Someone emailed wondering if I had injured myself. Thanks for the concern, but no injury, unless you count Life’s battle scars such as shoulders, knees, heels and hips. Maybe I am “injured.” (Should have stayed on the bunny hill forever)
Anyway, on a whim, booked an consult with a terrific young fellow (40 years old – that’s young). Told him I’d like to be taught head to toe stretches and exercises – so I’d do them correctly.
After 3 sessions, we have a program set up. This is in conjunction with the treadmill and outdoor walking and free weights.
As my family would confirm, I am the ultimate wimp for strength or endurance – this program has helped me immensely.
After going without sleep for several nights, I didn’t even think of “the program” – it’s too bad because it doesn’t take long to lose ground. But today is another day and I’ll get with the program as the cool people say:)
Another reason I decided to do this, it’s important for his care. Bathing him is a toughie and if I am strong, may prevent an injury. Considered installing one of those walk – in tubs but methinks I’ll be out of this home sooner rather than later and it’s not a selling feature for a family.
A trusted friend gave me the name of a realtor so I did a consult, have already started selling my stuff and when the slide happens, I’ll be prepared. Until then, we’ll enjoy the house.
