Daria, this is such good information, thank you! I've been away from Substack for a bit and look forward to going back and reading your posts that I missed!

Thank you Cherie. I've missed you! I hope at least some of your time away involved spending some time with your new grandchild.

It did, and it was WONDERFUL! But then there was also a funeral for a brother-in-law which was both hard and also good to see some family in Wisconsin. All in all, exhausting. But I’m allowing myself time to recover. Thanks, Daria!

I'm sorry for your loss, Cherie.

Physical strength is so important that mental well-being follows. Your post is coming in such great timing. I've signed up for the gym for 12 months for physical strength. I was given six weeks of exercises to follow twice a week. Apparently, I'm only 4% away from the six-pack. But that is not the aim; the aim is to feel stronger in my body and, as a result, in my mind. Thanks for the reminder of how important it is to take care of our bodies in preparation for the future.

It sounds like you're off to a great start, Jana. Taking the first step can be the hardest part, and you've nailed that!
