Today took me by surprise!

After waking at 2:20 P.M., I was struggling to be able to walk from the bedroom to the living room.

This in itself is not strange but the fact that I could not get going and every trip to the bathroom was with the speed of a sloth all day!

I end up texting to say I can not make choir practice because it is too far to walk.

After this I start my day with coconut oil pulling and drinking lemon-lime water, ending with a breakfast of 4 fried eggs and dry toast with sausage.

Soon after this I fall asleep and sleep until 12:30 A.M.. It is now 4:42 A.M. and God is suggesting I write a story before going to be. Typing seems to be going fine or actually well. Amazing.

Missing choir practice because of not being able to walk is a new thing.

Life is not a straight shot up to strong and healthy. The body wears out and needs rest. Wouldn’t it be nice to know when my body is going to shut down?

It is my back muscles that control most every thing I do! They quit helping me move because  the 12 inches of metal make my muscles tire and want to quit being used.

Two days ago God gave me the ability to get up and move at about 8:00 P.M.. I suggest walking around the block even though the windchill is below 0!

 

After the walk I make food and eat a salad which takes an hour or more.

 

 

At 1:00 A.M. I start making coffee cake and have a bite before cleaning and moving furniture around in the living room.

One thing I have learned is I need to do what I have energy to do when I have it because it won’t be there in the morning. This is why I am cleaning at 3:00 A.M. because I am able. It has been many years since I have done this so it is time to get at it again.

 

 

Tuesday I run 3 miles with the windchill of -1 dropping to -3 before I finish. I felt the difference.

The pictures are for your enjoyment. Winter snow and sunlight are a joy to me.

Remembering tomorrow is a new day! 

We all have another shot to get busy doing life. Keep pushing forward each day knowing God is with us helping us when we ask and sometimes because someone else asks.

Find Joy even when things don’t go the way we want.

GOD IS SO VERY GOOD.
