Health

I saw this story awhile back and so it started a discussion between me and my daughter. I asked her how she puts silverware in the dishwasher. She said handle down. I asked her why? She didn't really have a reason. It's just how she did it.

We are looking for any possible way in 2020 to help us out. Maybe we are looking to lose weight. Maybe we really need to find a way to make a little extra money. Maybe our biggest issue is stress. This year has brought a lot of hurdles our way.

It is hard to escape the season without catching a cold. Even if it is just for a day or two those days can feel bad. You want relief as soon as you possibly can. You just want to feel better.

Do you normally get a flu shot? I will be the first to say that I have not in years. I am pretty sure that I will be getting mine this year. I mean on top of concerns of getting the actual flu this year we also have to worry about covid too. All at the same time.

I have a daily ritual. I get up in the morning and head into the bathroom. I put in my contacts I can see and before I get dressed for the day I want to see how much I weigh. I know that weight can fluctuate throughout the week.

Who would have thought that when we started 2020 that not only would we have new words in our vocabulary. You know like social distancing, covid, maskne. We also had to deal with new conditions too.

Maybe you were not one of those who took the early part of the year to start healthier habits. I get it. It was a weird time. We didn't know what was going to come next. Some people lost jobs that they have had forever.

I guess if you want to be that half glass full kind of person you have to realize that all this covid talk has brought us some good things. We have finally had the time to slow down a bit. We also got to spend more time with our family.

We have known for a long time that this election was going to be interesting, to say the least. It definitely has. We have seen temper tantrums, interesting looks being given back and forth, and a fly.

So we know that when we get exercise we really do feel so much better. Most of the time we experience that surge of energy and happiness right after we are done working out. We feel accomplished.

Have you been taking the time to go to the dentist like you are supposed to? Do you go every six months? How about during this Pandemic. Have you made sure you kept your mouth health up to par?

Looking at the calendar and seeing we about halfway through October now we know winter is just around the corner. Is the thought of laying in bed all snug as a bug seem like a dream right now. Oh how good that feels.
