My body is still trying to adjust to more activity due to cardiac rehab. I am finding that I had adjusted to less activity better than I thought. My calorie intake had adjusted to my activity levels. I have just sent that out the window. This has lead to eating at odd times and falling back asleep because my body is still trying to heal and manage calories. I find that I can not eat as much as I use to. I got up at 6 am for breakfast and then got sleepy. I slept until noon. I had really intended to be at the mall around 10am for my walk. I did make it there by 1:30pm. Take today for instance, I tried walking at the nearby outdoor mall. I have not yet been cleared for graded walking so no walking around the block yet. I found that after 20 minutes of the 40 planned minutes I was very tired. I was walking too fast. I know this because my mileage was too high. I have to figure out a way to walk slower and obviously it was not my current audio book. I guess that I will have to ask what beat of music I should be walking to and creat a playlist.
In Tunisian crochet, my Skill Builder Hat by aklori designs has picked up its pace. I finished round 11 of the crown. I am now have begun round 2 of the body. Having never made a top down hat before has left me wondering when the body will turn into a tube. I can say with certainty that it will not occur in the first few rounds. The body is the easiest part of the hat so far. The body is also much faster to crochet.
Time for tonight’s progress picture. When it is finished, if the orange is not the right color for me, I have the perfect friend to gift it to. It is starting to look very orange to me.
