If more people could do that -- well, we would get "piece" in the world. I groaned, but I get it!!!!

HEY --- 2.35 on a sick day is pretty darn good!!!

It helps me to remember what I got accomplished and to let go of things weighing me down. Each page has Monday through Sunday, with dates for each day. Opposite the dates is a beautiful picture, by Mary and a quote that she has chosen. The theme for 2023 is: Comforts of Home. The quote for this week, January 2-8 is : "If we are to create peace in the world, we must first create peace in the home." Richard O'Keef. <br />I think quilters do that, one piece at a time. (Go ahead and groan, my family will.)

I HAD to get out and move around. I made a list of stores that I could wander through plus did the little bit of food shopping needed. By the time I got home and inefficiently got everything into to the house/put away, I had walked enough steps to equal 2.35 miles. I was winded but oh my I felt so much better.<br /><br />Do SOMETHING! Don't compare yourself to Elaine's incredible distances. Just MOVE! :-)Ellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06918153566288679035noreply@blogger.com
