Boy, time sure flies when you’re retired.\u00a0 I’ve picked up my retired ID card (with the absolute worst picture I think I’ve ever seen of me — and I’ve seen some bad ones), visited with my new doctor on Friday (seems really good — I’ll see him for blood tests and follow-up in six months), and received my final DD214 in the mail.\u00a0 My final pay even showed up in my checking account about ten days earlier than expected.<\/p>\n
I still have to file my final travel vouchers.\u00a0\u00a0 Maybe I should get that done this week.<\/p>\n
I’m still trying to get into a schedule for writing and everything else.\u00a0 I did pick up a Wii console and Wii Fit.\u00a0 So far, it’s fun, and I think it will be a good system.\u00a0\u00a0 I’m not wild about Wii Baseball, but Wii Tennis is kind of fun.\u00a0 Tonight, I’m going to give Wii Bowling a try.\u00a0 I do 20 minutes of activities on Wii Fit and then I play a Wii Sports game.\u00a0 After I get everything played, I’ll settle into a schedule of those things I enjoy or that, in the case of Wii Fit, I need more work on.\u00a0 For instance, the Wii Fit Balance activities are very revealing about where I need core work.\u00a0 One thing that many people may not realize is knee surgery affects balance in subtle ways.\u00a0 I believe the Wii Fit Balance activities are going to serve as rehabilitation for that induced weakness.<\/p>\n
Surprisingly, I was able to hold a perfectly balanced Warrior Pose on my left side last night.\u00a0 The right side?\u00a0 A little wobbly.\u00a0 As in real life, I’m a terrible hula hooper.\u00a0 Have you tried any Wii games?\u00a0 If so, what ones do you like and why?\u00a0 Which ones do you not recommend?\u00a0 Why?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
