A Hiking Story

I decided to travel to my local park this afternoon to relax and have fun for a few hours. I tried something new while there. I decided to try the water bike for 30 mnutes by myself. It is a bike built for two. I had trouble with it from the beginning. I did have fun with it after I finally got the hang of it. I also went on a hike. I did come across one insensitive woman while on the trail. She told me to lose weight. Like that would happen so easy. She did not know my medical condition, and she probably thought I was just fat. I have a lot of water weight. Overall, I had a great time.

Medical Rantings and More

I have been in slight pain all day today in my right shoulder. It did not stop me from finishing my fourth book this afternoon. I decided having all of my challenges that I would not let my medical conditions stop me from writing or my volunteer work. I enjoy being a volunteer parent educator helping parents of newly diagnosed children find the resources they need to help their children. I have been doing it for almost fourteen years, and I love doing every minute of it. It always feels great helping other people in life find the resources they need.
