There is never a lack of funny things when you share your world with pets. Case in point? Put Baby on a bed and this happens:

Because of her bad back, she has never jumped up on a bed or couch. Poor little girl can’t even go up the stairs on her own (and we were told by the vet to carry her down). It’s no surprise that she might get a little confused when she finally gets to be on top of a mattress!

What funny things do your pets do?

Remember that goal I had to run barefoot? And I was thinking “oh yeah! this is going to do it for me… it’s the shoes holding me back”! Barefoot or not, I am not a runner. I have to say though, running barefoot is the best that I have ever felt running in my life. Feeling the grass under my feet, and really feeling where to land on my foot, was great! My inner child loved it too! The problem wasn’t my legs or feet though, it was my lungs. Even on small runs I would be out of breath before I really got going.

It’s always been this way. Even as a kid when we had to run the mile in PE class, I could never make it. I would walk it instead, but I walk fast and still beat some of the runners! There is just something about running that kills my heart, lungs, and gets my asthma all excited.

I’m a walker, and happy to be just that. Walking is super healthy for you, and it feels great too. In honor of my walking self, here is a fun spring walking outfit to inspire you to get out and walk too (sources listed under the photo).

Items on this list:

• Lightweight tee in blue from Old Navy. These are truly great tees, I love to wear them.
• Split-leg active capris, also from Old Navy. As it is still spring, capris are a good compromise!
• A nice pullover, again because it is spring and you never know what the weather will be like. Layers are a good thing! Also, it’s another choice from Old Navy (I love that place, they should hire me to be their spokesperson!).
• Cute pair of walking shoes from Skechers. I have a pair that I have worn to the nubs! I would love to replace them with this Ready Set Jet pair!
• ISIS Henna sports bra! Pretty, supportive, and so darn comfy. Seriously the nicest sports bra I have ever had (they sent one as a review, and I have been planning to get a second ever since).
• And, because sometimes in spring walking in nature’s gym isn’t always possible (like yesterday when it was SNOWING), the Live Well 360 bag looks amazing for hauling all your things to the gym.

What is your favorite way to work out?
