Little bit blue and sore but doing remarkably well.

[TASMANIANRED]

I think a bunch of us are on the same weekend.

Ms.B and I are for sure.

[TASMANIANRED]

Mobility is crucial..

Fortunately all the research says exercise even with the elderly can have tremendous impact.

My prayers are with you and your parents.

Thanks, Taz...most appreciated. I’ve given my Mom the task of checking into walkers this morning, and sending me a shopping list before I leave early for the chiropractor. I’m taking the afternoon off and hoping we can get a start on the necessary issues. One of her friends has been thru the mobility issue already, so this should help. I shoveled the driveway and threw the ball for the dog about 11p last night and shoveled and played again about 7a this morning. He will have to wait til I get home for a walk this afternoon. He loves sleeping, so that shouldn’t be a problem. LOL!

Yummy breakfast Arrow....I’m starved!:) *Hugs*

[Kathy in Alaska]

Thank you....better to get all the info now and get started on solving the mobility issues...I gave my Mom the assignment of getting info this morning. I’m hoping to start on the solution this afternoon and weekend.

Hope all is well with the car Beachie. Have a super weekend! *Hugs*
