Woke up early yesterday to get things done that desperately need to be done. Had a very enjoyable day with my oldest child. We went out to breakfast just the two of us and it was nice to catch up. We do some of our best talking when we have our little Mom & Me dates. After coming home and getting more stuff done we went out to the movies. All in all, a good day with D.
While we were out an about I found a new work out machine that I have been eying for a few months. I've been really apprehensive about buying it because I hadn't found anything that had enough support for my back and neck to be able to do the exercises. The greatest part was it was about 1/3 of the original price, clearanced out. So someone opened the box or the box got damaged -- Who cares so long as what's inside is ok! It was! Yippy! Better yet, when I bought it, got it home and put it together I found out it really will work. YEA!!!! I had a great gentle work out. I really felt it, but this morning I'm not dying because of it. My back actually feels like it got a good stretch and isn't so compressed, my neck isn't locked into one position and my leg isn't numb! This is a wondrous thing for me. I have nerve damage in my low back/leg, chronic back/neck pain, mild scoliosis, and fibromyalgia so finding the right exercise is really hard. I hope this really will do the trick. The last cool thing is the machine folds pretty flat and compact so it won't take up a bunch of room in my little place.
We've actually had sun the last week or so which has been such a wonderful change of pace. Still cold, but NOT RAINING! Today though it looks like the clouds have rolled back in. Hopefully it will burn off and we will squeak out one more day of sunshine before the rain comes again. It's been nice to be outside. I don't want to have to go back into hibernation mode.
Not a lot of writing has been done lately. It's rattling around in my brain trying to decide where it wants to go and still isn't sure. I wrote a few scenes but wasn't happy with them. Luckily I was smart enough to tuck them in the "Crap" folder to save for later. Usually there will be something I can pick out later to justify the time I spent writing it so it's better not to just delete the whole thing or throw it away. This weeks schedule is a bit slower so hopefully I'll be able to get some more work done. |
