Another Monday

I made it through another Monday! The weekend was a bit tiring, with lots to do before next weekend arrives. On Friday I get more "happy juice", and I need to have things caught up and taken care of while I can. No matter what else happens, life does go on, and things need to be done. And we all know that there's always something needing attention!

I'm still feeling pretty good, although I still tire easily. It's funny (well, not funny at all, you know what I mean) that my stamina is just not there. I can't climb stairs without getting extremely out of breath, I can't breathe well enough to walk fast enough to get my heart rate up for a little exercise, and by the end of the day, I'm just exhausted. Whine, whine, whine....
The good news is that I'm not taking quite so much Tylenol or Aleve as before, and I'm sleeping very well without them. When I can get out for a slow walk with the dog, I feel better than when I don't. And when I snack all day long, I feel pretty darn good. It's exactly what the doctors always say, "Diet and exercise is the key to feeling good." No kidding.

Thanks for being here. It's good to know that people are out there cheering for me. The happy thoughts, the prayers, and the encouraging stories all help more than I can say.  ¶ 6:25 PM
