I haven't done any of my stretching this week--trying to lay off and let the body catch a break to stop that odd aching that was setting in and making it hard to get around. It's worked for the most part, although I do miss doing it, so that's a good sign.

But not stretching doesn't mean I haven't exercised at all this week. Wednesday I was on my feet most of the day while baking. Wasn't strenuous exercise, but my back did feel it--I was pretty sore by the end of the day.

And yesterday was shopping day. 5 stores in 5 hours. You cannot tell me that's not exercise. Somewhere in the middle of the last store, I was ready to just sit down wherever I could. I managed to stay on my feet until we got in the truck, and managed to help unload, but after that I was pretty wiped out.

Only 2 meals yesterday: brunch at IHOP and dinner from Paco's Tacos (excellent sopa!), which explains the snack off later that night. I finished wrapping the last few packages I could wrap (no floor crawling needed, thank god) and was in bed and out fairly early.

So, yea, been quiet here, not as focused on the health thing, but been busy! It's likely to keep being quiet until after the holidays. I should "pack" my lunch today, but there's just too much going on, especially with kids and husband home.

Off to finish a whysper then get to work!
