Resolutions? I've never been big on them, myself. But it occurs to me that if you fail to aim at anything, you'll hit it every time. . . . Hit nothing, that is.

Isn't Elizabeth from Pride and Prejudice considered "a great walker"? Sometimes I like to imagine myself a great Austen walker as I'm taking my dog out for a stroll. Then I'm thankful I don't have to bother with fussy skirts.
Every time I watch one of those movies I am overwhelmed by thinking of the muck that must have been soaked up by the long skirts. . . . And have you ever tried walking up stairs in a long skirt with your hands full and not otherwise free to hoist the skirt to avoid stepping on it?!
Still, I do like long skirts. . . .
And yes, I believe it was Lizzy whom the insufferable Caroline Bingley allowed as being "a great walker" - at least in the movie. . . .
I used to be quite a walker myself - but it's counted as rather odd here in the States. . . . Many places don't even have sidewalks anymore!
Hey - good to hear from you, and hope you're better soon!
