It still sounds like good exercise! You probably exercise your arms more than you realize...lifting grocery bags, making a bed, scrubbing a shower or a kitchen counter...it's all arm muscle.
Having lived in ones with and without one I can tell you there are pros and cons to both and HOAs come in a variety of strictness as far as rule enforcement
I remember those boots Bakers and a few other stores had them. Several on 34th street in the cityAll the talk about boots in this thread made me remember how I wanted the boots Madonna wore in Desperately Seeking Susan. I didn't/don't even like Madonna. But I remember seeing them on display (I want to say Bakers?) and thinking they were really sharp. My mom refused, and in retrospect, it was the right decision. I had to have been 11-12 at the time, so they were way too mature for me.
My mom picked out my clothes for me every day. I do remember a particularly ugly pair of kelly green slacks we had gotten as a hand-me-down, and they were really not in style and I fought her on that one. I was usually pretty....docile? But I was made fun of enough without adding that to it. And I remember my first day of 7th grade, because it was a new school and our school counselor had told us that the teachers had heard about our class and already hated us all, and that the seniors had vowed to give every one of us a swirley and the teachers weren't going to stop them. I was terrified and didn't want to stick out. My mom told me I had to dress up to "make a good impression" on my teachers, so I had to either wear dress slacks and a button down blouse, or a dress. I knew NO ONE was going to be wearing a dress, and the only pair of slacks I had was canary yellow. They were also hand-me-downs from one of the upperclassmen and she was shorter, but heavier than me. So the pants were a bit too short, but really baggy. And the only blouse that matched was yellow and white, wide stripes. I kind of looked like a rodeo clown, but it was that or a dress that looked like this but in purple.

Everyone else was wearing stonewash jeans and tshirts. I was literally the ONLY girl not in jeans and I was teased mercilessly. Even my best friends, who were all LDS and conservative were wearing jeans. It was seriously embarrassing, and rather than making a good impression on my teachers, it made me look like....well I'm not sure, but it didn't make the impression she wanted. They weren't so much thinking "She looks like a nice girl who has been well-brought-up", but more "Oh my. That girl doesn't even know how to dress herself."
Your picture day outfit sounds classy!I remember having a huge fight with my mom when I was in first grade. It was "spirit week" for homecoming, and every day was a different dress up day. Crazy hair day, or hat day, or school colors day. Your class got points for how many kids were dressed up. One day was twin day, so you were supposed to find someone else to dress alike. So one of my friends and I wanted to dress alike and we kept asking each other "Do you have this? Do you have that?" And what we had in common was, we had both been in the Missoula Children's Theater production of Johnny Appleseed when they came to our town. So we both had a red Johnny appleseed shirt, and we both had pink corduroy pants. My mom didn't want me to go to school with pink pants and a red shirt. I told her I HAD to because that's what Khara and I both had, and it was for twin day! We wouldn't get points if I didn't dress up! My mom was so insistant that people would think she dressed me in mismatched clothing and they would think she was a bad mom. In the end, I threw such a fit she let me go in the clothes I picked out, and I don't think anyone was paying attention to the clashing colors...it was all about school spirit and all that mattered was that you dressed up for the theme that day. But oh man, I remember that fight. I asked Khara if her mom had told her she couldn't wear it....her mom hadn't said a thing. She picked out her own clothes every day. And that was when we were 6!! I didn't get to pick out my own clothes until high school and even then, I couldn't wear it if she didn't like it. How old were you when you wore the pastel striped jumper with the red and black striped tights?
Well the thing with my mom was that she was really old fashioned...she was older than most moms. She was almost 40 before she had kids, so there's like a whole generation in between. She went to high school in the early 50s when girls had to wear dresses to school, and there were no school sports for girls, and they all had to take home ec. It was a vastly different time. Her father died when she was two and as she was an....unexpected child, her brothers were 10 and 13 years her senior, so they were her father figures, and her oldest was serving in WWII when she was a child and he sent her things from Europe. She grew up practicing air raid drills...her life was sort of tough. When her mom got cancer, she was the one who was home to take care of her. All of those experiences kind of shaped her into a very independent person, but also one who was very rigid. She wasn't used to negotiating or compromising. She had very firm beliefs about things and she took it personally if someone else believed something different or liked something different. We argued once when I had just graduated from high school when she went behind my back and called my employer and almost got me fired from my job because SHE didn't think I was given enough hours. I told her then that I wasn't exactly like her, so I was bound to handle situations differently than she would, but I was 18 years old and a legal adult and had the right to handle them my way. She told me that was the worst thing anyone had EVER said to her...that I wasn't exactly like her. She saw that as an insult and as rejection, because she had tried to raise me to be exactly like her. Those were her views. So when I picked out clothing she didn't like, she saw that as me rejecting her style, and I wasn't allowed to wear things she didn't like because if she didn't like it, it wasn't appropriate for me to like. I wasn't supposed to like it if she didn't. She didn't want to be judged by others if I went out in some mis-matched outfit. She was always thinking people were judging her. She wasn't thinking in terms of what was in style at that time and how people would treat ME, it was all about how SHE would be judged, and she was going by the norms and values of 3 or 4 decades before. It didn't matter to her what MY experience was, as long as no one was talking about how SHE had dressed me. Of course when I told her the kids made fun of me, it was always "You shouldn't care what other people think", which was pretty hypocritical now that I think about it. But she told me once that if I didn't do things her way, I was saying her way wasn't good enough for me, and I was therefore rejecting her, so I had to do things her way.
I still need to tie up some loose ends, but yesterday, I turned in everything for the VW and was able to buy a new vehicle.
My only concern up front is that it has a really light interior. I like the look of it better than the dark interior and it was this or nothing if I wanted AWD. I'm hoping I can find some personal peace with this and start finding more healthful eating and exercise come more easily from the stress relief with the resolution.
You could take hand weights with you, especially when you walk flat trails. It'll give your arms a workout as well. Or carry a water bottle and a hand weight.

I have no clue. Maybe you should see your doctor. Do you clench your hands when walking. Good luck
Dehydration most likely. Try drinking more, preferably something containing electrolytes. It happens to me occasionally when I'm in WDW and forget to drink.
