The Art of Multi-Tasking

SIGNS OF THE TIMES

Times are marching ahead more quickly than I anticipated. I used to get down on the floor with our Golden Retrievers, Peaches and Carrie, to brush them and cuddle. Getting up was no problem. I still get down there to do some stretches and look for other things to do. Getting up is the problem.

Thanks Nora and Kit for sending me the funny ones.

I know that feeling. I avoid bending over too.

Yes, getting up off the floor does seem to be more of a challenge than it used to be~!

Too true, getting up is much harder work than it used to be.

Right there with you! I’m back swimming laps at the local pool, and if I don’t get the first lane with the stairs and have to “jump” out on my butt and do the swivel-knee bend to rise–well, let’s just say it is painful for me and not a pretty sight!

You are making me laugh! It’s not a pretty sight if you witness me trying to get up from the floor! Congrats on doing the laps though…. I think about such things but get stuck on “sedentary.” 🙂

Me, too, but then I get stuck on desperation!

You got it, Dora. It’s a sign of the times. Getting my socks on, at times, is a real pain.

It is a sad fact that I never thought would happen to me. But who would? Yoga is my only hope!

Hoo boy, I’m with you on this one. Getting down on the floor with my grandbabygirl has been an eye opener for me in more ways than one! 😉
