    I'll take up your challenge. I'll be walking; that's my favorite by far. And I will start in a few minutes--as soon as I get changed out of my jammies (needed some incentive!) and put my shoes on. Thanks!

    This sounds good! I was doing a monthly challenge for Feb, but I got off-track with the posting and now I don't know where I left off. :laugh: I think a week at a time will be better.

    I might do more, and if I do I'll just edit this post. But I've done what I was aiming for today -- anything else will be extra. :)

    I liked how we did the Wii today. I did it with my 4-year-old, and I let her pick out one activity, and then I picked one, and then she picked one... etc. I got a good variety, we had fun together, and we both got the exercise we needed. :)

    I am counting the cleaning today because I was dancing while I did it, and I really had a sweat going. I was too tired to do my regular workout because I was rocking out too hard. :laugh:
