Plantar Fasciitis exercises

Image
 I thought my roll my foot around a small hand weight and do some hamstring stretches had a handle on PF--until I started latest version of PT. I want a nubbly ball to carry around for emergency attention. 4:?? hours of sleep. I got a lot of laundry done last night and even got to bed at a reasonable hour but had to get up, eat a banana, and grab an ibuprofen to deal with leg cramps. Then I woke up a second time, ate some of my porridge and finally got up after the third wakeup. Biggest excitement: phone calls and dishwashing plus NPR. Can we say motivational calamity?

Danger tour

 For people who don't have enough drama in their daily lives 5:?? hours of sleep. Day started with another dang power outage. If I had put my CPAP mask back on when I went back to bed, I would have slept better, but total hours not bad.

Seated hip and leg exercises

 A couple I already do. I will add a couple especially on days I don't work with resistance bands 4:08 hours of sleep. GO TO BED earlier. DUH. I finally got my Mushroom barley soup made. Now other to-dos

Reviving a Scottish valley

 More ecological renewal to distract myself from --earthquake in Venezuela --wild fires, heat waves, earthquakes and possible volcanic eruptions elsewhere 4:08 hours of sleep. Thankfully it's COOL these days so sleeping is easier. Eating pasta Salad at 9 pm was a better idea than I initially imagined. Or maybe it was the exercise bicycle on top of much hither and thither yesterday. Today not enough exercise but a great focus group about the future of ACB. Now I just have to write up my thoughts. But first,  --MUST do RLDT to-do's --Must get out invites to the after the party party --must read PQAC stuff --must read digital equity stuff. --Hopefully must also make soup. Must Must Must

Bygone Woolworths lunch counter menu items

 Liverwurst sandwiches? Utterly quaint. I do not remember any of these options from the Woolworth's of my childhood. I have also kind of outgrown liverwurst. Too many nitrites, though if offered a sandwish with lettuce and onion and mustard, I could do worse. 5:06 hours of sleep. Up "early" for me and on time for eye appointment but they were running over an hour late. Also doctor I have not seen for awhile was subbing and paying attention to things that have been noted multiple times but that are low level so it is not obvious that anything should be done about them. I have a sense from who else had long delays that there is a certain work slowdown for certain patients

Beans explained

Image
 WHO KNEW: beans prepared improperly can be DANGEROUS. 6:06 hours of sleep. Whole PT regimen. A lot of cleaning: swiffer mopped about half the floor grime. Work STILL needed. Also made black bean omelet for several days. Trying to herd together some thoughts about #USA250. Brain, sentiments all over the place.

SWAMP carbon!

Fascinating.  6:?? hours of blessed sleep. I woke up way too dry mouthed because CPAP ran out of water, but...
