I did better in August than in July, in part because my husband was house sitting for friends all month and I had a lot of extra time on my hands and I had to do all the dog walking.....I am always grateful for the opportunity to walk.

I look forward to seeing all of you in September.....

:bigsmile: Dancing, thanks for setting up the challenge for us and continuing to be so encouraging. :bigsmile:
