Day #52

I had a great day today, but I almost missed out on taking a walk! Tom and I took a "Polly Adventure" today and drove to the Road Kill Cafe in Artemas, PA. We had a great time! On the way back home we passed through Hancock, Maryland and I noticed that the Rail Trail had been cleared off, so I suggested that we should take a walk...Tom agreed, or at least I thought he did. We started walking and had only been doing so for 7 minutes, when he asked if I was ready to head back to the car. He said he was wearing new shoes and his feet were already killing him....I grudgingly agreed to turn around. Total time: 14 minutes! Wow! Impressive!

We got home late in the afternoon and I started to work on my website almost immediately. I lost track of time, and before I knew it, the sun was starting to set! I yelled out, "Oh no, I'm going to miss my walk!" For some reason my husband thought that was hysterical, however he agreed to pick me up over by the mall. I knew I could get there while it was still light, but getting home was another story altogether.

Okay...I hit an all time low today...I had to take my walk inside of Wal-Mart because the mall closed at 6:00! What's that old saying? Ah yes, desperate times call for desperate measures! I could have easily blamed Tom for having sore feet, but that would have be too easy, so instead, I have to blame myself for losing track of time! I really hoofed it around Wal-Mart, and let me tell you, I got some interesting looks. Guess what? I don't really care! :o) Just as he promised, Pierre picked me up after I had walked for an hour.
