I know from PM's that some of you look up to me for whatever personal reason since I'm so far along. Well, I'm not as far along as some may think. I live full time, but my anxiety keeps me from doing a lot, like going to the grocery store, or going many places alone. Not that I care what others think, just my anxiety that rears its ugly head from nowhere. Anyway though.
Today I and my dog Ariel (whose my baby, lol) decided to go to the Maryville Greenway. Seemed like a nice day to do something like that. I figured going around 2-ish, wouldn't be too many people there and it could be rather relaxing. So we left, drove the 15 minutes it takes, and soon as we got there, it started piss pouring. So we sat there for a minute, and went and rode around for a few. Found roads I'd never been down there in Maryville. I then noticed it had stopped raining, so I figured we would try the greenway again.
When we got there, sun was shining and the pavement was already drying. So we went and walked close to 2 miles. What the whole point of this post is that while we were walking, I found an inner peace and felt so relaxed down there. There were ducks and birds everywhere making sounds that were almost like music to me.
During the walk back to the car, I ended up stopping and talking to several couples that were out walking their dogs too. Met a lot of really nice people today, when they would get my attention, it always started with ma'am, and one woman even said that she had a lot of respect for someone like me doing this in such a bigot filled redneck Bible thumper area.
That put a huge smile on my face. Such an awesome day I plan on it more often now, and maybe I could lose the last few pounds I need to, lol. Well, here's the pics.
