Last weekend I drove 2 hours to visit my friend in another state. Even though I did it a few months ago, I still had some anxiety about going, because I'm chronically ill. But I asked her to keep her expectations low regarding what activities I may or may not be able to do, and it worked out great!

That’s great. Keep it up!  And enjoy it, and the goals.  I bumped my step goal to 11,000, always need something to shoot for.

I also was able to spend a couple of hours with my daughter and granddaughters age 6 and 1. They all went on a week trip with her husband's family and had a great time. It was a bit difficult for me to hear. Kept fascinating from feeling gratitude that she married into a close family and feeling a loss of not having the same with her and her girls.
