be more active

I played with our dog for about 30 minutes, darting around the living room, throwing her ball, and rough housing. She is a very hyper dog (half Jack Russell) and she needs about two hours of exercise daily, so I’m going to play with her a lot more often than I have been.

I also walked out to the mailbox, and tried to stay on my feet rather than my butt more often today.

It’s a slow process, but doing what I can manage at a given moment is most important right now. Once these things become habit, I won’t have to try so hard to do them :)

Being more active will not only benefit me and help me to reach other goals of mine, but it will also help me to push my husband into being more active as well. He has health issues like I do and we both could really use the exercise, no matter what it is we do. This is one goal that will definitely take some time, for both of us.
