On my morning walk,
a few days after moving ashore
(after 20 years on our boat)
I noticed something interesting:
Where did my morning stiffness go?
I always suspected that living on the water
wasn't really healthy,
the confinement alone
is akin to enforced bed rest.
You sit in one spot,
and move (at best)
a few feet away-
and back.
My (blog invisible) husband
experienced the same thing!
Where did morning's aches GO?
I'm remembering what it's like
to have a kitchen,
flush bathroom,
a real bed - not a 'bunk'
room to breathe!
So it got me thinking:
When is a home
bad for your health?
Is there radon, or pollution?
Are the neighbors - or extreme weather
stressful?
What about the local economy?
Are you financially over-extended
to pay for it?
Or is it SO modest
that you feel jailed
and held back?
(Formerly Boat) Kitty
is begging for less treats.
I've noticed a slackening
in some of my own cravings too.
I feel upbeat,
healthy and young here.
Is YOUR home healing
or hurting
Y O U?
Makes you wonder.
