July 27th is Take Your Pants for a Walk Day. It’s a great day to get some exercise and an easy day to celebrate. Taking your pants for a walk is just a silly way of saying, go for a walk. Unless you are wearing a dress or a skirt, you probably are wearing pants. So, by definition, as you walk, they come along.
Give your pants some exercise. The walk will do them good.

THOUGHT FOR TODAY
One step at a time is good walking.
Chinese Proverb
Well yes, I have to admit that I’m not walking enough. When it heats up outside in the summertime, I stay indoors way too much. Even though it’s almost the end of July, we still have another month or hot weather to go too.
Studies have shown that walking at a medium to fast pace regularly can have tremendous mental and physical health benefits. Walking not only helps burn calories, but can also boost a person's mood and can help treat depression. It also reduces the risk of a variety of health problems including obesity, diabetes and heart diseases.
We’re experiencing some true summer weather here this week. Mostly sunny with temps in the mid to upper 80’s, we could even see 90 degrees. Take care in the heat and don’t forget to drink plenty of liquids. It’s easy to dehydrate when it heats up outside.
I hope you all have a GREAT start to this new week. Happy Monday !
COUNTING MY GIFTS
The sovereign invigorator of the body is exercise, and of all the exercises walking is the best.
Thomas Jefferson
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
2982. for walking, always good for you
2983. for sunny summer days, we needed a break from the rain
2984. for a cool and refreshing glass of iced tea
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their
commanders.
Almighty and eternal God,
Protect our military
as they discharge their duties
with the shield of your strength,
may the power of your love
enable them to return home in safety
that with all who love them
they may ever praise you for your loving care.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT’s
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
GOD BLESS YOU ALL !
ADVICE FOR TODAY
All truly great thoughts are conceived by walking.

What a cute name for the day to remind people to get out and exercise :) I'm with you, Ma, this hot weather has kind of put a damper on my walking I was doing beforehand. Looking forward to it cooling down a bit after September so I can get back to the routine of it. I do like walking and know the great benefits of it, just hard to get motivated if it is warm out :)
betty
I love celebrating Take Your Pants for a Walk Day! :-)
