Dragged my exhausted butt out the door for a spin around the block. Four blocks total, or one complete city block, take your pick.

After a dinner of butter chicken and naan, you’d think I’d want to climb a few hills, cross a few rivers, and run with a pack on my back to wear off the calories. Instead, I fell asleep on the chair. Michael, my motivator, got me at least to do the 12 block walk in…

Yawn

18 + bonus 2 block walk. Had a burst of energy you see.

Downtown and in Old Strathcona

Wandered around downtown whilst waiting to see Julia/Julie. A great film. That Meryl Streep is amazing as Julia Child. We hit the Italian Centre Shop to load up on all things Italian.

Farmer’s Market & Weenie Roast at My Cousin’s

Strolled over to the Farmer’s Market yesterday, and that was the extent of my walking. Unless you count vacuuming the apartment… and walking from the fire pit to the loo at my cousins. It was a great evening – Michael and my cousins child setting off a rocket with baking soda and vinegar as the…

Short "Fleeting" Walk

On account of preparing for a colonoscopy, and having the need of a loo within five paces, I am counting my walk to bus, and the extra six blocks I added by getting off two stops early on my commute home, as my walk for the day.

Boring Block

12 block walk through the ‘hood. Can hear Big and Rich and the happy crowd at Telus Field.

Finished with F’s

Now that Fringe is over, I have to get a more creative about my walk stories. I had an extra two block walk this morning on my way to work. Got to the bus stop. Saw the bus. Put hand into the pocket with the bus pass… no bus pass! So home I went, muttering…
