Today is Wednesday, July 25th.
This morning I started my morning with a "wellness" program at work. It was a class on strengthening your core. It was difficult to be in a group with my peers and not be able to do all the exercises that the instructor was showing us. I suppose not everyone needs to know what I am dealing with. I am fairly certain no one else cared what I could do or what I couldn't do but it sure would make it a lot easier for me if everyone knew. It's not a secret of course but it doesn't come up in casual conversation either.
After each wellness session we are asked to provide ideas for future classes. This provided a great opportunity for me to share my insights on the importance of collecting your family health history.
Have you done this yet?
Start.
Start with something, yourself, your children, your parents, somewhere. I'll continue to noodle on how to create a template for that. Once I figure that out I will email to my distribution list and then everyone who receives it can do the same thing.
On Friday morning I am going to see my doctor. I am having a few stomach issues. They are probably nothing and are most likely related to all the medication but she wants to see me none the less to rule out the possibility of an infection. Two of the medicines I take are immunosuppressive drugs which means that my immune system is compromised. I am not too worried about it though I do feel a bit crazy having to call the doctor about every questionable thing.
As I mentioned, today is Wednesday. On my list of things to do today is a day for a cardio activity. I figured if I wrote it down I would be accountable so, off I go.
It's 8:15 PM. It's very humid outside but I am going for a walk.
I was trying to find a quote to write down without having to leave my computer. Here's the ABC's I have on a plaque in the kitchen.
