Today I was going to try a new class at the gym but my balance was not so good. So I did 20 minutes on the eliptical instead. I also did my grocery shopping which is a workout in itself some days!

Walked yesterday, a big walk... cooler weather but felt good to be out there. Today worked, and just finished cleaning the kitchen including gettign down on hands and knees (pillow under knees) to scrub tile floor. So that was a good amount as I hurt after doing the floor. I did go to PT between work and cleaning.

hugsss all, keep wiggling.. hugss,sarah

Walked 3 dogs for about 15 min., then went to the gym. Walked for 15 min on the track, then did 20 min on weight machines. In the afternoon, did about 40 min of gardening, pulling plants & flowers out.

Have you ever tried getting a steam cleaning mop for the floor? I like mine. It's great because you don't have to get down on hands and knees.

I loved my Steam mop for a bit, and then...it started leaving streaks! upset me, so I sold it the the housekeeper. I have a spin mop that does a good job, but nothing beats that hands and knees clean that you get from getting up close and personal with the floor. I mopped mine yesterday as I got home to find the housekeeper didnt show up. She called twice and said "I have a tiny cold, should I come?" UGH! this girl will show up with a feverish toddler, but wont show up with the sniffles on a day I wont even be home?? I swear im gonna fire her.

Started on my walk this morn. Made about a mile, and simply couldnt finish. I short cutted back thru the woods and came home. My back is screaming! my legs are burning! I am really good at pushing past the pain, but yesterday I cleaned my own house because silly girl didnt come. I vacuumed, mopped, dusted, scrubbed tubs, and so forth. I am really paying for it today, AND its grocery shopping day. I think I will use the scooter in the store.

Walked quite a lot today and yesterday. Making more soup today. We've got some wet weather moving in later this week (maybe sooner than later.. it's getting gray and cooler out now) so I purchased the annual window plastic for a project when it's too crummy to be out walking much.

Yes the cold weather's coming. Booo!

Met with my personal trainer today and she gave me a whole bunch of new exercises including balance exercises. When I was done I felt like I was beat up and spent the rest of the afternoon relaxing. I am so looking forward to going tomorrow for another workout though.

Took an abbreviated walk today of 1 mile. it was slow, choppy, and im off balance, so I decided to just come home. DH was happy I asked, because we were poking along, and he was worried I was going to fall. Such is the MS life I suppose.

Its chiropractor day and that will help.

It's probably just the weakness after your hangy ony cold. Rest my dear, not the time to push.
