Nicole @SpringIsHereSoHappy ,

I am getting better, but not out of the woods yet. I made a Walgreen's run in The dark of night last night.

Thanks Nicole! Your gifs always bring a smile! Hope everyone makes it through their challenges and worries.

For me, I hope I stay awake through a dental procedure today. Sleeping odd hours here.

HOW ARE YOU?  🤔

Quiet day. NEXT month will be "busy" with Mammogram and Dental Cleaning - TWO things I rather NOT do.  😎

My daughter has a Weekend Meeting THIS WEEKEND in Atlanta.

EVERYONE, FIND YOUR PEACE TODAY  💙💙💙

I had my books squashed in November and all is good. It never hurts for me just a small pinch but,  maybe because I have a very large bust.  40G bra size.  It's better to be safe than sorry.  I have started taking steps for my physical health.  I had a physical,  complete blood work done and am making a GYN appointment. It's been a long time for that one but,  I haven't had my friend visit since 2014, LOL. Dentist is going to wait.  I had my flu shot,  covid booster and my first shingles shot which my arm hurt for like 4 days.  Good news is (not) I have to get a second booster of it next month.  Our physical health is just as important as our mental health.  

[Cadee2719]

  So glad to hear that you are taking care of your health.  I don't know if it is that I am so old or that since I am no longer a caregiver, I have begun to pay attention to my own health.  It is good that we are now paying attention to our bodies and ourselves and getting the care we need.  It seemed as if I woke up one day and begun to have all these issues to deal with.   I, too, need my shingles shot and am afraid to get it.   Take care of yourself Kim and tell your son I said "Hi".

Jonibee @jonibee ,

So good to hear from you! It's so exciting that you are trying new things. Any of the arts can be soothing for the soul and stimulating to the mind. Great choices to make the best of your current physical status as you continue regular medical followup.

[mc6844]

Thank you, Nicole. Hope you're good.

[MarcyW882921]

Nicole @SpringIsHereSoHappy ,

I am improving each day, but have not yet reached full recovery. Today I had to reschedule this week's appointments for routine annual testing and hair appointment since I don't want to risk potentially passing this on to anyone else. I do not have patience for illness!

Lol Marcy @MarcyW882921 , YOU ARE my daughter's twin!!!!

She NEVER "slows down" and hits the gym.

NOT ME = any excuse I can get to be a "baby" I accept = I complain about my OLD AGE aches and pain and NOT venturing out IF I can help it IF not feeling well  🙄🙄🙄

Okay Ms. Zumba  💙💙💙

I'm tired and sound like a frog. Still not healthy but I pushed through an online Zumba class this morning. Physical activity (at least for me) is a big part of physical and mental well being.

  You continue to AMAZE me!!  Take care of yourself and get well soon.  ❤️

[Cadee2719]

  Thank You Nicole.  Today my son returns from Idaho and will help me get my house ready to put on the market.  It is raining so hard here and we are having a lot of landslides and flooding.  Hope the hill behind my home holds out!!!!  

[MarcyW882921]

Cadee @Cadee2719 ,

I was wondering about you this morning as I watched the news RE: the weather in CA. I hope you stay safe, your home remains stable, and your son returns safely! We are concerned about you so keep us posted.

Marcy

[Cadee2719]

  Thank You Marcy.  My son arrived safe.  We are water logged here!  We go from drought to flood in one rain.  The destruction is unbelievable!  Hillsides coming down and knocking down houses and trees.  So far my hillside is stable.  (Thank You God)  That would be all I need; is for the hillside to destroy my house.  That would be the final straw.  So far today, no rain.  Expecting some later along with thunder and lightning (which never happens here).  I will continue prepping the house for the realtor and praying that this rain ends soon.  Thank You for thinking of me.  I hope all is well with you on this journey called L I F E.  ❤️

Thank you Nicole. Quiet day at Walmart is good! We all seem to have a tendency to get overtired and wear ourselves out. Ceaseless activity doesn't make the grief go away. Except it's probably better than no activity. Moderate activity, can we do that? lol  Take care!

▶️*** Tend something ***◀️

This is also on my early survival list.

(1) Clean out the garden.

(2) Water the plants.

(3) Brush the animals.

(4) Bake someone a cake.

(5) Send a care package.

Why this soothed me, I don’t know. I’m sure it has something to do with thinking of others, or giving love, or getting out of myself for awhile. Whatever the reason, tending something seemed to help. It did then, and it still does now.

[mc6844]

Thank you Nicole.

Yes my headache finally went away and then it came back when I acquired some kind of other malady. I will be camping out on my couch for awhile until this decides to pass.
