2 Mile walk this way.

Another tracker bites the dust. My Garmin Vivofit fell off while golfing. This is the second tracker to fall off me. The next one will be cheaper and have a watchband clasp. UGH!!!
In the meantime I will use my phone if weather permits golfing or a long walk. I am focusing on healing my legs with yoga and Qigong. Not walking every day has already made a difference. Fingers crossed by Spring my legs will healthier.

Take care of your legs. What is Qigong?

Lilymay2,
Qigong is a standing meditation and holistic approach to healing the body. It is slow movement working on balance and coordination. I love it and do it along with a yoga every morning. Here is a sample.

Well, I am not getting to do Leslie 2X per week, but I definitely have a more decluttered and cleaner house! :laugh: I have also been getting all of my family's Christmas presents wrapped and boxed to send to Netherlands. The mail to Europe is so slow! It took 15 days for their Thanksgiving box to arrive! :no way:

Oh my gosh Pinky! I cannot imagine losing my Vivofit! I bought all new bands for mine and change them out once a month or so for more even wear. My first band broke after a year for no visible reason that I could see and that scared me. The weakest part of all these devices I think are the bands. :explode:

Thanks Ann for getting my late hike approved! We are taking our parkas and our winter socks and are going to hike our local 2 mile Mountain! The only caveat will be if there is ice on the rocks because we do not have grippers for winter rock climbing as we are normally summer hikers. The Adirondacks are beautiful Mountains in NY ranging from a few hundred feet to 5,344 feet. Most are tree covered with bald summits so the views of the other mountains in the range can be spectacular! This is a good thing since hiking them is not always "spectacular!"

Thanks Mary for your sweet note at the end of last month. Most of my tests have been negative and the MD at UoM Medical Center is settling on an allergic reaction to something unknown. The hives that I had seem to be the issue that eliminates most serious autoimmune diseases. The joint swelling could be lupus, RA, MS but none of these are showing up in tests or current symptoms. I also recovered on my own within one week with no treatment, which is not normal for serious autoimmune diseases. Except for being nervous about this coming back and some neuropathy in my right hand left over from all the wrist swelling, I have been fine! So, unless it shows up again, there is not much that can be done. Now, I have no excuses-I have to "lace up my shoes and get walking."

Walk Strong Everyone! :bigsmile:

You are doing fantastic Brenda. You have a lot on your plate, no pun inteneded... I'm so glad that your med tests have come back without pointing towards those very serious diseases you mentioned. This had to be very scary as well as energy sapping, yet you have been getting those miles in. Well done you.

The Adirondacks sound so beautiful. Can't wait to hear about your hike!

You are walking STRONG!

Ann
