11,476 steps, 1 hour and 46 min. and 12/12 hours yesterday.  I was in a better frame of mind and walking was a lot more enjoyable.  I don't know why I was in such a bad mood Thursday but it seems to have passed.
Barbara, hope you are feeling better.

12,995 steps yesterday. 2 hours 11 mins walking time. This cough is killing me! At least it lets up some after I get up and start moving around. I may have pushed myself too much yesterday will take it easier today.

10,850 steps yesterday. 1 hour 43 mins walking time. Took it kind of easy.

Took 2 Benadryl when I went to bed last night and I actually didn't wake up coughing at 5:30AM, it was 8:30 AM in stead. Not brave enough to take it during the day as I might need to drive out to sell my stand mixer. I do feel a smidge better today.

11,048 steps yesterday. 1 hour 54 mins walking time.

Took 2 Benadryl at bedtime last night but still woke up at 5AM coughing so took 2 more then and was able to get back to sleep. Still some coughing today and still now voice, but feel a little better today.

I did sell my stand mixer yesterday using the Letgo app. The first two potential buyers stood me up twice each. The third one met me in 1/2 hour from when I messaged him it was available. My DD just puts the item in her driveway and tells them to put the money in their mailbox. That won't work for me as my mail box is on the road and I can't see it from the house. I think I am going to put the items at the end of my driveway and put out a plastic container for the money. That way I will know when the item is gone, or not gone.

11,146 steps, 1 hour 59 min. and 12/12 hours yesterday.  I have a dentist appointment today for a cleaning and exam so it may cut in to my walking a bit.
Barbara, I am not that trusting.  I would not expect anyone around here to take an item and then leave money.  Take the item yes but that would be it.

It seems to work well for my DD in Castro Valley, CA. But I'm more like you Wally, I'd rather hand the itemizer and get the cash in my hand. After two false starts with the meet up the third went very smoothly. Plus living alone in an isolated area, I don't really want a bunch of random strangers know where I live. I am more comfortable with the supermarket parking lot meet up.

I actually feel better today! Voice is almost all the way back and not coughing near as much. Maybe because I have been taking Benadryl during they also. Still don't have much appetite, but I can live with that!

Glad you are doing better Barbara.  Hope it gets all better soon.  I got my flu shot yesterday and your malady reminded me to get it done.  I get the flu shot every year and it seems to help.  No flu for many years.

Feeling slightly better again today, didn't wake up coughing early morning. Slept in, I guess I needed it. Not sure if the Benadryl I am taking during the day is helping or masking the symptoms, but I do feel better.

Wally, I haven't gotten a flu shot in well over 15 years and haven't gotten the flu either. I am pretty much a hermit and particularly in Winter I hardly go out at all. I am that person that wipes her shopping cart down at the door with the sanitizer wipes and again on the way out. I have had the pneumonia shot though, the older one and the newer one that came out a few years ago.
