the mess in my head

Went up to the Oregon zoo today.  Got to see the new Giraffe Riley, he's here from Utah for 2 years while they remodel his exhibit.  He has a heart shaped spot on his butt, it's awesome!


Riley is an amazing giraffe, Carter thought he was pretty cool, he came over to the tree near us to eat and in order to reach the ground where his food is, he had to do the splits kinda...  take a look how funny it looks.

We also got to see the hippos actually doing something!!  It was ball time and the hippos were totally into it, then they lumbered out of the water and went to lay down under their cave area, as if they had done their work and were exhausted LOL

As great as our trip to the zoo was today I am exhausted.  I haven't walked so much since I injured my ankle and since I have been having such good progress with wearing the boot I didn't think it would be too much but boy was I wrong!  I shouldn't complain though, I am going to start training as soon as I am healed (or as soon as I am out of the boot at least). 

I look forward to next week when I will start walking while carter is at school.  I need to figure out how to track distance.  I'm wondering about the Nike/ipod thing...  anyone know about how it works?  My  Ipod touch is out of action right now, so I'm not sure if that would work...  I've tried pedometers before but haven't had much luck with accurate readings.  Of course there is the whole 20 city blocks = a mile thing, but I don't want to think that hard while walking LOL.  SO, I am open to suggestions on a good/accurate way to track my distance.
