Whoa, a whole new month flew on by us.
I walked 3 miles today. 2 flat then 1/2 up hill and 1/2 back down the hill. Sheesh! Rabbit Hollow Road is getting me in shape. I have a bunch more errands to get to today, so its going to be one of those days, but at least I have a fruity shake, (with spinach) in hand and I have covered it in fresh strawberry and banana so, I dont even taste it or that carrot. I will eat a small dinner tonight and lets see if my tummy is ready for food.

Walked 30 min this morning... today's the start of my work week.
My anxiety is through the roof right now dealing with hornets in my sanctuary of an apartment. The exterminator was here today, so hoping he got their nest and they're gone for good. I don't know if I'll be able to walk tonight. We have severe thunderstorm watches on.... and that could last into the night. If so I'm not walking in that, but may do Wii game tonight instead. Thanks for starting a new thread Dej!

I'm hanging in there, Dej thanks for asking. I did my stretches and exercises, before arising and it looks like a good day.

Went to spin class last night. 45 minutes of intervals. We had two newbies join us...hopefully they will stick with it and become regulars. Planning to go again tonight unless my wife needs help with her work.

I'm probably going to go to the gym in a little while to walk and see if I can get my muscles in my legs to stretch themselves out. Bought a new book for my Kindle this morning (Cowboys & Aliens) and so far the book is interesting, so I think I can get some good walking out of that reading material.
Last night I felt like crap. Felt sick, and was in Spasticity Purgatory (not quite Spasticity Hell) Everything felt stiff and I just felt yucky. Ended up taking half a valium to see if that would help the stiffness. I dont take anything regularly for the spasticity...like to naturally stretch my muscles by walking or stretching instead. Last night I just felt kind of horrible so I got the valium out. Seems like every few months I'll have a couple of days of spasticity that just beats the crap out of me. That's when I'll either try baclofen or valium to try to break the stiffness. Baclofen hasnt been helping, but the valium has been pretty good. I'm going to try for a half hour or more tonight for treadmilling. Mostly because I've got a decent book to read and I'm hoping I'll get lost in the book while walking. I better go before I change my mind and just sit here and read my book instead. (I really wanna be lazy today!)

just got back from the gym. I made it 20 minutes (.40 of a mile). I think there was something wrong with the a/c in the gym because after about 15 minutes I was starting to sweat, which I dont normally do. Usually when I'm at the gym, I dont do anything strenuous enough to involve serious sweating...even if I'm on the treadmill for a half hour.
Got home and now I have a stomachache and feel kinda yucky. Felt yucky yesterday, but different than this. This feels more like I got overheated. At least the stiffness in my legs feels better from the walking. Just wish that 20 minutes of walking didnt knock me out like this. Think I'm gonna go fill up a bottle of water and hydrate.

Walked yesterday and today 30 min in the morning.
Last night we had thunderstorms during the evening, so no after dinner walk. Then I was busy doing work around here, so I did 'chores' (more physical though - was fixing my air conditioner and that involved leaning out a window and removing debris from the unit - not fun but the hornets are gone!). I want to walk tonight/tomorrow to make up for the missed walk yesterday, but wouldn't you know it? They are calling for more thunderstorms today and more rain. We'll see... my head's a wildfire of pain this morning from the weather. Soon time to work too.

2 miles this morn, then I stared down the throat of Rabbit hollow. I have a whole lot of quit in me today, but I started the climb anyway. I made about 1/3 of a mile, and came back down. just not in the mood for it. So, I am home, juiced, and showered. Ready to start my day.

Did my 5km approx tonight, managed to get out and back before the rain. Was chillier out for a summer night (damp and humid air, but cool) yet I was sweating by the time I got home (fast walking) and just barely beat the next round of rain.
Tomorrow evening is supposed to be dry to walk. Let's hope. I want to make up for Tuesday's lack of a walk.
