… a few scars and burns

Someone commented earlier that the atmosphere in Dallas is not conducive to being outside.  I want to clarify that the atmosphere never entered my mind when I made this change.

First, I didn’t think to do the research and second what is my other option — to stay inside?  Nope.  Now, I go to www.dallasair.org to get the ozone layer ratings.  Honestly, if I needed to go somewhere I wouldn’t care if we were code red.  I can’t stop living because our society (globally) made some bad choices.

Anyway, I have a few burns on my face.  I think they have to do with my lack of sunscreen.  I get ready, feed my dogs and leave the house — sunscreen get’s lost in the shuffle.  The sunburns attest to that.  Wear Sunscreen SongSunscreen Song

I breathe okay.  I developed seasonal allergies when I moved to Dallas.  I was nervous my allergies would flare up.  Instead, I think my body (or my nose) adapted.  I don’t sneeze nor do I have congestion problems.  The body is an amazing machine.

I do have a few scars and burns from simply wiping out on my bike.  I don’t fall dramatically.  I usually miss the pedal and scrape my leg or get on the bus and accidentally hit myself in the head.

Overall, I feel fine.

How do you feel?
