Woke up today and said to myself, "Girl! Its time to do you!!" So I got dressed and headed out for a walk. Sunrise at 730am, 45 degrees, and it felt good. I kept it short on purpose, but that's ok. Build up to a goal, rather than burn yourself out after the first walk because you pushed too hard and end up with residual pain.
Its easy to say, yep, I used to do 10k steps a day so I can still do that. Nope, can't because I have spent the last 6+ months taking care of mom. She wants/needs company to sit with her. It wasn't enough knowing I was close and doing my own thing. She wants me to watch TV with her. Which means spending hours sitting, and more sitting.
This new year means a new version of me. I want to do the things that used to give me pleasure again.
Thats why I headed out for a walk. And I liked it!
