As I headed back to the elementary school a 2nd time this morning (because someone forgot the candy corn he needed to bring in for today) I noticed a few things and started making a bulleted list to blog in my head:

1) The cold front seems to have finally shown up! It’s a lovely 60 degrees outside right now, and I can only hope it stays with us for a few more days. We’re going to some Halloween events this weekend, and it would be SO nice for the kids to not sweat inside their costumes.

2) Despite thinking I was over my 3-Day injuries, I’m feeling a new little twinge in my left thigh that wasn’t there yesterday. It figures…as soon as I let my guard down, I notice a new ache and pain! I was just talking with my sister last night when she was over about recovery this year, and how I felt better so much quicker, but I felt worse during the walk. She’s in agreement with me that the walking was much tougher this year, but the recovery process was relatively quick. I guess I spoke too soon.

3) Oh hey - I went to bed at 9:30 last night! I was actually IN bed at 8:30 reading, and watching a little TV, and I told myself lights off at 9:30 and went right to bed. That never happens. I’m still so tired!

4) I watched the end of that old movie, Baby Boom, with Diane Keaton in bed last night. I remember seeing it in the movies with my mother once upon a time. I love the end when her character goes into the big board meeting - she looks like a linebacker in her 1987 shoulder pads. If shoulder pads ever come back, I will not be jumping onto that trend.

    There was nothing “lovely” about the 60s this morning! It was FREEZING! I want my warm mornings back!

    Lucky you - in bed by 8:30. We were just leaving the house to go watch baseball at that time. I didn’t make it to bed until around midnight.

    But thumbs up on point 3 - no way will I be in shoulder pads anytime soon! :-)

    I like this cooler weather. It’s a nice respite.

    Where’s my candy corn?

    Sorry, but 1987 does not qualify for “that old movie” status. 1947, 1957 maybe. ‘87? That’s yesterday! :-)

    I’m with you on the whole “aches and pains” thing.
    I’m only 37 but I feel 90.

    We are in the 60’s and my blood is thin as well. Have fun on your walk, and good luck. I hope the weather is nice. Taking the kids and beginning to show them how to do something so meaningful so young will be a wonderful experience for them. Good job as a parent…
