I felt like lounging around and being lazy this evening. I mean I really really did! So I watched part of a movie, looked out the window and thought...NOPE! It is going to be dark within an hour. So I stopped the movie... Picked my lazy behind up off the chair, and went for a nice brisk 50 minute walk! I really enjoyed it too. Once I talk myself into doing it, I always end up enjoying it... so why so hard to talk myself into it sometimes??? God only knows! I'm just crazy like that I guess! LOL

Now.... Back to the movie~!

good for you, patrece!!!  i hate going for a walk, it hurts my knees too much.   you know i have had my knees replaced on both legs and they hurt as much now as they ever did.  i'm very glad you were also good to yourself and watched a movie.  crazy like what?  a fox maybe. lol.  hugs, vick

LOL...could be like a fox huh? hehehe.
Thats terrible that you went through the knee replacement and didn't benefit from it. I can see where walking would NOT be pleasant for you. Do you do water aeerobics? That would be very gentle on your knees, at least compared to walking or other upright activities. Please always remember tho the old addage "use it ot lose it". You are far too young to allow yourself to get inactive! Although this past month those grandkids kept you hopping I bet!
Hugs!

i did water classes for a while but i quit and started using my gazalle again. it is easier on my knees than walking. i exercise about 65 minutes 6-7 days a week. i watch a movie while i do it and i only get to see the end of the movie if i exercise. keeps me motivated.  otherwise i get bored and tired to quickly. vick
