Walkabout

Following my doctor's advice, I've been getting out to walk when I can. I figure I'll start keeping track of my meandering here.

Today, I walked down to the Branham Post Office to mail an EDD form, because the carrier didn't take it from the box, and San Jose doesn't seem to believe in curbside boxes.

Round trip distance: roughly 2 miles

Time: I'd say about 45 minutes to an hour. I stopped to chat with a cabbie, and didn't wear my watch.

The weather is in the mid-70s, with 65% humidity. Chance of T-storms, and I can see some thunderheads off in the far distance. What I need to do is get out earlier, and put off the morning netting until I've gotten my exercise. I also need a water bottle like [livejournal.com profile] kshandra has.

Other than sweating like a pig, I feel good. My feet are a little sore, but the lungs are fine, and my lower back is pain free.

What I need is one of those digital pedometers like my mom has.

I struck floor!

Finally dug out the bedroom. We have a floor, Kiri has a lot of shoes, and as soon as whoever has been hogging the machines all day is done, almost all the laundry will be taken care of.
