    Oh heavens! I haven't got a record of my steps... apart from what I wrote here! Last week I lost the scrap of paper I noted them on, and this week I just posted here and now they've disappeared...

    Oh well... as it's already thursday, I think I'll start again on Sunday!

      Welcome again Twinkie! (seeing as my last welcome got eaten by the board upgrade).

      No need to worry about the 10,000 per day thing... that's apparently a "healthy" number, but the main thing is that you set your goal at what's comfortable for you, or rather slightly above what's comfortable.
      Some start very low indeed and work up... others only count parts of their days, like when they go for walks outside. This is very much a no-stress challenge, but wearing the pedometer really is an incentive to do that little bit more, which is awesome!

            Morning Sally....
            I got locked out but it was just a partial day..came back to a new board that I haven't really looked at to much. All of the posts from the 21st 22nd or around there were missing.Theres still alot of people missing also...You might want to go to the post from Tom about the new board and let Tom know you got locked out for that long..must be a glitch.
            My numbers are screwed up...I didn't do any excercise or steps ...well I moved I just didn't count it!!
            so even though I got a big fat zero for the last few days I'll count from today....

                      Well, that's good too and a whole lot easier!!

                          Weather's about to change here... storms brewing. Just had a heatwave: 36°C (approx 97°F) which is at least 10° C above the average for this time of year. Phew! The first hot spell is a killer, until you get acclimatised.

                          To think I have tenants in one house (I handle holiday rental houses) who insist on heating the place to the hilt night and day and, at the same time, have continuous heating in the swimming pool too! Some people are totally and utterly weird!!!

                              Wow... a Queen Anne Victorian house sounds wonderful! Sounds, from what you write, like you don't have it any longer though.

                              I hear you on renting being trying at times... you never know who you're going to have to deal with really, as sometimes the most respectable seeming people can be the worst!

                              Yes, my job is fun. This is my first year and I'm enjoying it. It's a lot more than I bargained for though. 14 houses plus our own rental properties has me running around (good for the steps... apart from all the driving) and spending hours on the phone liasing!

                                Sally...great job on the steps...I didn't make it well I forgot yesterday and we spent a few hours at a flea market looking for bargain...didn't get a one !! and didn't get a freakin step counted..I always do better during the week though....

                                I don't have the big house anymore,when my husband pased in 2000 I couldn't afford it...but now I have this 1850's farm house with a wrap around porch,and alot less rooms to clean. My Queen Anne had 16 rooms and the apt.by the time I finished on the 3rd floor I had to start over..lol..but it was a pretty home someone else is enjoying it now.
                                We had a lightning storm Sat. night and when I went to go on my p.c. in the morning it was dead, so I have someone looking at it....he thinks it might be just the power supply that got hit by a surge or something..it's got the protector on it but???? so I have to wait until I come in to work...thank goodness I have the internet at work I'd freak out otherwise...
