Progress

I got this bright idea yesterday that maybe I could do PFTs today and not go to see the doctor next week with my daughter in her pjs first thing in the morning. It was a long shot but it doesn't hurt to ask. So, I called and I waited. This morning, I got a call that I could do PFTs at 11 and if the results were positive, I could take a two week break from visiting the doctor office. If not, I could just keep my appointment as planned.

We have had a busy week around here so I wasn't too sure if this was really such a good idea. My daughter and I hurried to get ready and postponed our plans until later in the day. The results were 5% of increased lung capacity. It might not sound so impressive. It isn't double digits or anything but I have found that lung capacity only falls double digits. It rarely ever goes up and certainly very slow at least for me. This charts territory that we haven't seen since November 2009. I was told that it is reflective of exercise.

So, you will find me at water aerobics tomorrow and yoga on Sunday. By Tuesday, I will be back at the trainer. Please don't take it personally if I sound a little crazy about exercise. Progress is slow but it sure makes for a beautiful graph. I am also motivated by lunch with Cinderella in a few weeks. My daughter picked up her matching dress today and asked why we couldn't get one for me too. Now, that would be a sight to see!

Blessings,

Cindy
