Lost in my own neighborhood

Yesterday night my cousins and I decided to go to the high school and walk/run the track. We decided this at about 7:00.

First off my one cousin felt like she wasn't invited. Even though we looked at her and said specifically do you have any running shoes so you could go with us? Then she cried (literally) that we didn't tell her in advance so she could bring shoes with her. I'm sorry but we are spontaneous people and it was a nice night so we decided to go walking. Next time we'll plan our spontaneity in advance and let you know!!! We told her just to wear some of grandma's shoes and she fought us about that saying her size 8 feet wouldn't fit into my Grandma's shoes. I was like either you wear the shoes and come or you don't and don't come!

Finally at 9:00 everyone was ready to go. I decided it would be a fun to walk to the track, I've done it before and it wasn't that far. Well I didn't put into account that we had left so late. We didn't even get to the track until 9:30! To get to the track from my house we have to walk through the neighborhood, through a very large field, past the Olympic Oval, around the Family Fitness Center, cross the street and arrive at the track. I felt pretty bad for making them walk all that way especially since we didn't bring a cell phone or anything to call my husband to come pick us up if we were too tired to walk home. We walked our mile around the track and made the uphill trek back home.

We got into my neighborhood and I was too busy talking to notice the street signs and totally missed my street. We ended up walking two streets past where I live. The street that I live in is fairly new so all the houses look the exact same. Then you come to mine and it looks different. So when we turned onto the street that I thought was mine, I noticed a lot of houses that look like my house. Then I realized I was on the wrong street. So for the next 10 minute walk home I just got crap about not knowing how to get to my own house.

So that was our walk around the track that ended up taking us over an hour! But it was fun, but next time I think we'll drive.
