COVID challenges:
I'm sure you've had many. I have!
Like trying to breathe in those darned masks! If I didn't have trouble breathing before, I do now. 😜 But I am thankful that I CAN breathe and the air is fresh and clean. The sun is shining and it's warm in San Diego today.
Another challenge, since my gym is closed, is getting enough exercise. There are online classes but, in my current living situation, there's not much room to move. (Also, my daughter tries to videotape me when I try Zumba in the living room.) So a few yoga stretches & walking the neighborhood, is as good as it gets. Again, I'm grateful that, at 71, I'm still able to move, and enjoy it, as much as I can.
Not to complain - much - but staying away from the refrigerator has been a daily challenge. We are blessed with plenty of food, and my daughter is a fabulous cook so my fridge is like a siren calling me whenever I walk into the kitchen.
First world problems, I know, but this pandemic is challenging me and everyone, to find the silver linings in everyone of our challenges.
How are you doing with that? I'd love to hear.
I know so many are suffering immeasurably so I send out my virtual hugs, love and support to all.
Stay strong, stay safe. And continue to look for those little blessings. ❤️

Gratitude is a funny thing. In some parts of the world, somebody who gets a clean drink of water, some food, or a worn out pair of shoes can be extremely grateful. Meanwhile, somebody else who has all the necessities they need to live can be found complaining about something. What we have today is [...

Oh to have science lift us up instead of bring us down!

Summer's here and it's time to get a little wild and, yes, dirty! It's good for your health!

Dr. Jack Gilbert wants to make our hospitals dirty. His idea runs counter to hundreds of years of scientific practice. Since a surgeon named Joseph Lister became the first to use antiseptic techniq…

I know so many diet soda drinkers 😕

Strokes, dementia, brain shrinkage. Soda's doing this and more to your body…

Though our doctors can minimize symptoms, repair broken body parts, and eradicate some disease, they cannot make us healthier. We need the building blocks of life, from live plants to do that.

Researchers at Tufts University made the case that subsidized fruits and vegetables could prevent millions of cases of chronic diseases.
