freedom day

This and a hamburger 

1/2 pound, no bun. 

And now I fast till Monday. 

Snake Juice 🐍 

Read it and reap.

Sleep is #1 best thing you can do.

If you don’t have sleep, you don’t have health. 

HRV spiking up now and then. 

When I was sick last month, 

It was low. Like 1%. 

Lower than when I was in the hospital. 

Last week I was in the red. Stop. 

Then the yellow. Caution. 

Now the Green! GO! 

A Nurse friend I worked with 

Asked me why I never got married. 

She asked me about me growing up. 

We talked and talked. 

I was smart growing up, but a loner. 

Looking back on my step father’s 

treatment of me and his behavior 

(He was mean and abusive

And also crazy) 

She just graduated from Medical School. 

She said it sounded like

He had schizophrenia

With BiPolar - Dual Diagnosis. 

Well. That makes sense. 

So much random crazy manic stuff he did. 

I think she’s right. 

What a relief. 

If feels like a 50 year old mystery 

Has now been solved.

Hey! I just booked a room for a week 

In beautiful downtown Kiev! 

Now this nightmare. 

Meet my host. 

I’m not really going, of course. 

But the funds go right to her. 

Today. Expedient. 

In Ukrainian 

Her words, in English. 

It’s a good way to help.

 If you can. 

I can’t go on vacation anyways- 

So I’ll give my vacation away. 

🇺🇦 🇺🇸 🇺🇳 

Together we stand. 

Divided we fall. 

Peace out 

recovery

Blissful sleep. 

I’m getting 10 hours. 

The trade off is - I have no life. 

I literally walk in the house,

 Decompress in my room for 15 minutes,

Let the CBD kick in, 

And hit the bed. 

Clinic Days. 

Lots of walking. 

I’m finally out of the woods. 

I hope this week wasn’t 

a glimpse into my future. 

Heart issues are hard. 

I don’t want to be a COVID heart patient. 

Long Hauler. 

Monday I took a walk. 

Innocent enough, right? Wrong! 

My max heart is 158

[220 minus your age. I’m 62.]

80% (training rate) of that is 126. 

I hit and stayed at 155 too long. 

I paid for it, too. 

Never push through when you have a cold. 

I walked up hills, which hurt my leg as well. 

Looking like Planet Of The Apes here. 

after Snake Juicing last week

I’m still down 7 pounds. 

I’m going to Snake again this weekend.
