Mowing the lawn helps me feel alive. Who knew?

I mowed and trimmed our lawn yesterday afternoon.  It was hot–almost 90 degrees. But that’s normal for late June along the north coast of Florida. Ironic, since I understand two thirds of the country is facing temps much higher–some record highs?

It takes me around an hour and a half to mow and trim. Not a big deal–except I’m still lack stamina following my SCT last summer.  And I would have trouble doing much more than I did yesterday, even after resting several times along the way–and taking a bit more oxycodone and Tylenol, too.

I enjoy doing the lawn, helping Pattie around the home, taking care of the pool (I’m the cabana pool boy!) and washing dishes. Things most would consider tedious and a pain in the butt.

But for me, it reaffirms that I’m alive and able to live a near normal life.

Sore, hole-filled bones aren’t going to stop me! Nor are the nagging side effects from my ongoing consolidation chemotherapy.

It’s good to be alive! I just wanted to share that…

Feel good and keep smiling!  Pat
