My retina detached (more on that here) and was repaired. But impact-based exercise was off the table for an extended period. And I was unable to join my family in our annual retreat. Things could be worse.
Things could always be worse.
For the time being, I have been walking. Three miles, every other day or so, when I have the time. And that's really been nice. And it's kept me sane. And it's good for me. I follow the same path to the park, through the park and back.
When I started it took twenty minutes to walk a mile. Then it was more like eighteen.
But I have been eating whatever. Back to square one. Time to get my act together. Again.

Today I had my one month visit and was told that my retina looked "gorgeous" -- that was the word he used. I no longer must sleep only on my right side, and I may resume normal exercise, like running.
The celebrate, I bought a new pair of New Balance shoes at Second Sole. Support your local business!
