Daily Photo: Crosswalk to Nowhere

Anyone who has gone for a run with a jog stroller can tell you the frustration of busy roads with no sidewalks. This is what I faced today while trying to run to the grocery store with an overtired-so-oh-thank-goodness-now-sleeping toddler. Had to push the stroller through the grass, bumping and jostling as I went, at times lifting the back or front to keep my passenger from waking up.

How desperate am I for exercise that I would choose THIS to do? VERY. My non-napping toddler is going through the adorable but schedule-busting "mommy mommy carry me carry carry carry!" stage, making exercising at home virtually impossible.
