The pressure is building as I enter week 5 of training for the Susan G Kolman 60 mile Walk for a Cure. I’m having dark thoughts about walking all 60 of the miles, I can’t break past the 14 mile mark without getting blisters. Great shoes, fitted? Check. $10 a pair socks? Check. Glide or Vaseline? Check. Moleskin? Check. The latest suggestion was to put duck tape on my feet before I walk. Maybe that will work. Duck tape is great for everything. Dark thoughts be gone; keep the love coming.

Here’s some food for thought, check out Sharon’s Senior Living Blog “Bongs for boomers” article . With all the talk about medical marijuana I found this article about the increase in pot smoking among seniors (us older folk, not high schoolers) pretty interesting. Some of the kids that tried marijuana in the 60′s and 70′s are going back to it now their children are grown and they are retiring. Does low dosage of marijuana help with the aches and pains? What do you think?
