Hooray for the Olympics!

What I like most about the Olympics is watching people doing absolutely amazing things with their bodies and then saying, "I can do that."  I can't, but it doesn't stop me from saying that.  I like to watch free running and Chinese martial arts movies for the same reason.  Hockey... not so much.

The truth is that old age has set in with a vengeance.  I tell myself that if I hadn't gotten fibromyalgia that things would be different, but I wonder.  I do like to take walks down to the beach, so I'm not totally sedentary.  Well, actually, I don't get as many chances to be sedentary as I might like.  Even though Momo does most of the heavy work of lifting papa, I am still up plenty running around getting him things, cooking for him, doing a ton of laundry etc.  Tonight we have family coming in from out of town, so Momo gave me a real day off yesterday.  Mostly I slept.  But the kids will arrive tonight and tomorrow we'll go to the beach to see the Dragon Races.
