Guess I'll stop writing in this blog. What difference does it make if I write or don't write?

April Fool! Actually, I just noticed that I've been making nearly daily postings for just over a year now. And, more to come!

Here's an April Fool's Day Meditation--

Since everything is but an apparition,
Perfect in being what it is,
Having nothing to do with good or bad,
Acceptance or rejection
You might as well burst out laughing!

Missed posting yesterday. Not sure why, but just didn't get around to writing anything yesterday. I finished the Coates' book of stories, watched a movie (Naked Gun--NG 2.5 is better), read some other stuff, and did all the regular stuff. Walked in between the many rainfalls that came yesterday. Tried to keep warm from the winter winds.

Keep craving food, but nothing in particular. Perhaps something sweet. Feeling antsy. Ready for something different, something new. What? No clear idea. Just flipping and flopping like a fish.

Change the clocks tonight! Spring forward! I'm ready to spring, but not sure where or in what direction.

Got my blood tests back (for my nutrition plan). Everything is "normal" except for cholesterol (ratio OK, LDL a little high, HDL a little high [good], triglycerides a bit high). Otherwise all other (50 factors) are within normal ranges. If I'm so healthy, why am I not?

Picked up some other books from library--Lance Armstrong's biography, a sherpa's story of him contacting his father's spirit in the high peaks, and a set of stories by an Asian author that look intriguing (will report after I read). Have already read about 1/3 of Armstrong's book--very well done--amazing what he faced and overcame.

Got a call from P yesterday prompting me to get back to dancing. Want to do so, but find my energy low by the time dancing begins. Like last night--it was rainy, cold, and I was not up to going. Same tonight! Didn't take a nap today so starting to fade some as the evening approaches. What would I do if I were Lance? Jump on a bike and do several hours of riding--that's what he did. Soon. Soon. Been here a month now. Time to start doing a bit more each day--along with resting as needed. Time to get moving more!
