At 7:50 am Wednesday was able to keep an appointment with dermatologist that had been cancelled because of the birth of our grandson in early December. What I had thought was a minor, superficial procedure became a slightly "big deal", inner stitches, at least 6 outer ones on my front neck. Instructions to not stretch, not exercise for a week........... So, there goes zumba, weight lifting etc. Wake up nights and morning realizing that I've been in uncomfortable positions.... First dressing change tomorrow morning, stitches out next Wednesday and then back to normal.... I WILL attend contra dancing, weather permitting. It snowed and rained both off and on today...
So, watched a YouTube video by Norm Shealy about the benefits of bouncing for one minute each hour. Should be a good break from sitting at the computer :-) He suggests jumping, but that just the gentle bounce helps lymph system and everything also, and, it's good for all ages to do. So, I'm bouncing as tolerated....
