Veteran's Day....



Recommended Posts

43 Years ago.....seems like a long time...but yet some things never go away no matter how long it's been....

So today, I'll take all that in, add a little of the old PTSD that also never quite goes completley away, go to the Gym at 5am, then off to work....all that and $3 will get me a double espresso today....

But wait...that's what I do everyday, so for me, today is no different....nobody asks a Vet what they think of Veteran's Day....

There is NO WAY to say thank you for what you have done for our country. I'm deeply sorry that you feel the way you do about Veteran's Day. It should be your favorite day of the year...a day you are treated like the hero you are. I wish there was something I could do, and if there is, PLEASE tell me what it is!

Just know that there are those of us who are truly thankful for your brave service and sacrifice. I hope you enjoy the day as much as you can.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
