I made it to the gym 4 days this week, I'm down 1.5 pounds. I started off with my goal of 1.5 miles on the treadmill in 30 minutes. Friday's time = 1.5 in 28 minutes. I'm getting back in the groove, and it feels good. My goal, of course, is to be back to my 15 minute mile. It'll take a little work. And each day I'm growing older, so that adds a little bit of the difficult back into it.
Have you ever put on your shoes, and felt a small piece of something - pebble, or something - and then just left if there? I did yesterday, and I could feel this little thing sliding around in my shoe with every step. But I still left it. The little dig of discomfort served to remind me that something life isn't too comfortable, and yet it's ok for it to be that way!
My aunt continues to grow weaker as the cancer continues to gain a stronghold on her body. She's in such good spirits, and jokes with me about her "journey to heaven". She's picked out her clothes, her choices in scripture and songs -- she's one fantastic lady! It reminds me that I need to be as positive and proactive as she's been. I hope I have all her dignity when it's my turn.
My sister's doing well with her own treatments. She just spent 2 days at the beach, and this weekend she's in Lake Tahoe, living the dream I guess :) I'm just happy that she feels well enough to do the things she's wanting to do!
In the meantime, I sit and putter at my computerwith my little vignettes about family history
and the things I remember. Always fun for me!
Yes.
I know.
I'm a weird one.
And I'm OK with that!
