I need to figure out a Mother's Day present, too.

Also, I've been inspired by all the walking you do so I waked home from the movies in downtown Evanston. Yet I've still only walked 3.9 miles today.

I'll just echo what Steph said. Only?! That's pretty great! I've only got about 4.5 miles in so far today myself because of travel and rain. Also, I support slowly increasing your distance to learn your limits and not injure yourself.

I think I average 3.5 miles of walking on workdays just taking the train to work, so I'm gonna shoot for 5 or 6 miles a day now.

I've only got about 4.5 miles in so far today myself because of travel and rain.

I would repeat myself and say " 'Only,' she said," but now I know how many miles you walk a day, so that really IS "only".

I did no walking today, because good lord that blister on my right foot is huge and painful. It's on the ball of my foot right below my big toe, so pretty much the worst place possible. Owie.

Yeah, I'd be driving to work with a blister like that.

We spent most of the day painting benches at Franny's school, and then I spent the rest of the afternoon nudging Isaac through his homework. Frances, miraculously, finished her on her own. Ugh. Why do weekends feel like so much work?

When customer came in saying "I've got to finish this tonight, and my program doesn't work!", I used to care. I don't anymore.

Suzi, we have (about half of) our DVD collection in 16 of these boxes. They're very compact and keep things alphabetized.

I finally bought a new fitbit yesterday, and have already fallen down the tracking rabbit hole, so I know I walked 3.33 miles so far today. My PF is already laughing at me, as is my knee, but I still feel good.

I haven't been on a walk for a few weeks, but my god, I have been exercising! And I've made it back to yoga classes, and plan on turning part of the finished basement into a little exercise area, with my weights and my yoga mat, Dan's weights -- I can take my laptop down there and I have access to videos for strength and yoga.

And I am PSYCHED about starting up walk/jogging again. Our new hood is a GORGEOUS tree-lined street and it's mostly flat, but with some gentle hills.

OMG, guys, I love our new house and our new hood SO SO MUCH!!

Yay, Strix! So glad you are in the new place and happy. Pretty great feeling.

Jessica, I had bumped into those and was hesitant, so good to have a recommendation. We had filled 4 of the skinny Ikea DVD shelves which hold about 100 each. A fair chunk are boxed sets. But putting the rest in those boxes might work.

I started putting up some pictures/art before realizing that most of my picture hooks are still at the apartment.
