Walkin’

I’ve been doing a lot of walking.  I started up again after learning earlier this year that my diabetes was out of control.  I like walking.  I’ve been trying to get in 12000 steps (6 miles) a day.  Generally I haven’t been all that successful.  But I TRY!

I learned this morning that there is indeed good news.  My diabetes is back under control.  But the doctor is not happy that my pulse is too low (52)  That might be okay for someone in tip-top condition.  I’m a long way from there!

Today, it’s up to about 95.  Went for usual lunchtime walk with my boss today… down to the lake at ConAgra around it and back… about 2.55 miles.  On the way back my boss noted that I was beginning to drag.  I tend to set the pace, but today I just couldn’t keep it up.  We stopped and bought some gatorade.

Oh gracious am I wiped out.  I feel totally listless.  It feels like holding my head up is a challenge.  I guess I must have overdone it today!

Have a good long blog for tomorrow.
