10,530 steps yesterday.  Today is going to be a low step count, I will be spending a lot of my time watching the Rose Parade and then the Rose Bowl so I will just try to get steps in each hour but not worrying about total steps.

I don't watch the parade or bowl game, I binge watch The Twilight Zone on SYFY New Year's Day!

4381 steps yesterday.  I really did spend a lot of time sitting in front of the TV but I did somehow manage to get steps in each hour so not all bad.
Yeah Barbra, I have also watched the Twilight Zone Marathon many times.  It never seems to get old.

So true Wally! I never get tired of binging Twilight Zone. Every once in a while I'll see one that I have somehow missed. It has been my New Year's Day pastime for years.

7102 steps yesterday.  I started the day feeling really sore and took it easy but it got better as the day went on so not 10K but not bad for the time I was active.

14,529 steps yesterday. Both of my knees feel stiff today. It has been raining a lot, maybe it is the dampness in the air. Will keep an eye on it.

14,871 steps yesterday. Knees worked themselves out as I walked. They are stiff again today, hope they work themselves out.

Hope you feel better soon Wally.

4521 steps yesterday.  I just tried to make the 250 minimum steps each hour and did manage that but otherwise I took it easy. 
Thanks Barbara, today I seem to be a lot better so may be closer to "normal".
