Today I walked a half-mile plus a bit more, using my hiking sticks. I set my mind to get to a little creek along the road, and did it! Focusing on what was around me, the uneven surface, not thinking about the discomfort of my left foot. We were watching a storm come in, so I wanted to get that walk in. I had so many things to do in the house, but had to get out for fresh air. Definitely not as far as some of you are going, but a milestone for me in the last year!

@gingerw. Congratulations, Ginger! It's so awesome that you got out there, met your goal to reach the little creek (a joy in itself!), and walked a distance you haven't been able to do for quite a long time ! Way to go! Big congratulations to you and your indomitable spirit!! Woootwoooot!! 😊
You've inspired me. I haven't had an outdoor walk since April. I'm planning to sneak past my care aids and staff real soon and give it a try. Real soon! 🤣
Keep up the great work, Ginger. Laurie ❤

That sounds awesome. I was too wobbly to get beyond the yard Today. Tomorrow I plan to go a little more. And maybe hit the library. I did admire my lovely rainbow colored abdomen today.
