Special Mom’s blog

Today evening I plan to get some weights from the mall. Yup, I am now interested in strength training. My bestie has been pushing me. I do balance myself in yoga class but she said that is not enough for my heart. My bestie was the one who told me how to track my steps nearly nine years ago so she must be right. I am starting it low and slow. Found something for seniors on YouTube. Committing to a gym one on one instructor is not on my agenda.

Anyway we did make it to the Diwali celebrations yesterday at the temple. Sparklers, lights, decor, fireworks amd food were all good. We had a satellite parking and I was ready to walk to that instead of taking the shuttle bus. But that stretch of the road at that time of the day was not safe so we didn’t walk but just took the shuttle bus. Why am I connecting it here? Yes, I can walk now. Our family doesn’t have that fear of walking. We move a lot. Not that we can climb up Mt Everest but we can be active.

I do have some household work. I think that also counts towards some kind of physical exercise 😀!

Anyway Diwali celebrations weren’t in our agenda this weekend. The weather was perfect and it was fun.
