Hello,
Sorry to hear about the latest seizure and glad you were able to get up by yourself. Was wondering if you wear some kind of alert system or have a cell phone on you at all times. Health concerns and aging are the reason a lot of people have roommates but don’t know if you are open to that.
Anyway, you will be back to walking soon. Weather here in Florida has generally been ideal walking weather so it’s not necessary to rush out the door so early to beat the heat. High 50s or low to mid 60s most mornings which is perfect and energizing with low humidity. We have up and down swings...unseasonably warm and humid for a few days then typical cool days so it’s hard to acclimate. My face did feel frozen one day a couple of weeks ago when it was about 49 degrees .....no one else was out except dog walkers and I cut it short. Never really minded the cold but hate the wind and there is always a breeze in my area living so close to the water. There is no excuse today so off I go!
Stay safe
Florida Mary

Hi,
@jakedduck1
I did something fun this week for walking! I splurged at the running Wild shop and purchased running pants and a jacket for winter walking. I also purchased some comfy klogs. I spent too much money, but investing in the right garb for winter walking was my goal. I walk about 1.5 miles to and fro to the grocery store mostly, in tights! I'm an old lady, and I wonder if those young people out there are laughing at a 50 yr old in running tights! Waaa ha ha ha ha on them, I enjoy a walk to the grocery in winter.
My community is famous for the Bix 7 road race. So, I have my Bix 7 winter training pants now, a Christmas gift to myself this year.
