Through the snores

Its difficult to concentrate on writing a post while listening to snoring. No the snoring isn't coming from Ken, its coming from Sadie who takes up residence under my computer desk so she can use my foot for a pillow. She snores...not just little snores but big LOUD snores.
I'm certain she has a deviated septum most likely caused by a collision at the dog park or with Max, being Alpha dog is a job she takes seriously and sometimes you have to get slapped in the face, a slap she is willing to take. If you haven't seen that photo of them, its pretty funny.

I’m still flying high from the 5k walk, yesterday my legs were a bit achy but nothing that kept me from spending the morning walking all over the mall and 15 other shops with my sister who was in pursuit of the perfect outfit. As luck would have it, I found a new outfit too and slipped it in with her purchases; she’s a good sister and treated me to a new outfit as a “reward” for walking 5k and for promising to never ask her to join me on a 5k walk.

I was reading Fat Bridesmaid’s post asking everyone to give her some upbeat songs for her new iPod mix and I thought it sounded like a good idea.

This is when I really miss living in the UK, one of our neighbors was a DJ and he would always give us great mixes of the newest music.

One of the things that I really needed during my 5k walk was music. I sang along in my head and made up lyrics but you know that’s just not the same as good heart pumping, high energized music. I had an iPod around here somewhere but I couldn’t find it. So I asked Ken.

Me: have you seen my iPod
Ken: not since I sold it on ebay

So apparently I don’t have an iPod anymore but I remembered that I have an old cell phone from our last phone carrier had built in MP3 player before we switched to the cell phone service that is also like having free therapy, but like so many other things around here, I have no idea where it is. Hopefully when he gets home he’ll know where it is and I can load some songs for a good power walk or even riding the exercise bike.

In the mean time, if you have any favorite high energy songs you’d like to share you can leave them in comment for me or Fat Bridesmaid so I can think about adding them to my mix.
