Oh guess what it's raining!

Every morning, I go for a walk. I'm hideously out of shape, so I started out with 15-minute walks, and have been adding 5 minutes every week. I'm up to 40 minutes now, and it's getting to be a habit. I go out around 6 am, so there's no one around watching me drag my sorry ass around (I walk really slowly. I mean, I'm walking as fast as I can, but I have short legs for such a tall person, and generally I can't keep up with fast-walkers). Plus it's cool listening to the birds and looking at peoples' flowers without them thinking I'm a crazy lady on the street in front of their house. I usually take with me my watch, my DS thing to measure my activity level, and the cellphone, in case mentalists jump out at me. If a mentalist ever jumps out at me, I can call the mentalist wrangler hotline to come and take him away.

The cellphone also has a camera on it, so I take some photos sometimes. This is from about 6:15 this morning:


and now we're received about 45 mm of rain, with another 10-20 to come before tomorrow morning.
... as my husband says "Well, at least it's not snow."
