I did box steps this morning which kept my time down.

Eating—My eating continues on track

What hurts today—The usual. Right heel is really bad. Left forearm and right elbow are also bad. This really is not my “complaint” corner but I need to track these things to see if anything ever gets better. I am anxious to see how my back feels in the morning after my tryout with the GHD. Even though I was very cautious and did not do much on the GHD I can feel some tightness in my lower back.

There is some good news. Mom returned home yesterday. Looks like she just took longer to recover from the effects of the drugs used during the surgery that we had originally hoped. Debbie is taking her sister home sometime today from the hospital. Debbie’s vacation to Myrtle Beach starts next Wednesday so we are hoping that the crisis level stays to a minimum until she can get away on vacation.

It is cold, wet, rainy and windy outside. A preview of what is to come. It’s a perfect match for my mood and how my body feels.

I was able to grab a couple pics on my phone camera of the guys working on a 39 inch box jump

  1. Debbie says:

    Glad your Mom is home and doing better and that Debbie’s sister will also be going home today as well. I hope with the reduction in stress, your mood will also improve. Hang in there!
