some goals

I think instead of hiring a dog walker (need to save money), I'm going to set a goal of taking Audrey on a long walk each morning before work. This means I'll have to wake up early though, which is the major kink in my goal. However, its the coolest time of the day and its quiet out. It could be a nice way to start the morning. I got in only a 15 minute walk with her this morning. Tomorrow I'm shooting for half an hour, and want to build up to 45 minutes. I may check out her ability to jog with me. I know she has a ton of energy, but I'm not sure she could run in a straight line next to me. Then when I get home, I'll only have to take her on a smaller walk because she got exercise in the morning before being cooped up. We'll see how it all works out.
