Default "Use It Or Lose It!"

What's that mean?
Your finger? Toe? Hip? Knee? Brain?

Yep. All those things, and everything that you "live in", / Your Carcass!

That's how I explain me. I am NOT my Carcass, yet, I am for this short time on Earth, I AM stuck inside this "Imperfect" Carcass!

So, we Pile it up occasional.(Accident) Right? That's why we prefer "Big cars".
Detroit Iron.

But, there's always someone with "Bigger".

You can try to GTheckOutta the way! But, sometimes, you just can't!

What then? Some of us die. Some of us are just injured, for a week/month/year/s.
Life.
I and like many of you, are lifers.

"Use It Or Lose It"!

It means, no matter what hurts, don't "Park" the rest of your carcass!
Move it, exercise it, but, certainly USE IT!

I've been here for about 6-8 months. I'm really tired of the same question.
OMG! It's gone from my little toe, to my big toe!!
To my Ankle! To my Eyelash!!!
Then, right to my ***!
Well, if you've done your reading, what did you think it was gonna do?
Now, you got it in your foot and ***, what's gonna happen next if you sit on that sofa?
(Yea, your knee, then you'll have a VERY EXPENSIVE AND EXASPERATING LEG!)
Move your ***!
Every Day, No elevators!
STAIRS!
Walk at least a few blocks a day!
Carry your milk home! IN PAIN!
Whatever you can do, to add to your exercise.
PAIN WILL MAKE YOU TIRED< YOU"LL SLEEP!

Here's my next Favorite.
(I have it too, just like the above)...

I can't sleep right! Something's crapped up with my sleep!
OMG!

Well, One guess why that is?
And, you're right again!
Not enough Exercise!!

Walk to the store for a half gallon of milk, and a half of OJ! (NOT JUNK FOOD!)
The longer the better! (within reason).

If you don't burn your calories, then all you need, is a very small bowl of Oatmeal / day!
Other than that, you're just gonna pack on the pounds, especially with the Meds we're taking!

Oh, and there's my last one....
STOP TAKING SO MANY FRIGGIN; MEDS!
Don't need them all, All the time!

Take it easy, move around, and move Everything!
BE TIRED when you go to bed!
(Ask your Dr. for a Minimum amount!) Isn't that, after all, the goal??


Now, I'm a realist also.
I know we cannot always do this.
BUT AND HOWEVER> We can't come running here, or to our doctors
because WE've MISMANAGED OUR,

CARCASS / EXERCISE / SLEEP / MEDS.!
Right?

This is OUR RESPONSIBILITY!

To keep our selves, "Right"!

Yes, we get "off the tracks occasional, and either we know what happened, (exercise that brain!), or,
call the doc!
Just think, of what you've done the past few days/week, that has gotten you off track?

For instance, Last Friday, a week ago, I visited my attorney. Hour and a half away, one way, who holds my entire
life in his hands (sorta). A half hour meeting settled me down, but, I've slept for the past week..
Who's fault?
Mine! I should have know it would do that!
I know my "Carcass" by now! Call it your "Body" or what ever you want.
But, you know by now, how it'll behave.

Then, we'll advance the cause here I do believe!
And, Hope and pray for!

BE well, to all!

Hope Everyone had a Spectacular Thanksgiving, no matter what, or nothing that you did!
