Walking, Walking, Walking

I must have broken my own personal record today for walking barely anywhere and taking forever to do it.  I walked for just under 5 hours.  Before Lupus it would have been 2 hours max and I would have accomplished all sorts of stuff.  Now I go  s l o w.  I stop to rest.  I swear.  My feet swelled to completely fill my boots.  Gah.

One of the people I see on my walks is the crossing guards.  Our crossing guards are older women who do it cuz they love it.  This past month we had a guard have to go home because she was having a gallbladder attack.  Seriously?!  I wouldn't go to work in agony like that would you?  I appreciate them so much.  Some days they are the only adults I speak to!  They can also recite the weather forecast, remember every child's name and teach them safety at the same time.  I'd say that is not too shabby for someone we see for a few seconds everyday.
