Glad to hear that Wally!  I usually try to get my hourly steps too somedays it happens, some days not. Seems I often have a single hour or two that are close to or over 1000 steps and then one around it with zero. It is what it is...

6,153 steps yesterday.

The Chewy order arrived yesterday, fastest delivery yet! Tracking showed shipped 11-11 and delivered 11-12 from Reno, NV. Unpacked three large boxes with 22# and 30# bags of dry cat food and 3 cases of wet food. Some went into garage and some inside to be rotated into garage as needed.  The some more organizing in my office and even a bit of raking leaves outside too. It all added up.

4693 steps yesterday.  Yeah, I used to be able to get 1000-2000 steps at a time but now 250 is about all I can do at one time so the 250 each hour is the goal I have now. It gets me out of my chair and moving so I think it does me some good. I start at 6:oo AM and go for 12 hours from that.

I count the whole day. I am up by 6:30AM every day and am in bed by 11:15 PM. Almost like clockwork. I still try for the 250 each hour, just to be sure I get up often.

6,071 steps yesterday.

Yesterday was mostly working in the office going through everything and getting a sense of what is left.  Somethings I had forgotten precise details about so had to do some research. Rest if the day was little chores in the house.

Tomorrow is grocery shopping day and I plan to walk all the aisles just for the steps!

I got about 4500 steps using the Public Transport, and add to that around 1500-2000 for steps in the house.

7,278 steps yesterday.

Kind of surprised myself! Don't often hit my "goal" of 7,000 any more. I made it a point to get up out of the recliner more in the evening. Guess that is where the difference came from.

I'll take it!   ~ cat ~

7,471 steps yesterday.

Walking all the aisles did make a difference. Both in steps and my pocketbook! ;)

Nothing much to do today, will see if I can keep up the pace...as long as nothing starts to hurt I'm game to try.

8,139 steps yesterday.

Some was working in the office sorting crystals, but most was just making myself get up and walk as much as possible. Using the commercials on TV which is mostly background noise as a cue. So far not feeling anything stressed though right knee is beginning to sound off so will tread carefully. Don't want to push my luck!
