Thank you gardenerjoy for keeping track of us so accurately :cool:

can we also post here, our little exercise victories? Like, how working out helped me when I had to climb into the back seat of my small car and clamber into the front to kick out my frozen doors? :devil: at age 56 I want to be able to keep doing that even though I'd prefer not to have to! :devil:

VermontMom: Being able to access your frozen car is a great motivation for exercise! That maneuver required muscles that were both flexible and strong.

Sum38: glad that your pet is home -- I hope she recovers quickly.

My exercise victory this week was standing for a total of about four hours on Saturday. I'm feeling some residual effect in my legs, but I don't have lower back pain like the last time I did something like that.

January goal: 1200 minutes, ST or stretches every day.
