Joined the gym today! - 34.04 total miles

Well, my walking today consisted of walking a bit in the mall, just around, not laps and grocery shopping, neither of which I counted on my distance. I picked up Vinny form school on foot, so that's my .84 miles for the day. At the mall, I joined Gold's Gym (for three years, yipes!) and got a great deal for both me and my husband Mat. Best of all, babysitting is included, so I can go for an hour or so and have someone watch Nick right on the premises. Of course, even though he'll be very close, I'm still nervous about it. I wore Nico to pick Vinny up so my back is a bit achy right now. I roasted a chicken and potatoes last night which we didn't get to eat because we ate too late of a lunch (4pm) so no one wanted to eat "dinner". Going to have that for supper tonight and make soup with the leftovers. I actually found barley, bulgar wheat, basmati rice and jasmine rice at the store today, so I'm going to try incorporating those into my meals for more fiber. (And in lieu of high-sugar white carbs like pasta and bread). I also bought my Turkey for the pot luck at church, and some fresh cranberries for sauce. I'm also going to make roasted garlic mashed potatoes because I bought a HUGE bag of potatoes and we'll never make it through them before they grow eyes! I've been bad about posting here lately. I'm going to make an effort to get here every day. Tomorrow morning, I'm heading to the gym for an hour, and then hopefully I'll have my interview at 10am for an at home job I applied for. I'll tell more as I find out more. Until tomorrow then!

Awesome! Are you going to go every day? That's so great that they have a daycare available. Keep up the good work!
