April Showers in May

April showers bring May flowers... or, so the saying goes but it seems like Mother Nature has it ass-backwards this time...  and, according to the weather forecast for this location for the rest of the week, we are going to have rain with intermittent showers with intermittent thunder along with our rain and showers...  sometimes, I think I got my degrees transposed.

And...  so today, I am sitting out on our screened-in back porch listening to the sprinkle of the rain as I wind-down from my 60 minute exercise routine of peddling for 20 minutes, walking for 1/2 mile, peddling for another 20 minutes and walking for another 1/2 mile that all total burns around 350 calories which is not even half the calories that are embedded in a CINNABON in case you were wonder which I have eaten two of this week and wish that I had eaten none.  WHY? 
Because, when "I" start eating that crap, I cannot stop and eat all kinds of other crap which is not good for me either for some reason...  it is like one is a trigger for the other... 

I decided that if I exercise every other day that I can achieve the same results as exercising for 5 days straight and taking 1-2 off and put less stress on my body which in turn will allow me to be not just more consistent but more determined with my exercising, psychologically enabling me to continue this for the long term...  or, at least until something medically causes me suspend this routine.

My body has been a little fickle in how it has responded to cancer treatments.
