Pushing Myself

Today I pushed myself physically, doing quite a bit more than this sixty-eight year old, disabled body is used to - good for me! I did some cleaning, walked down to the lake near our new home and did some yard work. Before becoming disabled, when performing physical activity my muscles would get tired but felt like they were working smoothly together. At this point my muscles always feel like they are quarreling with each other, more so when they get tired. Taking the physical activity and combining it with the fear and pain I have talked about recently, the result is that I am drained and exhausted - time to rest.
