I didn't own my own computer until even later. Quite a bit later. But now I cannot imagine life without it

I went water walking today for 75 minutes but then realized that I should not engage in walking, even in water, without clearance from the podiatrist. So I wrote to him, asking about the activity.

I also did some incidental walking on land and my exercise duration for today is already 2 hrs 21 minutes, and the day is not over yet. I need to do grocery shopping.

3 sets of Australian exercises today! And I feel strong doing them now, and they are increasing in challenge level.

My biopsy is tomorrow. If this is cancer and I undergo surgery, then most likely I will be put on tamoxifen for at least 5 years to starve whatever cancer cells that remain. Tamoxifen has many nasty side effects, but it's benefits outweigh those for most women. One of the side effects I fear is vaginal atrophy and pelvic floor exercises were listed as one of the ways to prevent or counteract that. Knowing about their benefit, I now do my Australian exercises with renewed vigor.
