13,145 steps yesterday.

Wally, I took 5-6 garbage bags of clothing, a box of books and a bag of kitchen gadgets to the thrift shop and came home with 2 hoodies. I think I did OK with way more out than back in. Goodness knows there is still a ton of things to off load here. I really need to get on it so it isn't left to my kids to do...

8552 steps yesterday.  It started to get really windy in the afternoon so I kind of slacked off.
Barbara, yes, I think you did quite well.  It has almost been 2 years since moving here and I am still sorting through things and trying to get rid of the stuff I no longer need.  Trying to be less of a packrat.   ::)

14,682 steps yesterday.

When I moved here from CA 15 years ago I unloaded all the boxes into the garage and only brought into the house the things I "needed". I still have tones of boxes in the garage!! I really need to get on this while I have the energy to do it!

9222 steps yesterday.  I'm just doing what works and not really paying attention to how many steps it is.  Another way to look at it is this total steps is = 3.6 miles or 5.8 KM
Kind of helps to put it into perspective.

I'm the same Wally I don't really worry about the number of steps, I just do what I can.In the evenings I try to get up and walk every time the commercials come on.

4510 steps yesterday.  Like I said I went to the DMV yesterday.  The local office is so crowded you must have an appointment and the soonest was in May.  I decided to drive to the office up by my old house that is not nearly as crowded so it was a 60 mile drive to, a 2 hour period in the office waiting and then doing the paperwork and then an hour drive home, whew !  Any way I gave up over 4 hours in the end and walking kind of took a back seat.

Since you frequently have quite a few steps Barbara, your television channels must show a heap of commercials??  It seems like here in IL we have 10 minutes of program and 20 minutes of commercials.  end of rant........
