GRRRR, just lost a long post! Today sun is out but still freezing temps but still went for a 20 mile bike ride. 4 layers and even had to shed one of the layers, did XT bi and tri. Mary, I ordred a Schwinn AC performance plus carbon blue, comes on Monday. I loved your mess pics and liking the mess. I liked the mess....for a bit, getting set in my way as an empty nester. Ronne, I'm doing ok with walking 2 days in a row, felt a bit sore like an overworked muscle. So now hills are ok as long as not too far (ie. don't do my long hilly walk, i'm increasing slowly), up on toes I think is still a bit hard. I'll keep enjoying the bike, thx! I did notice that with UB weight work and just walks, my garmin said I hadn't done any intensity (something in there says 150 min a week), so today's bike ride I got 260 min in. Kinda interesting, I'm not sure what I used to do had that much intensity. Oh, that is so irritating about the delivery! It takes me a while to get to the door from the remote areas of the house, maybe they are in a hurry with the holidays. I hope my bike delivery goes off without a hitch. Murphy, I couldn't imagine being a boot as long as you've been. I had one for 2 weeks when it hurt the most and then after a month or more was in another week. I'm assuming it's your left foot and driving is ok? Mine was the left.
