I’m learning to work with

and around myself. 

It’s been two weeks now,

that’s fourteen days –

fourteen days, but who’s counting?

Me.

I count.

It doesn’t matter that I’m starting late.

It doesn’t matter that friends started long ago.

It doesn’t matter that I’m lazy still.

What matters is it’s been two weeks

and I carry (and am being carried) on.

( I give thanks to all who have offered encouragement and support on this fitness journey. A shout out goes to Dennis Ference for reminding me that I am being carried even as I carry on. As I wrote “carry on” I could just see the glee on my kids and grandkids face as they nudge each other and say, “Yep, Gaba. You really do know how to carry on.”
