I find keeping a little score card on the nightstand with the number of sitips I do helps me reac h my goal as does ativity partners. I would text my niece just the letter "k" when I did my 50.
I'm planning on getting out of the house every day - even if it's just to stand outside on the porch. I need to get out and just enjoy "outside" whether it's rainy or snowy or freezing.
@AutisticYouth
i walk when I feel good usually aim for 4 times a week 4km keeps me functional. I have a fear of losing mobility sometimes I use a cane when needed.
@AutisticYouth How are you planning to keep yourself physically active in the upcoming week?
I did an exercise class and a Tai Chi class and I have a yoga class later in the week.
I did leaf pickup Saturday and Sunday for a few hours and believe me that was quite a work out.
My tentative plan is to resume work on a wood project that's been sitting around for over a year now...that would certainly involve movement against a certain degree of resistance. The weather may not allow it, though.
Short of that, I do need to pick up a few things at the store. If I walk there then that would take care of it; if I have sufficient energy (or am just not smart enough to summon a ride) I may throw the shopping bags over one shoulder & carry them home. That would be over half a mile on foot, easily. Also gotta do laundry & few other things.
But it all depends. If I get flareups, then none of the above will happen. That is always possible.
@slowdecline48 sorry you get flareups that must be painful.
@soulsings *shrug* It is what it is. No one is guaranteed perfect health in this life...except for the genetically blessed, perhaps.
@slowdecline48 we all face decline - it just happens at different times. Hope you can see what is going right for you.
Fortunately I can. My life could be worse than it is, by far... It would be nice if my health were better but I can't complain too much about my finances. Hopefully your wallet/purse is doing well, also!
@slowdecline48 the problem is that getting old has its challenges. I cannot do what I did 30 years ago. I do not know how things will be in the future. I am trying to make the best use of life that I can. That gives meaning to my life.
@soulsings Also, you're right..."it just happens at different times", indeed. That's a cold hard truth. One of the greatest challenges of this life, I think, is accepting--or at least getting used to--that truth.
I discussed physical exercise with my therapist today. I'm not ready to go into anything specific right now.
@WharfRat i understand, take your time and only do it when you are fully ready
@AutisticYouth
Great post and thank you for sharing this beautiful picture. Love it!

For some time now I follow a different exercise routine so I start my day with 10 minutes exercise, do another 10 before lunch and 10 2 hours before bedtime along with occasional walks. Just 10 minutes right after waking up and having finished my gratitude meditation puts me in a positive attitude for the new day!
