I walked to a supermarket yesterday for a gallon of milk. It wasn't far at all, but did get me breathing faster, especially carrying the milk home. It was well within my physical capacities. Twas nice to have that milk this morning.
Today I walked to the post office - about a half mile each way. I actually had more energy for housework after the walk, than before it. Funny how that works. My lifestyle had been so sedentary for the past 5 years, that doing next-to-nothing has become my default.
My neighbors have been so kind, offering me rides. Haven't needed to take them up on that yet. Spring is here now. Walking is kind of nice. I saw buds opening on a bush. I'm still sad, but less so.
