Firmly believing that each day is something that can make a difference.
You have to impose that mindset as many athletes do with reaching a goal. I knew that once I had things in place I would then get back to the gym and merge with others as well as rekindle what I did before. I called in to the gym and I started my training again. Not hard, just working out for twenty minutes and then thereafter stretching and sitting in a wet sauna for half an hour. The people are nice and I new how much I had lost as far as my cardio, muscles around the joints. My intention is to get the circulation going while training just a tad. Without pushing it.
Getting in there was not the same as the gym back in Saskatoon, but it was a gym that had all the amenities as well as a variety of people that gave way to something I enjoy. First time there, and the administration of the place was really nice. As well as the a few people that I had that small chit chat while taking in a steam.
Where am I going? I am going forward in a manner with cadence and once again I have taken on a challenge. As well, since I have this new computer, I thought rather than just do one thing, I set out to write something within no blog, my own thoughts and the story that I have lived thus far. I am not sure, but I find that in doing so, it's something that has some value. Tomorrow I will be back in the gym, thereafter heading if all goes well to the main stadium here where the common wealth games are being played. And then I am going to build a shelving unit along with a friend.
I am not pushing it, I am just approaching things in an enabling way. This evening I arrived home and I wanted to head out get some late night take some photographs. When the time is right within the one of these days I will be able to head out to one place in particular that has given me the option to go in and take some pictures here within the Air Force Base.
As well, as the Aikido group, which I am a part of, has kept requesting my return. I will have to get on the telephone and tell them that I am prioritizing things right now. All I can see movement and a few others offline can as well, and I have done this before and will do this again.

can't agree more...
ReplyDeletejack..is this picture recent?
you kneel..
This was taken 4 hours ago. And yes I am kneeling...
ReplyDeletethat's great..
ReplyDeleteyou are still in good shape..
:D
Yes, I am not in tremendously bad shape, I but I am having a surgery with my knees. :) I am not bed ridden...
ReplyDeletei am not saying you are bed-ridden...
ReplyDeletei think people with bad knees can't bend them...that's all..
sorry...
It's all good I did not think that you were saying that. Not at all...:)
ReplyDeleteG'day Jack,
ReplyDeleteI do very much like those two photos, enjoy your weekend, hopefully in the sunshine
If I stay knelt down very long, I have trouble getting up, the guys at work tell me thats from being old. My M-I-L had a procedure on one of her knees last year, she handled it fairly well, cept the part keeping it elevated. I will keep you in prayer. GOD bless you my friend.

I too have been having problems with my knees too recently. After standing on them at work for almost twenty yrs was not a good thing so I can relate to what you are saying. I know a couple of people who had their knees done and it has worked wonders for them. Hoping the same for you my dear friend
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Scott!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYour mother in law huh? Well it's all good, and it happens most importantly I don't have a new paper delivery and I do have a coffee at hand and then I am off to the gym.
Thank you and once again - your not growing older your growing ahead! H.....Birthday.....

ReplyDeleteI am sorry to hear that Toni - I hope that it works out there is neuro pathic pain and then real pain - regardless it's something we maneover around with in a manner that is fitting.
Day Two at the gym as well as met up with my brother that lives 45 minutes away.
I have and you have a tremendous way of writing something Wendy when you do it. I am sure that anyone and everyone would enjoy it when they read what you write - poetry that is.
ReplyDeleteThe day was good today I carreed out all that I wished to do and now it's evering here and I just got finished talking to the neighbour next door that was explaining to me the difference between tai chi and this other thing that many chinese people do in the back park from my home.
Meanwhile - I do ache a tad, but the 10am I was in the gym and I think I know what I am doing with this cadence, mind you it was good and the sun was there today and I enjoyed the time to merge with some new people. Met a few and come late afternoon I knew that I had pushed it more than I should have - but no pain no gain.
I heard that "no pain, no gain" was a fallacy. Maybe you should check that out. I am so out of shape and whacked that people wonder why I don't have any real problems. I do nothing right according to the gym nazis and yet am busy all day so am active continually.
ReplyDeleteYou must know what your needs are, so good for you. I read your blog carefully before I accepted your invitation to be a blog-friend. I sensed that you are a person of integrity and could be interesting to know more about. You now have my confusing background and heritage. I would like to know yours. However, I guess the main point is that my two sons are 5th generation Canadians and they have had 2 kids each who are 6th generation Canadians. So I question now why they even have those racist questions on the government surveys every 5 years. I have always just wanted to print Canadian when they ask for background country culture etc. but I usually check Irish as it is the culture that was most despised when the country was opening up. I guess I like being the underdog.
krunn I am valid, I don't chat, I enjoy this and I believe that there is something called a collaboration of thoughts. Some do, some don't. But within the write we do show some of the spirit of whom we are.
ReplyDeleteIt's my blog, I visit others, but it's about the thoughts we have in a mature manner. Along with so much more.
But it's all done with good taste from this end.
Why are you blogging if you don't want to have any inter-action with the people who are interested in you??????? I may have to back out of this site as I am spending too much time, in my brain, trying to figure out what YOU need. I need nothing from this site except commisseration and humour about life.
