On Wednesday becky and I got back on track and walked. Jim and Jax walked with us. So it was a nice walk. we took a different route and that was nice for a change. Thursday we had a special guest on our walk, my great nephew Dalton joined Becky, Jax and I. I wanted to go a short walk and Dalton made me go my regular route, nice to have encouragement from the younger crowd. Then Dalton stayed all night while Becky went to work. I really enjoyed that. Friday was not a great day for my walking. Becky picked Dalton up, then I ended up in the emergency room with Jim, he has acute bronchitis, chest x-ray was clear, they did a breathing treatment and it imporved his lung sounds. He has to use an inhaler and take antibiotics and hopefully we can finally kick this cough. We had lunch with three of my aunts, two cousins from out of state and mom, some others who joined in, that was enjoyed by all. Then I had adoctors appointment. WE got there at one pm and left at 4:30 pm. Long day of sitting. Then we went to watch Jim's son race. So not a great walking day. I need tips or ideas on how to get moving on busy days. I am 1.32 miles from 474, so I plan on being on 474 sometime today. Stay tuned for my next goal.

Sorry to hear about Jim being sick. I came back from vacation with bronchitis! On busy days you have to remember that every little bit counts. If you only have 30 minutes do things around the house like leg lifts or light weights. Building muscle will help along with the aerobic activity. Don't think that just because you don't have a large chunk of time or that you aren't outside walking that other forms of activity don't count. Make every minute count!!! (now I need to go take my own advice!) love ya!
