Time to report on my walking for this morning.
I had to go for my blood test and took advantage of being outdoor
already to do a bit of walking. And a bit it was, the weather was much colder
than I anticipated and I felt it in my lungs. So the walk lasted just about 20 minutes.
I hope I will be able to go downstairs later on to do more walking, but right now, I feel pretty tired, so I am just doing computer stuff.
How was your walk, I hope that you fared better than I did.

@marlina ...Not when you just walk in your mind's eye. That way you can walk on any surface.

When you are out in the cold like that you should cover your nose and mouth with a scarf or something. It will help to warm the air that you are breathing in.

I have not walked today except up and down the 3 flights here today a few times doing wash. Still, I am glad I have the energy to do so. Glad you got some kind of a walk in Marlina. Good luck with your blood tests.

For the time being, exercise is unpacking and putting furniture pieces together.

Now walking yet, but I'd hoped to use my exerciser last night while watching a movie, but I didn't get off the couch. Another day, I suppose. I forgot that the other day I ran into one of these types of posts and was going to check it out, but I must have checked another one first and then forgot.
Do you wear any kind of scarf when walking in colder weather? If you put it nearer your mouth or nose, it will allow the air to warm a bit and maybe not be so cold on your lungs. Yet, I think twenty minutes in colder weather is quite good actually. Don't you have an inside mall or large store where you could go when the weather is especially bad?

My exercise today and yesterday is painting the walls in my living room. I can't tell you how many times I was up and down on the ladder and squatting on the floor.

I have not walked, I some panic attacks today and managed to mostly keep it under control, that's a win in my book.
