THRIVING THURSDAY

 

As usual I am joining Brenda Youngerman for Pondering with a Purpose:

Today's prompt is: Flexible

I find my self being much more flexible these days. I think being retired allows me to make changes on a daily basis. I no longer follow a schedule per say so I can get up when I am not tired and go to bed when I am. Other than the cruises we have planned for the rest of the year we are available.

I need to be more flexible with my body. When I put my knee out in January I thought I would never dance again. Thanks to the aquafit and sit and be fit on the cruise I have managed to get my knee working again. I have signed up for classes that will start at the end of the month and I hope I can maintain my flexibility.

so sorry about the knee....but I am sure you will be up and dancing in no time.... and our bodies do really need flexibility.

Thanks for pondering with me!

Yes, our bodies definitely need flexibility. I need to work on mine - been claiming a "sympathy pregnancy" for the past few months and now I can't use that excuse anymore.

I am now semi retired--and loving it. However in order to pay the bills I will have to get another part time job. And it does seem as we get older aches and pains become more frequent--right niw I am having trouble with my shoulder--not sure if exercise would help it or hurt it more.

Sometimes the physical part of getting older kind of sucks. I would love to do a cartwheel!!

I hope your knee will be better real soon. It is good to be flexible as it makes life less stressful.

Glad to hear that the mobility is coming back to your knee. I know how debilitating that can be. I'm sure you'll enjoy the ability to dance doubly now.

Glad to hear your knee is much better! My grandmother went through two knee surgeries so I saw the pain/discomfort up close....great perspective on retirement :)
