What are you thinking about?

Thinking about how our little decisions can drastically change our lives.

Two years ago, I got a personal trainer at the gym for several reasons -- I find free classes frustrating because (scoliosis) I can't do some of the exercises and thus don't get the full benefit.  It's also easy to slack off and then quit.  But if I'm paying someone, they can modify exercises so I can do them (or work the same group of muscles) and if I'm paying, I will show up.

The results?  I no longer need a cane for walking (my osteologist said "basically, your knees are crap" and has shots available if I need them) and my knee pain is minimal.  And the cardiologist reported that my heart is stronger than most people's my age.

I'll be seeing a dietician soon to work on my diet and expect similar good results in the future.

Little things, folks... little things.


And a Merry Christmas/Happy Solstice/Festive Festivus/Light-filled Hannukah/Delightful Kwanzaa (etc)  to everyone!
