One year ago, I couldn’t walk without a cane and was looking at wheelchairs (because the Statin I was taking was ripping up my muscles). Now, a year later, I’m closer to my goal weight and training to become a Jazzercise instructor!

So I wasn't planning to do more garden work, but I have a lot of flower seed mixes and the pond isn't going to happen this year. I also really dislike how messy the last bit of the backyard is, so I decided to go for a kind of flower meadow. There is still enough time to prepare the soil. The plan is to remove the top layer of grass and roots by the first of June. Then I will let it sit for 2 weeks so I can see if the weeds and stuff are all gone and put in the seeds around the 14th.
I started yesterday with trying to remove the stone edges. I don't know why the previous renters thought making a border out of concrete covered bricks was a good idea, but it is heavy as frick and a pain to remove. I will keep you all posted on how it goes. Some pictures under the spoiler. The area I marked in orange is what I plan to turn into a flower field. The last picture is the bit I dug up today.

Daily step goal: 10,000

Hi all! I just got back from a fun trip to NYC. I saw some fantastic Broadway shows (Wicked and NYNY..so good!) and walked around a bunch. It was really nice to get away.

That's a huge accomplishment @nancyinmo , congratulations!

Can't wait to see your new flower field @Pupowl , you seem to have a real eye and green thumb for gardening!

@Armygirlarmyof1 Glad you are getting some needed family and friend time soon!

Went into the office yesterday. First time since mid-February, what an ego boost having people comment on my new shape. Craig and I will be taking off to the lake on Thursday. It will just be the two of us as my son has to work. We are planning on shredding the roads at the ranch and maybe doing some dirt work, but it still should be fun.

@Cyncia85 - Way to go on the bike!

@jessicakrall8 - Awesome job on meeting your walking goal for May!

@nancyinmo - Congratualations, that's a major milestone.

@pupowl - I bet the flowers will be amazing when they come in.

@Armygirlarmyof1 - have fun on your trip.

@Pupowl , the pw is correct and it water weight has finally come off and so has some of the swelling due to the weather changes Here. It affects me horrible

I've been experiencing pain and other symptoms in my right foot. I decided to take my feet issues to a podiatrist; made an appt for next week. I dropped my car off at the mechanic and then planned on doing a walk/jog with my pup on the way home. We did a little jogging. It's frustrating because I need and want to increase my physical activity. Difficult to do that when I'm in pain and don't want to 'add insult to injury.'
