After 60 + years of "just winging it,"  I've decided to create an owners manual for my body.  I don't seem to be taking very good care of it and it's letting me know with a variety of aches and pains.  I've started with this blog - that's the brain food.  I'm logging my intake and out put for a week to see if there are trends.  I've made a check up appointment with my doctor and am creating a list of questions.

I've exercised and dieted before to achieve a "look."  Health as a goal was always lip service - want I really wanted was to be slim.  NOW  I want health -  GOOD HEALTH.

If you can think of questions I should ask, actions I should take, please let me know.

This is the most serious I've been.

Back - if I'm bothering you, sorry

I started this blog because I thought it would be great to be accountable to the great "out there" for a daily or almost daily journal.  I stopped because I don't seem to know how the control panel of this works and when I was posting, I was bothering some people. How they got my posts, I have no clue, but they did.   They didn't want to be bothered with my thoughts and feelings.

I'm starting again.  I need an outlet and a sounding board.  You, the big "OUT THERE" are it.  If you get this and don't want it - let me know.  Or, maybe you could just delete me and go about your day.  If you put me in your junk file or filter - I'm not insulted, actually I probably won't even know.

I need a new beginning.  My body is aging and I need a way to be accountable to keep me moving and growing and thinking so that I don't rust.  Body with rust is bad!
