I've maxed out. Closed this blog.
This is a way of making myself write something coherent and grammatically correct almost every day. I'm opinionated and need an outlet. I'm also prone to flights of fancy. Thanks for stopping by.

         Yesterday I was in a short sleeve cotton shirt and was sweating half-way through my walk. Today, I had on a heavy zipper sweater with a big collar, and I was cold, despite walking longer and taking a big hill up an asphalt construction road at the far end of the park. Such a difference from yesterday!

         I managed the long stair case much better today, even after the big hill. I almost stopped when I couldn't go any faster up the hill, but I was so near the top, I kept going. The stairs didn't cause nearly so much concern, maybe because it was cooler. I may have failed to mention that I have heart trouble and two metal valves. Inclines are very hard for me to do. Stress tests are forbidden. Otherwise I'm allowed to live a normal life, and I'm not supposed to avoid exercise or housework. I just have to be aware of warning signs. That's why managing the hill and the stairs even at a snail's pace are important to me.

         I took a huge box of coats, sweaters and shoes to Good Will today. The box has been sitting in the foyer for a week. There's more cleaning and de-cluttering to do. We have been taking things out one box or bag at a time, so it's a slow process. There's an old truck we need to get rid of as well. Spring cleaning in the closets, the drawers, the garage, the yard, and the body joints. It all needs to be done.
