short & sweet

Went on a walk with my former roomie Janna today! It wasn't a very long one because I was tired from a long day at work but figured it would be good to get out anyway, and it had been a long time since Janna and I walked together. We probably only walked 1/4 of a mile, but boy, it was enough!

Then we capped the night off by watching the Bachelorette with Nicole, eating cheesy puffs from Trader Joe's and looking at photos from Nicole and Timothy's honeymoon to Hawaii.

Not such a bad evening if I do say so myself!

A Stroll Through Campus

Josh and I went on a walk last night and I must say, I have really missed walking regularly. Things have just been so crazy with our wedding, our friends' weddings and then just getting used to being married and living together. But last night we needed to check our mail on the other side of campus and decided to get me back to my challenge and walk there.

I love the Linfield campus. I guess that is evident in the fact that Josh and I got married there this summer, but nevertheless, it's a lovely campus. It is full of gorgeous oak trees, flower beds with vibrant flowers, and beautiful brick buildings with white trim. It is so peaceful this time of the year and the perfect place for a walk. I guess I better enjoy it while it lasts though. Students come back in about a month!

So while I've taken a month and a half long hiatus from posting, that doesn't mean I haven't been walking. I've taken some walks around downtown during my lunch breaks, Josh and I went on some hikes in Bend during our honeymoon and I've kept up with my daily Exercise TV routine.

I'm not sure how easy it will be to reach my challenge goal now that I haven't been as diligent as I should, but I am definitely not giving up!
