Have not made it to 10,000 steps on my pedometer since I was walking in Nanaimo BUT this will be the week as it's so much cooler.
We are walking to Church in 25 minutes. Hey, if I put the pedometer on Hershey, would it register double because of her four legs? Hmmmm....guess that would be cheating.
I apologize if you took my advice on the yellow Oregon Scientifics thingie, Ellis...they SAID the battery should last a year and it was a couple of months...I always get so excited with a new pedometer, like it HAS to be such a good brand since it looks so good and is working so well!
I am going to try to put a new battery in. I mean, DH is, before Tuesday - cuz I am sure he needs something to do over the Labour Day weekend!
So, you mean it's going to take 3 days to put the damned thing in? Don't worry, Lidian... You know what's really STUPID is that there's no "off" button. (although I did accidentally fall asleep in my jeans one night, and burned a few "step calories" )
Yeah, I have to take it off when I go to the washroom because it counts about 25 steps for pulling me trousers up and down! I have my backup one on now (it is going to take me MORE than 3 days to change the batteries, ha ha!) and it SEEMS to be clocking up a lot of steps...though could be I am walking more, since we are back to the school thing (8 trips or 4 round trips a day, 2/3 mile for each round trip).
Off to the drugstore to buy pencils etc - was filling the pencil cases at 9 pm last night. Youngest DD felt sure she would need a LOT of sharp pencils today, & possibly a show & tell item, etc etc.
Walked to work today and it is my intention to walk to and from my doctor's appointment today (about 20 minutes each way) and then walk back home tonight. I am also planning on doing my p.m. yoga tape tonight to see if it helps me relax.
