I read half an article today that said the best time to take walks is during those times when the weather is most likely to keep us inside. We should not avoid wind and rain, as well as a mud puddle or two, because those are the times when we are less likely to catch airborne viruses. The wind and rain quickly clean away pollen and germs. I have to admit, I hate the idea of going out when the weather isn’t sunshine and birds singing, but when I do it is kinda nice. I also feel so much better about myself when I get a good little walk in. If hubby goes we always have a nice chat. OKAY! I have a new New Years Resolution! More walks in the rain and wind. I am not going to wait until January first though. By then I have gotten so fluffy from all the delicious holiday food, I feel super icky. Nope. Gonna start now.
