Day ~*31*~

Sweet! Day 3 complete of getting up at 4:45am and hiking Beezley!  Today my phone told me we did 1.03 miles in 39min12sec and took 5 breaks!  Yesterday was 1mile even at 39min39sec with 7 breaks :D  Making some progress! This morning Christina joined us and I was very proud of how well she kept up!  She felt like she was being slow but on Monday we took 9 breaks so I think she did amazing!  Slight drop on the scale this morning. 160.1.  I'll take it. better then a gain!  Better then staying the same! And i did some bad nighttime snacking after a late night phone call from my Mom and Aunt Pam back in Missouri so I'm pleased with a tiny loss :)  Onto another full day and will check in tomorrow after our morning hike!

My photo today is the back page of a letter my Great Grandma Velma wrote me 14years ago.  I was digging looking for a poem while on the phone with my Mom last night and found this.  I thought it was fitting to use as my picture a day as today is Grandma's viewing, and tomorrow is her funeral.  What I find so neat about this letter is it tells me about some friends of hers that she got to see celebrate their 75th wedding anniversary. The couple is almost 100yrs old. The wife's name was Velma and Grandma's Mom loved her and named my Grandma, Velma after her.  Such a neat piece of history that I found last night.
