Walking Through the Year: Miles Walked in 2012

Evergreen garland draped over the top of a china cabinet.  Love this idea!

I love the way the shutter is turned on its side, and lays on the mantel as a backdrop 

for Christmas decorations!

I took this picture because I LOVE the way the sunlight shows the green glass off.

I am drawn to painted pieces, and loved this white china cabinet.

IF ONLY my husband would let me paint some of our pieces! 

He thinks it's a travesty!

This many cubby-holed piece had me in love.

I love the stool collection underneath it as well.

I cannot start another collection, but I enjoy looking!

Jamie bought Audrey some of this set for 

her first REAL tea set, beautiful and matches her 

bedroom colors.

Now that I am back home, 

and I hung my new calendar...

I finally got my miles for 2012 added up.

I record them on my wall calendar, daily.

I do this now each year as a motivation, 

logging miles each time I walk.

I then total each month.

I keep a running total.

Then, at year's end, I look at my grand total.

Then, I try to compare something geographical 

to the number of miles walked.

This year's grand total was 488.

The Mississippi River is about 500 miles long.

This method, for me, has worked as a great motivator, 

and that is why I am sharing it with you!

HAVE A GREAT DAY!
