Birthday reflections

[ceri]

Still no clue as to what had me bogged down or why it cleared, but I walked just about exactly 3.5 miles today, and that's the longest in about a month. And I enjoyed it. Furthermore, just as I've been expecting and hoping, my gait has opened up about an inch since spring—that's the results of regular exercise and weight loss letting my hips and thighs behave better. I'd like to get two more inches over the next year or two; that'd be suitable for my height.

Furthermore, I spent time surrounded by other people, and didn't feel disoriented or thrown by the crowd. I don't actually feel any more mental quickness than I have lately, but it was there when I needed it.

I take all of these as good signs.
