It was forecast by the Wii. It said that I had gained 1.5 pounds! -- and now I'm 5 pounds away from the goal. When the Wii asked the cause, I clicked "not enough exercise". DUH! Most of the day was spent working through all the piles I have let stack up over the last month on my desk. Found some things that I thought had gone missing. Also got the filing done -- Margaret like to do that as a means of staying up to date on our expenses. Now, when I pay the bills, I will have to remember to go straight to filing.
Realizing I had been in the house all day, I decided to go to the mall and take a walk -- and maybe a little shopping. Didn't take long to realize how out of shape I had gotten in such a short time. I guess the day with the kids X2 didn't really count as exercise, although I was delightfully tired. Anyway, the stroll through the mall was more like a dottering old man wandering. Did find out that I could intentionally get around fellow wanderers, and could almost convince myself that maybe I was in better shape.
Got a salad from Wendy's, and before I finished it, got a looooong phone call.The caller was accustomed to asking how I was then going into a long narrative.
Now as I write this, my legs are jumpy, I am stiff, and my back will welcome the adjustment and massage that is on schedule for next week. I guess reality kicked in -- I can't fool myself that I can overlook getting out, walking and being more active, and I am the only one who can really push me to take care of me. I guess this is part of the process -- and I don't have to like it -- I just have to do it!
