For the last few months I’ve been obsessed with living an upright life – literally! I realized I am beginning to lean forward ALL the time. If you were watching me, you’d see me suddenly straighten up as I walk across a room. That’s when the mind kicked in. Just like my dad before me, I often lean my elbows on the kitchen sink when doing mundane tasks. With daughter Lise’s help, I am much more aware of being straight when walking in the morning. She and I would check each other and remind ourselves to keep our backs straight. Recently friend Margo told me her watch tells her when she should get up and walk. Maybe I need a watch to watch me and tell me to stand up straight. I’m certain I don’t want to be a slouch.
