I have been reunited with some old friends!!!! I was cleared to begin walking (only) last week after six weeks of exercise restriction. It was a fantastic week to begin walking outside too! It is a temptation to go farther and faster than recommended. I did overdo it on Wednesday and had to take two days off. I learned my lesson and will follow Drs. and PTs. orders and ease my way back! I was able to finish Game of Thrones audiobook while walking.
I am dog sitting for my friends this weekend, but have been advised against walking her to avoid any possible jerking. So hopefully hubby will come along with us as I just can't leave her behind!

Congrats on being able to get outside again. I've done something to my ankle and so just this morning when I decided it was mind over matter, I tried to go for a run, sharp pain. Guess I'll do something else. Here's Mine
Congratulations - That's great news!! Have you chosen your next audiobook?
Isn't it great to get out there again!? I love walking and listening to audiobooks - there's really no more enjoyable way to get exercise :) Happy trails!
I bet it feels wonderful to be out walking again. That dog really looks like it wants to go along with you!
That's wonderful! There's nothing better than getting your health back after a forced rest.
SO happy you will be able to enjoy walking outdoors again. enjoy
YAY! ANd I am so glad the weather is cooperating with you. I plan to get my bike out this week!
I never missed walking so much until I was told that I couldn't do it for a while!
I loved the Game of Thrones but there was such a long gap between I think the third and fourth book I lost touch. Must get back into it.
Walk good (Caribbean saying - means be well).
It's amazing how a simple thing like a walk can feel so wonderful, but I can relate. A few years ago, when I had back surgery, I was very excited about being able to walk to the store a few blocks away.
It took some time and practice to get up to speed again.
Congrats...and it's a good time of year to walk, too.
Thanks for visiting my blog.
Great you can start getting out again! i hope your husband comes so the little doggy can tag along! Have a GREAT weekend :)
good to hear you are back at the walking bit, don't overdo it.
What a cute dog.
Oh, that look -- it has TOTAL WORDS in it.
It's like "Take me for a walk, take me for a walk, TAKEMEFORAWALK!"
so glad that you've been cleared for some type of exercise!!! Take it easy and it will all come along !!!
What a cutie!!I'm glad you can start walking again. Last week was a great week for it. This one, not so much.
