I am behind on posting because we have had one heck of a week. But I have been continuing to walk so here is the info on Day 15 (Jan 20). And I am going to post this as if it posted on the correct day...(sneaky blogger trick). Here's the video from Day 15:
Guys, some days are just not even possible to do a dedicated 1 mile walk.
Really.
We had a lice situation that we noticed on our child late last night and we were up until 1 am with the kids dealing with treating him (and everyone else just to be safe). We also stripped all the beds and started the daunting task of washing all the bedding and clothing for all 7 people in this house. The kids went to bed around 1am, we stayed up later doing some more stuff. Then (luckily) the kids had a 2 hour late start for school today, and Wes is still off work this week so we were able to get done a lot more stuff today.
I realized pretty early on that I was not going to have the opportunity to walk a full dedicated walk, so I decided to use my Samsung app today and have it trace my walking distance and steps. I think it totally counts for a day like today to just count the distance I walked throughout the day. It ended up being 3 miles according to my app. Here's the screenshot:
Tomorrow I will continue through the insane piles of laundry, I will take my kids to their High Ability Learners testing, go walk through 2 houses, and try to salvage whatever I can of Wesley's week off that was totally bombarded with lice and crazy weather. AND I will try again to walk for a mile. Somewhere in the midst of all that...
After the Ice storm of last night in Yakima, we had a fun, full day with the kids (Snow Day!!!). So, Wes and I JUST got finished with our walk. Here's a video:
Day 11: We actually walked just under 2 miles, but my phone died at about 1.2 miles. We were on a trail, and when we turned around to walk back mapmyrun said we were at .94 miles. So, since we walked all the way back we must have walked 1.88 miles. Here's the video:
My daughter, husband and two of my sons walked with me. Here is a picture of me and my girl on the walk:
