I Walked Outside!

  I managed to get in four rounds of activity today of more than an hour each. One of those included an attempt to take a walk outside. It was beautiful!

Well, I didn't get very far. Maybe a couple of hundred feet before I was whipped and had to turn around. Baby steps.

We got something between 20 and 25 inches of snow here this week. This is the pile that Doug pushed up at the end of the driveway with his plow.

I thought I'd bring in the mail from the last few days but discovered that the road plow has hit the post. I dug around until I was too tired, but I haven't even found where the box got knocked to yet. What fun.

No ice packs at all last night! The rash is almost gone. I did a little computer work today. I puttered around with various other tasks as I said. I walked 15 minutes inside. I ate a salad for dinner instead of something soft. My motivation is now ahead of my energy. But, my eye is very sore. I don't dare strain it too much. Overall, I'm encouraged.

See More Up Than Down

Glad to hear you are headed in the right direction. Too bad about the mailbox. Hopefully it wasn't full of important pieces of mail.
