Exercise

I used to walk miles everyday but, after breaking my leg at the knee a year and three months ago, it just hurt. It would send sharp pain through my knee everytime I tried. I thought I had it licked when before Christmas I actually made it to the end of my street but then it kicked in again. How frustrating because I cannot stick to an indoor exercise routine. I have joined gyms and for the first 2 weeks I am religious about going but then ...... let's just say the kids keep me hopping. Well a week ago yesterday I decided to try again. My poor dog has gotten fat and I am out of shape so.....
I did it! I actually walked without pain for two miles....TWO MILES! I have walked almost everyday since. AND my dog did not pass out either! But I am not sure she is enjoying it as much as I am....she keeps giving me that "don't you want to go back?" look. But I just keep on walking.

Chapter 1: Catchup begins



The trees changed colors. And fall was upon us. The youngest boys played 5-pitch on the same team and we had fun! The last few games were a bit chilly. And then came Thanksgiving and the Indians were everywhere!

We caught this one running through the house!














With the cooler weather came hunting season. No cans were safe from the beebees!





More later......
