Welcome note

When my husband and I set out to find and take pictures of wheelchair accessible waterfalls in every U.S. state, we were excited about the challenge. We gave ourselves no time limit to accomplish our feat; however, we had one mutually agreed upon rule that dictated how long we would stay in any given area. That rule was to never shiver again. Needless to say, adhering to this rule presented a new challenge. The new challenge was to find a waterfall that was actually flowing. Visiting mid-west and eastern states during months that prevented us from shivering are the same months that are hot enough to dry up streams; hence, little or no water flow for waterfalls. The natural scenery and picturesque landscapes warrant a second visit in the early spring right after the snow melts.

Who's tired?...

I think I need to re-evaluate who's the one putting up the excuses not to exercise, Bob or me. By 5pm, I'm ready to go to bed. Have you every seen a picture of a battery that shows how much battery-life is left? By 5pm, my battery-life is well into the "red" zone. It's easy for me to command Bob to exercise, and then, sit back to watch or count repetitions. :-/

I think the country song that says, "I need a vacation from my life" applies to me right now. It might be called "burned" out. Yeah, that's it. It always feels better when you put a label to how you feel.

Bob is moving right along. You know, at one point, I read that after six to eight months of a stroke recovery progression is so slow that on might think that the top level of recovery has been met, and that is it. But, with Bob, I still see recovery progressing everyday.

Bob did the memory games on mymsmyway.com. He moved up a level; whereas, last week he had a difficult time remember what he was supposed to do on the pre-beginner level. woo-hoo!
