4/22/18: Aikido Master Hamster
Den of Positivity, 19.5 Weeks PO:
Today is Opening Day for little league in my town. Both kids are walking in the parade, having photos taken, & playing. I am coming down with the cold my daughter had this week during school vacation, I just got my period, and my hammies are still tight & sore from the backpack stumble I did a week ago which has set me back about a month in my progress. My in-laws are coming for the day, my wife is out shopping for groceries, and she just called from the side of the highway after witnessing a car crash in front of her. Her car was not involved, but she was shaken and scared. Miraculously, both the sun and my hormone levels rose this morning. I am going to eat breakfast, drink a lot of water, clean the living room, and move through this day with breath, like the Aikido Master Hamster I am.

4/16/18: Telling My PT
Anyone want to help me write the email I ought to send to my PT about how, after a really successful week of building my walking stamina at the track, I put my foot through my son’s backpack strap and nearly fell on my face…? I just can’t even…
4/14/18: Tripped
I just tripped over my son’s backpack in the hallway. One foot got caught in the strap and I stumbled forward onto the other foot. I think I’m okay, but my hams & adductors are hurting, I’m scared as fuck, and in these ten seconds I cannot take this bullshit anymore.
4/14/18: Words of Wisdom
“I had a fall…and it woke up a number of impairments in my body that I’d obviously been adapting to and fine with… You *can* be well if you’re not *moving* well. …Wellness doesn’t mean that you don’t have physical challenges.”
