    Up early and out weeding. Reckous weeds that don’t die. All I envision is them everywhere come spring and me not able to get at them. So three bags full.Then off to mow my dad’s grass one last time and run out the last of the gas in the mower. It almost reached 60 today. Freaky weather.
    Dec.27: 5.5 miles
    Dec. 28: 8.75 miles of walking with my pup today.
    TTD: 171.25 miles

    And that is a wrap of 2024! Not a good start with orbital cellulitis and sciatica, but I made up for it with revamping my garden, lots more walking, improved stamina, dropping 32 pounds and continuing, lots of dog training with my pup, and finally getting my shoulder addressed. 2025 will be a rough start with shoulder surgery, but I look at it as a temporary situation to a positive outcome.
    Here is wishing everyone a good 2025. Clean slate, make every day count.

    Thanks David and Janet. Our group has really shrunk over the years. I often wonder if it is because all of us are getting older, but I sure do appreciate the accountability this group gives me to keep moving.

    I waited until the last two days, but I finally made my December GOAL! :)

    Thanks, Char! You are definitely right about this group having shrunk a ton. We have all aged a few years and along with that came numerous health issues between us, but we are committed to sticking it out for the long run. I absolutely know for me, to not exercise would seriously degrade my quality of life going forward. I've already had a taste of what that would be like a couple of times. EVERYTHING gets more difficult when I lose flexibility and add weight. Simple things like getting in or out of bed, putting clothes and shoes on, walking to get the mail or going to the grocery store, climbing stairs...they are all directly impacted on a daily basis. I NEED to keep moving or else I am just giving up on life. All of that is not so obvious when we're younger and think we'll live forever and nothing will change. :) It becomes instantly and painfully obvious once we advance in years. So in this new year, I'm going to choose to keep moving and fight to get stronger and more fit. Like my favorite quote from the movie "Shawshank Redemption", we need to either "Get busy living or get busy dying." It's that simple.

    Wishing you all the best in 2025!

    I finished the month at 65. @darkrider42 - that's a great quote to start the new year. Thanks!

    2024 sure had it's challenges, not least 2 hurricanes and caring for puppies, but I am still grateful for all the good things it brought. Happy moving in 2025!
