super blurry, I was really cold and/or still walking.
