Carol, you are a very careful writer on this site and I appreciate your positive attitude toward trying to support and encourage others. People can interpret what we say in many ways, but I can understand your good intent in every word. Some people, myself included, have to be more involved or have social support to include mundane exercise in our lives. I love good water aerobics, but most of it is not suited to my abilities. So, there you go. Keep up the sharing attitude because I get comfort from it. Seated exercise does nothing for my gut and that's my fault. I suppose it helps others, however. My shoulders hurt like crazy if I lift them, but I have decided against more surgery. That's my problem. I love the support from this group. Dorisena
