Peaches Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 The Importance of WalkingWalking can add minutes to your life.This enables you at 85 years oldTo spend an additional 5 months in a nursingHome at $7000 per month.My grandpa started walkingFive miles a day when he was 60.Now he's 97 years oldAnd we don't know where he is.I like long walks,Especially when they are takenBy people who annoy me.The only reason I would take up walkingIs so that I could hear heavy breathing again.I have to walk early in the morning,Before my brain figures out what I'm doing.I joined a health club last year,Spent about 400 bucks.Haven't lost a pound.Apparently you have to go there.Every time I hear the dirty word ' exercise ' ,I wash my mouth out with chocolate.I do have flabby thighs,But fortunately my stomach covers them.The advantage of exercising every dayIs so when you die, they'll say,'Well, she looks good doesn't she. 'If you are going to try cross-country skiing,Start with a small country.I know I got a lot of exerciseThe last few years, just getting over the hill. We all get heavier as we get older,Because there's a lot more information in our heads.That's my story and I'm sticking to it.AND Every time I start thinking too muchAbout how I look,I just find a Happy HourAnd by the time I leave,I look just fine. You could run this over to your friendsBut just e-mail it to them! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
