Warmer Weather / H2o Walking / ...

warmer weather and water walking 2x this week has led to happier "me". i am also taping my arthritic feet and i canNOT believe how much it has helped to just tape them at night. wow. i watched 2 pts share on youtube how to tape and the reason why... it has made a world of difference... and that helps the gripey mood as well.... 


when just the act of walking is very painful... then it sure makes for a crappy mood... 


and water walking has been heavenly. i have gone 3x now and one day we were cancelled b/c of lightening... so just 2x is all i have done. or maybe it is 3.. i do not remember. i just know it feels wonderful to move my legs and feet and there be NO PAIN. it is wonderful wonderful wonderful. i am a water sign... so i am at home in or neat water... really is bad for this desert rat. 


so now i am not near as worried about my feet bc i was getting very concerned ... but ten days w/o my meds and yoga.. i can't believe how much it helps me. i never did realize how much those 2 things really help the RA. wow. 


warmer weather ... ahhhh... so nice to ride around town w/ the window on the car down and w/ no bulky clothes and clinching muscles against the cold. i love this weather. we have sat outside some but it just makes for such a better day. i am so connected to the weather. almost TOO much influenced by the weather... 


guess it is good that i live in the desert bc i do love sunshine w/o humidity... 


good week... and yes, it is just monday. but maybe by this weekend i will decide whether to travel to ama to get a songbook for uke beginners or not. might need the "outing".

Despite the inconvenient moments, I love blaming everything, good, bad or indifferent, on the weather. It keeps me noticing that life is bigger than the puppet shows in my head.

Water play gets my vote as the best exercise available. It exercises ALL your muscles without stressing any of them.
