Walking numbers and other stuff @ 11:10 pm

Tags:

march 31: 6000 steps, 3.03 miles
april 2: 6842 steps, 3.45 miles
april 4: 9892 steps, 4.995 miles

n mentioned the other night that i look thinner. i think that the upper hip/lower back area where a muffin top could form has slimmed down. that's a benefit of walking that i haven't focused on, have just really been trying to work on upping the seratonin levels in my brain, and also having evening talk time with my partner.

let's see, what else do i know?

this.

when you are depressed, you think 10x as much, but write much less. i guess i should say "i" there, because that's what's true for me.

that said, i shall make more effort here, as i am working on getting some of the other things i need to tackle the chemical imbalances in me, and having a good personal writing habit will feed me too.

however, the sleep has been the most important thing.

Aw. So nice to see you back here honey and sorry you've been wrestling the black dog... Walking is totally great and has helped me so much with mine. Must have been a super wise person who first suggested that to me I should think. Let's talk soon, on the phone. I'd really like that. Big love and squeezy hugs on you!

thank you, dahlink. chemistry in the brain is so delicate, ain't it? ebb and flow, ebb and flow.

has been scary that the walking hasn't been helping me much at all, but the missing piece was the sleep. so, in combo, i might come up "normal" some time in the near future! or as normal as i'm gonna get.

glad that the walks are helping your brainbox. musta been a fabulous friend who turned you onto it. ;D

yes, let's do chat soon -- perhaps after my mil leaves? monday is her last day here.

much love back on ya.
