Sunday Serenity #101

I have misplaced my camera's USB cord and thus can't get the pics I took of my mini-tramp off the camera. So when I saw this on LOLcats I thought I'd substitute it. I had a good, vigorous workout on Saturday afternoon--over forty minutes with ten of them involving lifting my knees nearly to hip level. The effect was that of climbing stairs. I can't do that yet without keeping my hand on a something grounded like the handle of the BBQ on the porch. But a month ago I couldn't lift my feet clear of the surface at all without starting to teeter. So huge progress!

It even started to sprinkle almost immediately after I got out to the porch but I persevered. The cloud burst held off until I stepped off the tramp nearly forty minutes after stepping on. I find the warm-up and cool-down minutes durning which I gently sway from side to side very soothing, invoking serenity. If it hadn't been raining I might have continued the cool-down another fifteen minutes. I'm looking forward to another session this afternoon.
