Return to Black Mountain

I light of Ava being in school I'm going to try and be more aggressive with getting into shape. Especially with cold weather coming around the corner. I haven't made time or maybe I've been lazy to take time to work out the last few months. That's going to change! I had this revelation when I stepped on the scale a couple of weeks ago. I felt like Garfield the cat (on the scale) looking down at the climbing numbers and wanted to shout "LIAR!"
I'm going to challenge myself and re-evaluate my wellness program. I would be more motivated if someone joined me. It's hard to get people's schedules in sync sometimes. It's hard too because usually I have to wing it on a day-by-day basis; especially when I'm busy with massage appointments. I had to remind myself that little steps add up. If I have a window of opportunity, I need to just do it! Haha. My wellness routine right now includes bike riding, walking, hiking, pilates, and yoga. Zeek also gives me an excuse to get out and move; he looks up at me with his stare ~ like he's asking "when are we going for a walk?"
Tuesday is the more consistant day. I take the preschoolers over to EskDale and then I can go for a walk with Zeek around the hills. Here are a few photos I took with my Itouch on Black Mountain.





Hiking up there again brought a flood of childhood memories. We spent so much time here when we were kids.................


 
Surely you can tell by now that I like to tweak my photos.........
 


A little bird was unaware of our presence and came in for a landing. Then it flew off quickly.





Wish me luck with taking the step to taking more steps! 
:)

Now, if only I could get a massage  ;)
