object lessons

Hey sistah-friends! Hope everyone's doing well, or well enough, this week, with colds and changes of venue etc. I'm in Des Moines at the moment -- my mom had knee replacement surgery yesterday, so I'm here for support, moral and otherwise. Surgery went well and she seems to be rehabbing as expected so far, but the whole thing is a useful object lesson: namely, it's better to keep your original joints if you can! And exercise will help us do that. So, for the moment I'm just walking hospital corridors etc., but the whole experience is just more support for Beth's point that a strong, healthy body is the wisest goal we could have. Keep the faith, bloggercizers!
