So now I'm on my 10,000 steps a day program. To reach this amount, I walk for about an hour each day. My walks are taking me through the "top of the hill" subdivisions. I am learning which properties are good ones, and when I pass an open house, I go inside. I also pass a lot of friends houses at which I stop for a cup of tea as well (not all of my steps have to be done at one time!). Today I stopped at Sue's house. She just had new hardwood flooring installed (looks fabulous!) and is just finishing off painting her whole house. This visit brought back fond September memories (when I painted my whole house). Good work Sue.
