Fitness Check In Day 68

After going out for about 1 block and a 1/2 on Sunday, my body was craving more exercise time, so last night after work, I bundled up with two hats, since I am still getting over that cold, a fleece over my shirt, scarf, gloves, you name it. I did look like the kid from … Continue reading Fitness Check In Day 68

The day I saw the test results from my endoscopy online over a week ago, was the same day I had an early dentist appointment and in my rush to get out of the apartment so I wouldn't be late, despite waking up early, I forgot my hat and left with wet hair.

Since my dad's passing in 2022, we've been going to visit him at the cemetery a few times a year. One of the days we go and bring him flowers and talk to him is the weekend before Thanksgiving.

Fitness Check In Day 65: One Foot in Front of the Other

Today after taking a week off from doing DDPY Bedflex, I dove back in followed by the physical therapy stretches to offset any tightness in my pelvic floor muscles.

Yesterday I was determined to start the Bedflex program over on the DDPY app and I did.

Fitness Check In Day 61: The Month of Giving Thanks

This Halloween, my brother and I ended up not walking in the New York City Village parade this year like we had done the past 3 years.

To Record or Not Record, That is the Question

After two very productive days where my energy levels were pretty high and the pain in my body and my throat were alleviated significantly due to, I feel, the constant movement, I woke up today wanting to record the first episode of a podcast I was thinking of starting. I had the idea brought up … Continue reading To Record or Not Record, That is the Question
