Today I’m doing Pilates for my first time with Sarah, Lori’s trainer. I’m only doing a 30-minute session and then Lori is doing the rest of the hour. I had my annual doctor appointment yesterday, and all looks good. My doctor asked me how I was going to avoid hurting my back again and I told her I’m backing off real heavy weights and starting Pilates. She said, “that’s great”. I also told her I decided to quit a few other things like processed meats, (mainly bacon), and told her how I quit drinking the day I had a conversation with my GI doctor in Denver nine years ago. She said, “you can just quit like that once you make a decision”, to which I said yea, if I want to. She then said “Wow, that’s your superpower! Wish all my patients could do that”! I told her I’m lucky in that way, if I make up my mind to really do something, I can just do it.
Looks like a little rain this weekend. Hope the music festival doesn’t get rained out. The colors are fading fast as the leaves are dropping. In a week or so, they’ll be gone. I went to cigars yesterday to hang with the guys. I’m not smoking as I’ve mentioned, but it’s still a great time getting together.
The days are getting shorter and soon daylight savings time will be here. I thought that was going away, but I guess they haven’t made that decision yet. That’s it for today, have a great day, be well and stay safe and God Bless.
