Wow! Deck chairs! My hubby's sick the last two weeks, so our daily walk has been set aside. I never think of walking alone. But, perhaps I should walk anyway for the sheer enjoyment of being outside, seeing the birds (Canada geese headed east last night, I think they're confused!). Perseverance! Your entries always make me smile.Beth Camphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12682622561621269515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-179072149199219335.post-11628840840453860242012-08-21T23:47:59.201-04:002012-08-21T23:47:59.201-04:00Keep it up.

I've been...Excellent! I'm glad for you. :)<br /><br />I've been doing something similar.. I don't know how long the route is but it takes me a half hour to walk it (sans camera.. that can add hours) and I do it twice a day. The first few weeks.. nothing. Then it just started to work. It used to be so easy to lose weight.. sigh!<br /><br />Keep on enjoying.Hilaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12787493532006658679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-179072149199219335.post-43481049308654803642012-08-19T18:11:42.147-04:002012-08-19T18:11:42.147-04:00esbboston, not only with the food . . . but the wo...esbboston, not only with the food . . . but the workout room and nothing else to do!<br /><br />Anon, good for you! I do wonder if I'll keep this up when it's dark before work and dark after work...<br /><br />DJan, I feel better, yes. Mostly CALMER. Must be the oxygen, huh? Whatever it is, I'll take it. And so will the people around me all day!<br /><br />Joanne, it isn't enough to kill me, if that's what you mean by "not too tough." It is far easier now than it was at the beginning, and that in itself, gives me hope that I will achieve three miles like Anon up there.<br /><br />Linda, just keep in mind that it's like hitting yourself in the head with a hammer. It feels so good when it's over.<br /><br />Nana, getting up and doing it beats sitting thinking about how you SHOULD do it.<br /><br />glp's typist, I have seen enough of your appendages in your photos (when you think you're hiding yourself) to know that you're fit enough. I might have an edge, dragging around, as I am, a whole second person. Not to mention I can't walk out the door without going up or down a hill.Junehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11710135137635433217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-179072149199219335.post-58165163073740994472012-08-19T16:37:10.300-04:002012-08-19T16:37:10.300-04:00Bah!
