I stayed off my feet for most of the day and got a nap in the afternoon so not many steps but it seems fine today and so far I am back to my routine.

We were both too tired to work yesterday so took a day of rest. Plan is to get rest of panels up today and firmly anchored. TNR reopens 4/2 so she is going to be busy there, we are trying to get it done before then...

4311 steps yesterday.  I felt a lot better and interesting that I have no pain in my heel so what ever was causing it is gone.

I didn't do much in garage yesterday, just couldn't push myself any more. Instead I started my Taxes...UGH!

One slim strip of wall board is left and all the walls will be up. Then the dividing wall will be dealt with. Looks so different in there. Will take another pix when last of walls done.

One slim strip still needs to be put in place. Not sure if it will happen tomorrow as I have long dentist appointment and my friend it taking me and will do a bunch of recycling of things I am getting rid of and her things too. I may be able to get a photo before we leave.

Next I will be painting and she will build the divider wall between cat room and where I'll park my car. That is going to be a bit tricky as it will need anchoring into/onto the  existing concrete slab. More photos will follow as we get closer to finishing.

Long dentist appt today, plus drive time will probably lose 5 hours of walking time. It is what it is, I'll make up for it tomorrow! I think I'll be painting a lot!

3934 steps yesterday.  I missed one of my hours and was busy and didn't even realize it until I checked later.  Well I got the rest OK.

More than I expected. We got to dentist 1/2 hour early so did some mall walking and in that single hour I did 1784 steps which helped because the next three hours were a total of 100 steps. I guess there is something for mall walking as it is so mindless to wander and just look at stuff to kill time. No mall near enough to me to be a real option. I do manage the steps right here at home just fine most days.

May be painting today, but we both have found that we are pushing ourselves too much and have needed these last couple days of rest. She is going to bring me an assortment of left over paints for the walls and go home to begin constructing the divider wall in sections, I may do a little painting and see how my hands like it.

ETA just talked to friend, today is going to be a rest day. I will finish taxes and take to preparer and be done with that at least!

6,064 steps yesterday.

Took the time off from garage work to finish taxes and take to preparer. Then shopped in the larger grocery in town which added more shopping steps than normal. Rest of the day I took it pretty easy.

4,496 steps yesterday. Another take it easy day.

No "work" in garage, but some planning. I ordered new LED overhead workshop lights from Amazon (sigh miss our credit) to replace the old fluorescent ones, half of which aren't working anyway. We discussed window trims. At the Home Resource store there are donations of leftover building supplies for cheap and we decided getting different types of trims for each window would be fun. No painting as it is still too cold now for that, but soon hopefully. Still lots to be done!

I was still hurting yesterday so didn't get into trying to get steps in but so far today it is going OK so I am going to try to get back into it.
