Keep on Moving Thread: October 2018

[Virginia]

Sunshine, that is really a great morning. Walking up and down stairs in addition to grocery shopping after swim is really good.

[Sunshine]

Def a better day!

[Sunshine]

Today I swam 31 minutes, 1/2 mile plus 53 Yards. Then I stood for long enough to windex my windshield and climbed a second flight of stairs. Stairs, I will not miss after moving day!

[Sunshine]

Today I swam a half mile in 31 minutes. So far, so good

[Virginia]

Today I went to K-Mart walked inside and picked up drugs, went to Lowe's Foods and grocery shopped, put groceries in car and walked next door to Walgreens and got two items, came home put up groceries and had a cup of yogurt, went to hair dresser for color and cut and blow dry, went to service station and filled car with gas. I think I drove less than 10 miles to do all this. Almost everything is convenient for me.

[Sunshine]

That is great Virginia! Perhaps you have healed a smidgen?

That’s really great to hear Virginia! No Panera or Wholefoods?

You do WAY more than I do, but I have the same arrangement. My bank, and CVS, and the grocery store are all in the same 1 block area. The bank and CVS are drive-thru, and the grocery store, I only have to walk from the car to the entrance, and I use one of the electric carts to shop. A nice setup.

[Virginia]

I wanted to go to Panera but I already had food here and decided that I needed to discipline myself and eat what I already have. I am still hurting, but hair dresser was very careful around hair line. I was so GLAD to get it done. I can now open my front door without feeling embarrassed. Next hurdle is when can I read a book??? I am having a fit to read, but glasses hurt me and even if they did not I doubt that I could concentrate with what is going on in my face.

Howie, you do have a good set up like I do. I did a little more walking today just because I wanted to prove that I could.

You folks are so impressive that you should get fitness awards!

Step counts according to my pedometer:

10/3 - 1922 steps
10/4 - 1203 "
10/5 - 1268 "
10/6 - 1336 "
10/7 - 782 "
10/8 - 1403 "
10/9 - 1137 "

[Virginia]

Agate, talk about impressive just look at what you are doing. You have one day where you must have gone shopping. That is great!

[Howie]

Agate, the 3rd put a little extra spring in your step. It must have been payday for you too.

[agate]

There's nothing like incoming income to energize a person.

[Virginia]

So, Agate that is where you are spending a lot of your time. You are working. Good for you. I hope you get some things that you really have had your heart set on.

[Sunshine]

Good job all around!

Today I swam 32 minutes, 1/2 mile. Did 5 flights of stairs over the day, boxed up several drawers for the move readying. Cooked dinner. Washed dishes. Empty dishwasher. Feeling a bit stiffened so I think I will rest awhile. My most active day in a long time.
