I've hit the walking trail......

I've taken back up walking again....(Though I really promise to take it easy on my poor knees!) I've basically had to as I have blood pressure/weight issues...I went to the ER a couple of weeks ago with a pulled lower back (hurt like a you know what!) and my BP was really high...Now I know that just being in the ER and in trememdous pain...you're blood pressure will go up but it's never ever been that high..So I went to my Family Doc who basically chewed me out, (it was still high) -He's been my Doc for years now so he can do that, wouldn't have it any other way, He told me I needed to make some serious changes! Now I had stopped walking before on my treadmill as my knees went out...and the weight came right back on over time...Oh well...I am taking it very VERY slow this time....not expecting fast results....Started that Pilate's for Dummies DVD also....

So now I am walking and contorting my body in ways it was never meant to be put....Well see what happens! hahahaha

On a better note...Manisa showed me the ultrasound results...Boy she's really starting to pop out there....5 months down and 4 more to go...We were happily walking thru Target to check out all the really must have baby things....I can't wait til I get my income tax check in January....It's getting spent on my granddaughter...Just haven't told Mike that yet! hehehe....Patrick and Manisa are leaning towards "Ciara" for a name...May not have spelled it right but it's pronounce Kira....I can live with that...We've been checking out all the Irish Baby names sites...that's what he wants...an Irish name...It's also easy for Manisa's parent to pronounce...They are from China but came over here before Manisa was born...but they still speak with a heavy accent...They are wonderful people all in all...

I seem to be rambling on and on today....SORRY!!!!

Better get going!

Take care all!

I remember shopping for my daughter when she was an infant. So much fun! And the stuff just gets cuter and cuter the older she gets!

Good on ya for walking. Just baby those knees! I started at Curves For Women and it's the best thing i've ever done!
