Why Be Normal?
12/01/09 -- continuing "what I am doing..."
7) had first shake
8) walked dog
9) checked DSLite stepper to see how many steps from wake-up to dog walk (2,323 by 10:30) -- the starting goal is only 3,000 per day. I think it'll be asking me to up my goal soon.
10) started typing "to do" list

It's all mom/wife stuff -- pretty boring.
But, I am looking into making my life more interesting.
I'm going to try the pilates class on base tomorrow (9:30), then come home and walk the dog with my neighbour, then food shop (since I chatted too long and missed my window today), then meet someone for lunch -- alas no lunch for me ;( -- and, of course, work on "to do" list.
So, I am starting to shake up my "stuck in house now that I'm not working rut".
Now, I need to go out to the garage and check the dryer and the freezer. Dryer for laundry to fold and put away and freezer for something to make my DH for dinner.

Not very interesting, though. And thanks for the compliment -- I feel as if I waste so much time.
I just found online (at a better price than I could get in the United States!) these shoes my sister (who is an exercise physiologist and total fitness freak) recommended.
Skechers Shape Ups Action Packed Shoe from Pure Footwear
I ordered a pair -- plain black (figured I could wear them most of the time). We'll see.

It's called crimson I believe, and has a slight sparkle. I haven't really done a lot else today. Just cleaned out the gecko tank and did a wash and then went back to sleep for a while. And ate toast, which I'm not worrying about, it's the one thing that's completely dry so doesn't make me feel sick!
