The Place I Wish I was From

Today's topic is the place you wish you were from. I can't really say that I would change where I am from. I was born in the sunshine state, Florida. My dad was in the navy and stationed in Jacksonville. Both my sister and I were born there and lived there till I was just shy of 4. I have no memory what-so-ever of that time, but wish I did. I think that might be the only thing I would change. I constantly tell people when they note that I am "always cold" that I am from the sunshine state and have sunshine in my blood and can't ever get used to this cold! lol. (Not that Oregon is all that cold, but you know what I mean) So, I guess you know a bit more about me, even though I wouldn't change where I was born. I believe that changing where you are from would change the person you have become, and that just isn't worth it to me. =)

I had a most excellent fitness day today. Got in the last 30 minute parent-tot swim class that I get to have for awhile (I will be doing a work study for school starting next week, bummer!) Then I went for a jog with my dad! Talk about strange. I love my dad and all, but it was the last thing I expected him to ask when he asked what I was doing to lose weight. When I told him mostly jogging, he asked to go with me! Wow. Talk about blown away. I expressed my surprise to my mom who told me I should take it as a form of flattery. He sees that I am losing weight and that what I am doing is working, and wants to "be like me" Wow. This whole lifestyle thing is changing everything!

Even nutrition wise it wasn't a horrible day. I was right at my range, though could have had more veggies and a bit more water, it wasn't horrible. I did get over to the Farmer's market and got a few to hopefully tide me over to next week. I have to figure something out to do after this season is over. I'm gonna miss my 'farm fresh veggies!'
