Hello Fellow Travelers!
As I figuratively bounce though my day, I check in periodically with some old friends in the West. Two of them (a male and female) both have summer houses and vacation overseas.
I always thought Leavenworth was a supermax prison in Kansas, but I've learned that there is a quaint Germanish village in Washington with the same name where people (some) vacation! Who knew?
My best girlfriend is taking her family to Japan! The closest I'll ever get to "The Land of the Rising Sun" is a pink, Kate Spade, Cherry Blossom purse I found on EBay!
And I liked that primarily because it reminds me of a spring cookie!
What am I, the cancer free, doing?
I'm so glad you asked!
I'll tell you what I'm not doing:
I'm not going overseas and I'm not going to our summer house.
I am writing and working out. And writing some more. Then working out again.
I practice standing a lot. Just standing! And it's really hard!
And I'm searching, always searching for neuroplasticity.
There is no end to the work I have to do to attain "muscle memory". For those of you keeping score at home, "muscle memory" is teaching the muscles themselves through repetition. Performing the same movement, the same way hundreds or thousands of times.
The PS monitors everything I consume, and, as a direct consequence, I'm continuing to lose weight. I'm also hungry all the time! When I get too hungry, I go to the gym.
Where I lift weights and watch "The Food Network" (I still watch"Cupcake Wars", all the sugar, without any of the calories! Or mess!)
Between trips to the gym, and biking many miles to nowhere I look at cookie-shaped accessories online. And, not surprisingly, there are many websites devoted entirely to selling round and circular objects.
There's a lot of hunger out there! And plenty of people happy to sell you anything to feed that hunger, how "American" is that?
Anyway, as readers already know, I'm only interested in things that work, that move me forward.
I have no interest in anything that doesn't positively impact me in some way, no matter how small the impact might be.
I believe my stubborn refusal to accept cancer/brain tumor contributed to being successful in remaining cancer-free, year after year
I'll keep looking for neuroplasticity, working even harder to walk. Someday, I hope to be in some exotic locale sipping something equally exotic (but still Sugar Free) with my friend. Hope. That's all I need!

Thanks for the photo of Leavenworth WA, what a Christmas perfection, better than Thomas Kincaid! And not crowded.Abigail got to do similar snow bank sledding at
ReplyDeleteThe Resort at Squaw Valley a few weeks ago, the kids loved it.
But not a place you can live there!!
