It's a successful strategy, @PetiteSheWolf. You have thrived through many health challenges. I have my own day hospital day coming in a couple weeks. I don't think they will nearly drain me dry, but there will be a bit of blood drawn. I probably have a osteodensitometry scan and a pulmonary function test as well.

Thanks @graoumia , doing good. Only got two bruises on my arms, LOL, and after, I rested well yesterday evening, and baked some gluten-free brownies (the Moosewood cafe recipe, but with a gluten-free flour mix I got that seems to yield fairly good results, and using a great quality chocolate) for tonight's appartment block "neighbors's feast". Looking forward to it!
And hugs and thanks for @Obsinosterous . Hope your day hospital goes smoothly and with encouraging results.
Yesterday Tuesday meditation and over 5,000 steps done.
This morning Pandora ch 7 done, balance for travel yesterday +36, this morning had -35 to go to the lighthouse, so balance for today (before step count) +1. Meditation not yet done.

Thank you for all the messages, you're too many for me to thank you individually but i appreciate . So a little Martial Art bow to you all 
The neighors's feast was real nice yesterday evening, and the brownies went down fast! I decided not to say they were gluten-free, and nobody had any idea the flour was different, LOL. Glad to see that with this mix I can do patisserie fairly well. Next time I will do the same recipe but will add either chopped walnuts, or orange zests, should be real nice too.
Yesterday Wednesday meditation , but walking below 5,000 steps.
This morning Pandora ch 8 done, balance for travel+1 and I am not adding anything from yesterday. Meditation not yet done.
Ah, since I know in the next chapter I am travelling, already doing a crochet to get some more scraps (Ha ha ha, preparation for that infamous chapter, and I picked one that asks for 400 squats + chops, I will spread it in small chuncks throughout today and tomorrow.

Yesterday Friday meditation and body balance done
This morning ch 10 done, meditation done, 400 out of 400 squats + chops done for scraps.
Travel balance previously +2, travel debt for the day -10 (to mountain cave), travel credit for today +77 , travel balance of tonight +69.
D63 of consecutive exercise (D60 on 05/06).
I got some early results from the day hospital, namely the osteodensitometry. Darn. Compared to the previous one, very clear loss of bone , rachis is osteopenic (that can still be acceptable), both hips are clearly osteoporosic. And to think I have been working out regularly since I came it in part to avoid it ... Grrrr. We'll see if the docs put me on some medication, but it is not what I hoped for.
Today Saturday, meditation and over 5,000 steps done. So I can count:
Summary of the week, Sunday to Saturday :

Sunday over 5,000 steps and meditation and mental health habit 1 done.
This morning did Chapter 12 of pandora, and starting backfists side/side over the next days, did 100/1000 for the moment.
Initial travel balance +80, travel debt today -55 (detour for scraps - agora canis, unnammed forest, back to agora, and dreamer's temple), travel balance now +25.
Pandora spoilers
Decided to help the girl - sorry but I can't do different!, we'll see if afterwards she robs me or not - LOL, but I couldn't stand there ignoring.
D65 of consecutive exercise (D60 on 05/06).
Little political rant - as neutral as I may, but I put it in spoilers because other French here may be fed up, LOL.
Woaw, French political life is boiling right now, with a surprise legislative election in 3 weeks called yesterday evening. For me, that means running around like a beheaded chicken to get procurations (and decide my vote at the same moment) in time. For the country, that means there may be a government change before the summer olympics and all the administration (and security) it represents. It's ... quite an interesting time.

Monday did over 5,000 steps and meditation, mental health habit (no need of numeroation) done.
Thank you for the compliment @graoumia ; it /is/ a mess, isn't it?! My favorite beatitude (Jesus's sermont on the mount) has always been "blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God". Something our politicians should really meditate on...
I enjoy Pandora a lot ; the storyline is fun, the decision trees do hold consequences, the side quests / scraps give it a good flexibility, and the travel forces you to walk / run / move pretty well too. It is a commitment - more than 2 months (the famous chapter to turn in all the scraps, LOL), but worth it. @Damer , @neilarey and co made a great job, no, an exceptional job with it.
Today did Pandora chapter 13 , 700/1000 side to side backfists for the moment. Let the thief stay with me so far.
Initial travel balance +25, travel today +56, travel balance tonight +81.

Pandora was a devil to work on. It usually takes us about a year to bring a program out from concept to publication. Pandora took twice as long, divided us in-house (those choices with moral consequences) and destroyed our productivity as we explored alternative storylines that arise from said choices. 
For a while we all kinda lived in it and it felt amazing!

The political hurricane is continuing full force in France, it may get at least a little more stable once the lists for the legislative elections are deposited Saturday. Strange alliances occur, old and new political parties implode... What a week it has been so far.

So, I managed to find someone who could vote in my name for the surprise elections end of this month/early July ; so I filled out the electronic form yesterday evening, and at lunchtime went to the police station to get it authentified (they check your identity and voter ID to see they match the voting procuration, and check the person you designate does exist on the voting list). Bravo to the policemen doing that, efficiently ; especially when you think they are also busy preparing a tiny little shinding called the Olympics game...

I'm so glad to see you doing Pandora, it's how I found Darebee to begin with and it keeps drawing me back.
I really want to do it again (don't think I ever did make it to the end), but it's always very much at the edge of what I can do

Work is mad, it feels like I can't leave for vacation! eeks! But we will manage, it's prepared.
@Maegaranthelas it is a really fun program, but indeed more than 60 days so gotta plan it ... Not easy, specially the big fights days (and as I am ending part 1, I am right in it, LOL), but it's fun, and seeing it all come together story wise at the end, it is very rewarding.
@NancyTree thank you, it is progressively drying, but still quite ugly... I really really hope it can be dry for Saturday (flight for Italia) and I don't need a big bandage, just a small protective one...
