P….I….T….A….

I should be leery of what I ask for…, originally uploaded by Suddenly Single.

I spent my lunch break looking up the next trail on our list of trails. It feels good to finally have some focus. I was flip flopping around on what I wanted to do in this body that is getting stronger.
It’s hiking.
Dan had to go get new shoes because his everyday shoes just weren’t cutting it. I bought my hiking shoes at the beginning of the year when I got my CamelBak. I finally understand all those granola eating, tree hugging, hiking people and why they wear clothes that look like they just got off a trail. This shit is comfortable!
These shoes…I just want to cuddle up with them and snuggle. The pants, I could sleep in them. I am working on getting me a shirt that I love too.

For those of you that have been keeping track over the years, Dan is the first ex-husband. He bugs me to death and there are times when I want to punch him right in the throat…but he is the guy that answers the phone at 6am on Saturdays, gets excited when I send him a new trail map and pushes me to do more at the gym. So as much as I want to push him off those trails into the ravine below..he’s also the guy that would make sure I don’t get bit by a snake or take on too much and get lost. (Directionally Challenged as I am)

This weekend is a 12 mile hike. I researched it and realized that my car won’t make it back to the trailhead. I whined and complained and then I remembered something…he has a truck.

Here’s to hoping he answers the phone at 6am on Saturday!! :)
