6023 steps yesterday.  Kept busy going through stuff and boxing.  Kind of different to feel that 6K steps is low.

9,193 steps yesterday.

The inside work has begun.  They laid brown paper over my carpet to protect it, but it sure is noisy when they walk on it! Poor Boo got caught off guard and couldn't get to his safe place under the chair in the living room.  He is stuck under my bed and tat room is really close to where all the work is being done.  I'm trying to get him out, but he is terrified.

8918 steps yesterday.  Almost 9K so I'll call it that.  Lots of back and forth prepping for the move.  Gads, what a lot of stuff !  Too much bending over so now my back is complaining along with my knees.   :(

8253 steps yesterday.  I'm having pretty good luck with my knee recently, hope it stays that way.  Still lots of work to do getting ready for the move Friday.  Sometimes it seems like it will never end.  Then, when it is moved we get to put it all away !   :D

10,987 steps yesterday.  Did a lot of walking trying to get Boo out from under the chair.  Getting up so freaking early gives more time too.

Bathroom walls were textured today, tomorrow prime and paint.  Contractor says may well be done Friday!!! Yay!

10,036 steps yesterday.  Broke the 10K mark for the first time since I broke my hip.   ~hi5~
Lots of back and forth getting stuff ready for the move.  I am tired this morning but I proved to myself that it was possible.  There was a time when I thought I would never see 10K again.

5990 steps yesterday.  Part because I was just busy and part because I was feeling a bit worn out from Wednesday.

6,326 steps yesterday.  I am so exhausted, don't know if today will be very high. Hopefully after a few days I'll be back to normal.

11,960 steps yesterday !  That was just going back and forth moving things from there to here.   :D
I'm tired but happy, although surprised.  I already am over 6000 steps today and it is just past noon.  Well, I guess if you want to get your steps up just move !

Absolutely not moving! In fact, our neighbor stopped by yesterday to admire our new block wall, but was really nosing around to see if we might be moving, because sez he: 'Sometimes people start fixing up when they start thinking about moving!'

I told him we aren't just about to move, and that he'll prob'ly be carrying us out feet first! Besides which, he'll be the first to know if we DO sell out, because he'll be getting the right of first refusal!

He's just the  best neighbor anyone ever had.

8390 steps yesterday.  I was sore from the day before, my back mostly, so I was surprised at getting that much.  It's a pretty good sized house so getting from one room to another can add up to a lot of steps.  Weather here is definitely hotter, temps running around 102-105°  (38-40°C) for the high.  Cooler is on most of the time.  Outside is nice in the early AM and evening but not in the mid afternoon.
Yeah SKB, kind of like old times but with a bit more after effects.  Still, it's nice to know that I can do it.
Shanny, I don't blame you.  Moving is a chore and I hope to not have to do it again.  Still, it is fun in a lot of ways, just a lot of work.
