I've been walking all over the city the past few weeks. Whenever I find myself on a particularly long walk, I think that I should break out my old pedometer to keep track of the mileage. Of course, I never think to get it when I'm leaving the apartment. Perhaps that is because I'm trying to remember the stroller, the diaper bag, the purse, a bottle for the baby (just in case), sunglasses, the rain shield for the stroller, at least one umbrella, a bottle of water, some snacks, at least one binky, the camera, my phone, and the two children. It's a wonder I ever make it out anywhere. As soon as I come up with a system for remembering the pedometer, I'm going to start tracking my mileage as I'm quite sure that it is adding up very quickly. In fact, I should be much skinnier.

walkin' all over town

I used my pedometer on laundry day once, putting it on AFTER I had walked the kids to school mind you, and came up with 8800 steps by nearly bedtime -- with no "exercise" to include that day!
You inspired me to pull out my pedometer today. I'm about to go to bed with 12089 steps. Not too shabby for someone who takes her Volkswagen instead of pushing a stroller through the city.
