a tisket a tasket

my current exercise regime fits right in to my life style / actually it IS my life style :

running up and down stairs to "do glass" (id est fire the kiln / monitor its performance) / must not touch the walls when i go up and down (no railings so no holding on) good for balance (at my age) heh

thumb strengthening via DreamBoat's door opening buttons that you have to push REAL HARD

(i can feel the progress)

( something something about one's will in one's thumb / hmm / a little research in order )

weight lifting : i shop with a basket / i have different size baskets for different types of shopping / like a lot or a little ? the basket needs to fit on the shelf of the scanners at the Shifty MarkUp / when the basket is full i stop shopping / i have to be able to carry the basket back out to the car with one hand/arm

sidebar: the check out ladies and the baggers love the diversion i bring to them with my basket / i get 5cents off for not using a bag / heh / at first a couple of the baggers were nonplussed to see that everything needed to go back into the basket / they are so used to bags

a challenge !

the grok it

so now my hands and arms are pretty strong again / a few years ago i noticed my hands which have always been quick and nimble from so much knitting weaving all that blah blah were a bit stiff and so i do hand exercises called typing on this keyboard, chopping onions, smile, you know what i mean

incontinence preventive exercise ; stop in mid-stream / hold it / let it go / hold again ~~~ do this when you think of it / incontinence is not confined to the elderly / it sure is a drag to be a grown up who wets her pants

on that note ~~~~~~~~
