OT: the daily routine (live in action)

Thought you all might like something LIVE to look at. This is part of my daily routine. The last half of this hill I climb is danged near straight up and down. Cars shift into 1st gear for it. Of course it's most doubtfull that I have copd anymore, just had a lung issue but this is how I have been dealing with it.

Hope you enjoy.

i agree with gracenme, the first hill (if if was flat) i could 't have donewalking)....count your blessing that you don't have this dx----go out and cherish the time of your life & enjoy every minute of it. (and thank your higher power for sparing you of this dx. you are a very blessed person)

Well, though I've come down on the right side of the diagnosis right now, it isn't unlikely to be in my future as I smoked for about 20 years, though I hope not and if so it's hopefully far off. I have fought off about 6 weeks of lung trouble and am still not 100% yet. Fortunately this isn't unheard of in those who quit smoking during a lung infection/bronchitis or bad chest cold. Some people take several months to get right.

Now if I can just avoid the chest cold that is making it's rounds at work, and the imbeciles who "don't want to waste their sick time" on something like.....being sick.....well, I'll be well away.
