Today is cloudy and it was sprinkling this morning as we walked. At the end of this month, we will only have 2 months left till we hit year 5 of walking every day. I’m thinking going into year 5, I probably won’t be as OC about having to walk as I just need to keep walking. I need to for a number of reasons. It feels good to get my blood circulating first thing in the morning but more important, I feel like arthritis is starting to impact me. I’m pretty stiff til I get going but even thru out the day I notice I’m stiffer getting up and moving. Not a good thing, and I may go see my PC doctor and ask if that’s what this is.
So today I went and got my blood tests. It’s been 6 weeks, so we’ll see hoe things are. It’s hard to say in terms of how I feel because I generally feel excellent. My doctor was watching my hematocrit numbers as they were just slightly high. He wanted me to hydrate more but I pointed out that started after I was in cycle 2 of Velcade so???
I had a great introvert day. I did have to call the insurance as they said I had a balance on my last labs. But I’ve never had a co-pay on my labs. so 45 minutes later the nice lady did resolve it for me. Other than that it’s just me and the quiet today. I did my FlyLady zone( the living room) and since there’s not a lot to do there it’s done.
I’m not sure what I’m making for dinner. I have left – over brown rice so maybe that. It’s not exactly what I feel like but then I don’t know what I feel like and that’s always the problem. So I’ll just wing it till it’s closer to dinner time. My daughter doesn’t get home till 7 pm so we’ll see. My husband is in San Diego working so…???
I will be thinking about you and hoping for favorable test results.
I am very impressed with all those years of not missing a day with your walking! That’s impressive!!
For me, it’s so important. The key I think, is I get up put on my sweats and jacket and my walking shoes. I wear North Face hikers. Then I have I cup of coffee and then I’m out the door. It also makes a huge difference that our park is 1/2 a mile away with the walking trail. The trail i sonly 1/2 mile but we go around 3-4 times. When we’re traveling or camping, we wait a little while later to walk. Maybe after being up in camp for 30 minutes or so.
when in doubt order a pizza
Absolutely!! and honestly, I’m ready.:)
