One of those weeks,

Just not feeling it with the walking, same with the eating.  So put on a couple of pounds and now only 18 pounds lost.
Anyhow, joined an exercise class in our community centre for old folks!!  Remember I live in an "Active Adult Community."  So everyone is over a "certain" age.  This class is held on a Tuesday and Thursday morning and it is FREE!!!  It is sponsored by the government I think, I will look into that and see what I can find as it may be in other communities as well.  It's to get older folk up and moving.

Grocery shopping.............

I did a "little" bit of grocery shopping on Friday.  I had read on a group I am part of on Facebook, about how some couples only s...
