Gorgeous Days Ahead

The past week has been a whirlwind of happy moments. A surprise homecooked Valentine's Day dinner cooked yes, by MY husband...an enormous & delicious edible arrangement delivery for my birthday...a birthday "happy hour" with my bff, a 76 degrees & sunny day of shopping with my aunt...mimosas with my favorite ladies followed by a reunion with our good friend (who moved to Maryland last September) for her bridal shower...and not to mention the absolutely incredible early Spring weather we've had. I have "powerwalked" almost every day for a week! Walking has always been my favorite form of exercise...since I am not a runner, and have no aspirations to be, walking is perfect and not to mention a "lifelong" way to exercise. (Minus the joint problems chronic runners are sure to face later in life!) My sweet Grandma has always walked every day, and I am positive that is part of the reason she is still alive and well at almost 88 years of age. I learned how to use a big fancy stroller this week also, which I hate to admit, but gave me HUGE baby fever! I took the little girl I nanny out for walks and she loved it! And I must admit it really was a great workout...my butt/legs were SO sore the next couple days! It's a good thing, because I need to get to working on my bathing suit body :-)  So, I am looking forward to more and more days outside as the weather gets even better. And better weather means the beacccchhhhh!!!! I CANT WAIT!!!
