Books are heavy (I've got the entire Harry Potter series in hardcover!! I could use that as ballast to keep a hot air balloon from flying away)

Book pages blow around in the wind when you're outside or if your gym has a hugemongous ceiling fan that creates a breeze in the room.

Kindles weigh something like a few to several ounces (not sure what the specs are) and the pages dont turn unless you click the Next Page button.

Kindles (the Kindle 2, which I dont have...I've got the K1 instead) can also read your book to you (in a computer voice) as long as the publisher wasnt being a jerk and had that functionality turned off for books they publish.

Plus, the Kindle is just too cool. I'm a gadget freak tho. A nerd. I love gadgety things like Kindles.

I think we all know where you are coming from Snoopy. I'm glad it was worth the payback.

I swam 1 1/8 miles this morning. It was so nice to be in the crystal clear pool.

Crystal clear seems sooo relaxing. Nice swim

I did 1 1/4 miles on the Elliptical.

Took a 1 mile walk.

Did 20 minutes of PT exercises.

NIce Job Snoopy

Sabi, good for you for playing a little golf despite vertigo. Vertigo is the worst.

Sarah,

You put in 50 hrs each week at work on your feet, then tend to your five dear kiddos when you get home. You do great my dear, never, ever forget that.

I'm so glad you try to get exercise with your DH on your day off. We want our resident Mommy to be in the best of health.

I'm going to join in with this thread. I've got off my butt and started moving again.

The (swim spa) pool is at 29 degrees and I swim 30 minutes usually. I swam for the first time since feb (when it all hit the fan). Near killed me. But I think it was the heat more than the swim. First humid day since dx.
I also walk the fence line every day. We only have 20 acres but lots of corners and separate paddocks.
Wipes me out.

and I just rode my horse and didn't get thrown off this time. Yayyyy

Hi Pud and welcome to the club. I enjoyed hearing about how you exercise.

Horses always scared me. I got on one once and only once and that was enough for me

I swam a mile this morning.

its too hot/humid for me to go outside and try even simple walks. I have been doing gentle yoga in the AC house.
