Still doing OK with no bad aches from the steps. Each morning as I get up I wonder if I'm going to find some new aches from the previous day's activities and so far so good! Doing laundry helped yesterday's steps, not much on agenda for today to add too many so I'll just see what the day brings.

Most of the day was spent on small chores inside and outside. Lately I've been on a clean it/clear it out binge. It seems everywhere I look, I see something to go through and let go of.  At least it keeps me busy...

Still in comfortable range. I haven't changed goal in my step counter, maybe I'll get back to the 7,000 range eventually. But for now the steps are what they are!

It was a dark, damp, drizzly day so I just stayed inside. Today looks to be better for some outside activity, though things are pretty wet still for much clean up outside. So crystal lady, my errands, and whatever else comes up is all for me today.

Still feeling OK at this level. Today may be busier with dentist up in town and some shopping there. But the driving takes away walking time....

Despite the time spent driving, I managed to rack up a fair number of steps shopping!! With good weather in forecast today, I am going to do some yard work and enjoy the sun while it is out!

With the nice weather I worked in the yard. Hauled branches and old wet Chewy box shelters to a burn pile. I'm not going to burn, but my friend will pick it up in her truck and they will burn it in their burn pit. They have a lot more land than I do and have a dedicated burn pit that is pretty big. I'm not comfortable burning on my own. Or paying the fire department $200+ to come and burn for me.

Today's weather is more conducive to working inside, laundry being the first thing on the list.

Aside from this light sore throat that has been hanging around for days, no bad effects from the steps so far.

Laundry, quick run out to PO, H&R Block, and drug store for strips is all that I need to do today. I'm sure more things will pop up though.

It was a busy day and I ticked a couple big things off my To Do list so all in all it was a good day.

Today looks like it will have to be a quiet day and that is OK too. It is snowing and blowing outside right now, so I have a good reason to just stay in and do what ever the day brings with no set plans.

Took it really easy, but daily chores do result in steps. Did some minor chores outside, the cold actually felt good breathing. Maybe help slow the flow some. The morning bleed took a long time to completely stop.

I still feel tired this morning so I'm just going to take it really easy again today.

Tomorrow the crystal lady is coming and Tuesday I have a consultation with the Oral Surgeon. I want to be really rested for that appt. so taking it easy until then will be the plan.

Still taking it easy, but doing the things that have to be done do actually add up to a fair amount of steps.

Today may be a bit better with the errands and if the crystal lady does show up. I'll take what I get at this point.

My errands helped the count and a little very light housework. My goal right now is to be as careful as possible that I don't do anything that will be too straining and bring on a nose bleed. So easy does it for a few more days is the plan.

Had to go out on an unexpected errand yesterday. My new deed came in and they spelled my son's name wrong so had to take it back to my lawyer to have it corrected. Nothing around this whole inheritance/will process is going easily!! Ran a couple other errands while out, then came home and did some chores. Feeling better but didn't do anything heavy. Since I have a long drive to the dentist tomorrow and a couple errands up in town, today I will take it really easy.

Feeling better, almost back to 100%. Good thing as I have lots of driving to do today and after dentist, errands too. Then nothing for about a week. So I'm off to get ready to go. At least it will be a nice day to drive for a change.

Holding steady and feeling pretty good so not going to push for any more. Nothing on agenda, but I'm sure chores will find me!
