I have been going to the gym. I am again building up that momentum. Swimming and weight training. I really missed both which I hope means that I have made physical activity a permanent habit in my life. I have been working my way through my weight training routine and I am doing about 35-40 minutes. Swimming is at about 25 minutes, hoping today I can do 30 mins. I keep following diana nyad's blog who is getting back in the water to attempt her cuba swim again, and is 61 now. She inspires me. Saw the doc last week and I have lost 4 pounds. less fuel more movement is the key for me. sugar levels are good. I have been eating much less meat and have pretty much cut out gluten. so now no dairy and no gluten. this keeps my choices nearer to fruits and veggies. feels great. also I have been staying away from pot which feels very good. also turned of cable just doing the Netflix hulu and listening to more npr. this keeps me more active and less sedentary at home. also a good thing...

also being with Maggie feels very good. we continue to get to know one another. we have begun an intimate physical relationship. this relationship is diff on many levels. we are equals. we are both available. open hearts. I was nervous about her seeing my mastectomy but in the end it did not matter. she is a gentle and intuitive lover....tender....much laughter too.

and so I go forward with my life.
