Using my walker, I just went outside and went down and back up my wheelchair ramp (it's about 15' long). And my feet and legs aren't even tired!
To celebrate, a brand new selfie-portrait (from a new smartphone I'm just figuring out). Photoshopped 'cause if I were to post it as is, I would be forced to call it "A Study Of The Interior Of My Nostrils".

(15,805 posts)This is similar to my walker, but mine's sparkly purple. I've entertained thoughts of starting a 'walker gang', maybe "Hell's Not Quite Yet Angels", slogan like "What?? Speak up!!"
Anyway, keep up the good work!
