Editor,
Like Lois Fried, I too started walking, but for me it was Dec. 14, 2020, the day my granddaughter Trixie came into the world.
Editor,
Like Lois Fried, I too started walking, but for me it was Dec. 14, 2020, the day my granddaughter Trixie came into the world.
I decided she deserved the best version of me available and that would involve improved health. But because I am a fan of Spinal Tap, I decided to walk 11,000 steps every day and I haven’t missed once. It has helped me lose 45 pounds and yesterday Miss Trix moved in with us from Los Angeles permanently, life is good.
On my walks I noticed the quantities of PPEs floating around so I started carrying a bag and a stick. I have been picking up masks, gloves and flossers every day since averaging 30 pieces on my hourlong journeys around our town. I believe most of the masks are wind blown from vehicles when doors are opened but when I see tightly wound and tied masks on the ground, I get irritated. And there is no excuse for the flossers, ever. Ms. Fried, we are indeed better than this. It takes a village for sure. So do what you can, do no harm and properly dispose of all forms of trash always.
