The house is decorated for Christmas, the Christmas cards are addressed and ready to mail as soon as we put together the annual newsletter; and the shopping is done. The only other things left to do are baking cookies, wait for two packages to arrive and wrap the gifts. Not bad. I do believe I am ahead of the game this year.
Since last I posted; I have really cranked up the distance in my walking. My first big accomplishment was walking 5 miles. I was very proud of that, I still am. However, my proudest day came when I walked 8.5 miles. Not that I walk the longer distances every day, I don't. But I try to get in as many long walks as I can in a week. As long as my feet are OK I am OK to walk and the secret to happy feet for me is wool socks. I don't get blisters when I wear wool socks and good shoes.
Who can say, maybe my next milestone will be a 10 mile walk. I would really like that.
There is always hope.
