Regrouping and trying again.

 I'm trying to get past the first part of this year and get back into life.   I'm pretty much done with recovery although I'm sure where I had my tooth pulled is going to feel weird for a while longer and my knees will also be artificial.  I'm not letting it stop me.  I've joined a weight loss / lifestyle change program that is available through my job and I'm trying to make some lifestyle changes.  I'm back to doing my yoga, which is the best thing ever.  Go look at Sara Beth Yoga on Youtube and do some of the beginner workouts.  I have to modify them, but they help so much with pain and stiffness.  This morning I got out and took a walk on the street.  It was very nice and peaceful.   Later today I have physical therapy so I'm getting in quite a bit of gentle exercise today and I want to be able to walk a 5K this fall (walking, not running).  

Things are going okay around here, with the current normal.   My husband and I are still working at home.  Youngest son is working at the hospital on second shift and has finally started scheduling some D&D games, which he had not done since the onset of the COVID.   Hopefully, the new issues won't end that and it will all be over soon.  Daughter is doing a dog-sitting gig this week.   We haven't gotten to talk to oldest son and daughter-in-law for a while.  They were going to call Sunday but we were at a friend's reunion all day.   We'll catch up later with them.

Editing here to add, that youngest son got a tetanus shot today for a small injury sustained at work.  This blog has been so helpful to our family to keep up with things like that, so next time it comes up, I will know the date to tell him.  Today.  :-)
