Morning Mastodonians!

I am so looking forward to the #WinterOlympics! It is just a wonderful thing to have playing on the TV while I’m working. I was going to cancel Peacock Plus, but I’ll keep it for one more month to get my complete Olympics fix. Much like the World Cup, I get addicted to having the games on TV. Right now, I have women’s hockey on, but I think I’ll put on the men’s downhill warm-ups as well. That’s an incredible run, over 2 miles long. Let the games begin!

Thankfully, the weather has slightly moderated here in the #Boston metro area, although high temperatures are still several degrees below average. The dogs and I did get our #Walkies in yesterday, and we should be able to again #Today. It’s unbelievable how sore I am after missing a week of walking. Knees, thighs, and calf muscles are all protesting. I would love to go somewhere different for #DateNight. But we will probably end up going to our regular Chinese restaurant. There are worse fates.

I can Totally relate on the sore body from not walking as much😒 OUCH!! "Arthur Ritis" is a mean old dude once the bitter cold weather sets in! I walk the rather long halls in my apartment complex as a backup plan, but nothing keeps us #BabyBoomers more limber than kind of brisk walks Outside in the Spring, Summer & early Fall IMO. In the meantime: KEEP MOVING every chance we get☺

@TrueBlue4THREE thanks for the encouragement! I do have an under desk treadmill that I’ve used in the past, but I didn’t this past week. Oddly enough, I feel guilty using it because I’m not taking the dogs out too. And it obviously is no real substitute for walking outside.
