Yesterday we unloaded furniture and filled an apartment with boxes.
In the midst of all this, I have to think back less than five years. At that point, my knees were in bad shape. I was about to have total knee replacement surgery. I could barely walk around the block.
The surgery was successful. The legs were no longer bow-legged. Nor was there the constant pain of arthritis.
The one catch? Keep on exercising or you will lose the mobility. So, I have kept on exercising. I try each day to spend 20 minutes on a stationary bike. I enjoy fun times with children and youth. As I come to the end of the day I am thankful for all I have been able to do.
And so, yesterday, I was in and out of the trailer. I was not winded, nor is my body feeling overly tired today. Of course, I used a wheeler and made sure I took trips back and forth with a judicious amount of weight – nothing too heavy.
Some common sense along with continued exercise meant yesterday was enjoyable!
