Since I got off work early and was able to eat a big meal and nap this afternoon I got myself together for 2 miles from the 4 mile power walk with Leslie tonight. Feel good about that.2

I’m back from a whirlwind trip from Michigan to New Jersey. Working on getting some motivation back.2

I am sorry that I haven't been posting last two weeks. Rough two weeks for me.... so earlier I wrote my catch up post 🌺.
Ok, now I'm back so I plan to read and to respond to all that has been going on for at least the last two weeks that I missed....
@AnnofB you are so consistent and doing really well with your workout plan!! That list of workouts 🏃♀️ just keeps getting longer every time I scroll down... there are some more miles
!! Well done 
!!!
@bacpath I am hoping that you are having some relief with your foot pain over the last couple of weeks 💟. There are several here that are also dealing with foot pain in this group along side of you recently. Please do check in and let us know how you are doing. Hugs 💐.
@VeggieGirlforLife I'm sorry to read that you also have numerous issues with your feet. I can truly empathize and understand. Awesome work on your bathroom. It is especially cool that besides busting up all of those tiles you are also tearing out the plaster walls. WoW 💪!! I grew up with plaster walls so I do have an idea of what you are doing! Now all that work that you are doing is truly building up your strength!! And you are also really burning up those miles!!
Back on the 18th you wrote that you had a dental implant put in, I trust that you are feeling much better by now. Ouch!!
You are definitely racking up your miles!! You go girl 🏃♀️ .
@mypinkbikini, yay for walking with your puppy 🐕. So sorry that you foot started hurting. You asked if anyone does salt soaks. I do... especially Epson Salt foot soaks. Yes, they do help and feel so good. It has been a good while since I did one in the tub. I've actually forgotten how relaxing those are. Thanks for the reminder! You're getting some great miles in this month!! And so is your puppy!
Oh, @Deeder522, I am truly sorry that your BFF’s mother passed away unexpectedly
last week. I am especially sorry that you weren't able to be with the family at that time. {{Hugs 💖}} . So much sadness for you 💐 .
Oh, my!!! I just got back to completing my post and it sure looks like you were able to spend time with your friend and her family since your whirlwind trip was from Michigan clear to New Jersey!! Oh, I am so happy that you could take the trip. What a blessing for you and all who you visited with. More {{hugs 🤗 }} for you.

September Goals
88 / 85 Miles tracked
Apple Watch Challenge: 265 / 400 Exercise minutes this month.
Made my mileage goal but not the watch goal. The weather in Michigan is starting to go topsy turvy again.
Thanks for all the kind words. It was a blessing that I could make it to NJ and back to MI with members of her family. I'm good friends with one of her Aunts too so being with both of them at this time was a good step towards healing.
Here's hoping October goes better.3 -

Thank you @texasgardnr for the encouragement. It sure is problematic to have feet issues when you love walking!
Busting up tile was so fun! But now I have a completely gutted bathroom which is a little scary! :laugh:
The dental implant issue is better, but that was just step 2. It takes a whole year to complete this process! Very thankfully, I've been told the next steps are not invasive, so they should be much easier.
Looks like you've done well at staying active this month. Nice job!0 -
