My mantra for getting through my walk today. (I was tired from ?? and hot...and hott because I stripped down to my tank top)

Oh! The mantra: "Take care of your body and it might take care of you."

I put the 'might' in there. No guarantees in this life.

@4d3fect

Yes.

Hoping it increases the odds I don't get dementia like my Mom and Gram though.

@LikeItOrLumpIt Both of my parents got it but other health issues got them in the end. My last few GP appointments subjected me to the (common?) indignity of having to draw a clock, state the date, memorize a few items... "Have you fallen lately?" &c.

@4d3fect

Did you have concerns?

I sort of have a mini freak out if I forget something or use a wrong word, because of my fam history.

@LikeItOrLumpIt Plenty. I've already mostly automated all the financial stuff, family trust, beneficiaries lined up. Haven't gone to the effort of clearing out the garage. We have a dinky little house anyway so not a monumental task to dispose of the estate. IDK. Spending as much time with the grandson as possible while we all can enjoy it.

@4d3fect

All the more reason to enjoy the present as much as you can and yes, spending time with ppl who love you.

@LikeItOrLumpIt hawt 🔥 it's a little early in the season for so much abundance. I worry about your neighbors with compromised cardio. 🤭
