" to zero in on. Mrs. Jim and I both have osteopenia. Each of our doctors has us taking 1500-1800 units of Calcium and Vitamin D3 2000 mgs. Besides that I am on Prolia. In December 2011 I developed a crushed vertabrae. I have had it repaired by a bone graft cement injection which has to be done while the break is fresh.<br />..Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982249173214655060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7752479985637652884.post-1313910742054589812013-10-22T13:42:57.279-04:002013-10-22T13:42:57.279-04:00Great post Diane.

That may just be the "drug" that you need to ward off SAD. Mother Nature, to me, is the best medicine. Even in the cold, dark days of winter. The snow can be beautiful! And when it is falling in the dark of night, it is so very peaceful. That's when I like to walk and contemplate what the Universe has to offer. For there is much more than we could ever hope for, if we tune in!

I think picking up a crafty habit is good for the psyche.

I force myself to go out of doors for at least 20 minutes 5-7 days a week in the winter. Mostly I hate every minute of it but I feel so wonderful when I get back inside! It is refreshing to be able to walk outdoors in nature or on the beach or even just around the block.aspiritofsimplicityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14870339828098281415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7752479985637652884.post-8520512163053324502013-10-19T23:54:56.831-04:002013-10-19T23:54:56.831-04:00You had me laughing with the whole stripper pole c...You had me laughing with the whole stripper pole comment.
