I got out of bed and can walk today!

After all the walking I did yesterday, I though my arms and legs would be really sore today.  I joked yesterday about maybe not being able to get out of bed.  I am a little sore but not too bad.  I hope I don't sound irreverent and ungrateful about being able to get out of bed and walk. I am so grateful to God to be able to do those things.   There are people for whom that is not possible.

OK so I did not exactly take it easy today.  Got on the bus to go to one store, then walked to the next bus stop.  There was no room for me and my walker on the bus!  I didn't see another one coming so I started walking.  A bus passed me less than a minute later.  Grrrr So I walked all the way to the mall.  (I mapped it again, 1 km+ of walking).

Gerry and I should go out on a date tonight and not waste this nice haircut I got.  I don't know about you, but my hair almost never looks as good as the day it gets cut!

I went out to the mall again tonight to get Trina's March bus pass.  I forgot to get it for her to have for today.  Before the walker, it would be a big deal to have to go out to the mall again.  As it was, I enjoyed the walking and the (cold) fresh air.


What I have eaten today:
Breakfast
1 smoothie with fruit yogurt and milk.

Lunch
More of that amazing salad from Druxy's.  I think I topped the lettuce with, like, 10 different veggies.  Dressing on the side.

Dinner
1 sausage, mashed potatoes, corn

PLUS
3 cups of coffee with flavoured creamer

1 chocolate bar.  (Actually maybe you could call it 2. It was 1 pkg with 2 small chocolate bars in it.  And no, it wasn't even dark chocolate that could be called good for me.  It was Coffee Crisp.  Yummy!  I wish I had eaten one and then saved the other one for, like, now)

At least 2 sets, 10 reps each leg of hip extensions
1-7:43 am

Toodles!
