Up down countless times - house cleaning ; clothes in the washer to be hung later ; dog feeding and a bit of yawning???

 

[Mitch86]

I take two 20 minute walks per day in my house. I'm a young 90!

got up late for shopping pick up - and now WW have moved items about the shelves - feck. shire office to register or re-register a dog - wot a turmoil - you'd think I was signing up for the next trip to mars. finally found out I now have the proud owner of a bull arab male - wonder what religion?? better use several books!! made us all late returning but there he was patiently waiting and not a mess in sight - god I love this guy already!! but heh some of these delightful young semi-professionals have not got a clue about " care and communication with the elderly" the need extra training??

Just some yard work. Brought in the yard waste bin, gathered fallen twigs and put them in the firepit, mowed/mulched fallen leaves on 2/3 of the back yard. I'm ringed in by very tall and mature trees so I stay busy with that crap this time of year. No solar power to speak of or OTA TV via antenna here.

Leaf disposal is getting hairy. We can't burn them, we can only put so much on the curb for pickup each week, and there are too many left over to compost effectively. Leaf pickup stops before the first snow, leaving me piles I have to wait and then bag up in the Spring once pickup resumes.

The trees are now so big and close to houses and wires that even cutting them down is dicey and pricy.


Selfish whinge, please play your tiny violins for me:

I'm on diuretics and I think that's why I get really dry mouth when I work outside. Well, that and too much nasal congestion leading to far too much mouth breathing. So I suck on a small sugar-free mint, which seems to help both issues.

Would it help take care of some leaves to use a mulching mower? Then they just become part of the soil.

So far, I've been outdoors carrying around lumber and 50lb sacks of concrete and powder-form plaster. Heart rate increased, arms got some work, and back is definitely feeling it. Frankly, I doubt I'll be doing any other noteworthy exercise today.

Participated in our local 5K run/walk. Fitbit shows I got my 10,000 steps in for today.

I hope the pool is cooler tonight. April is the hottest month in Thailand and I do not like swimming in hot water.

Later: the pool was, in fact, cooler, though not as cool as I would have liked, but certainly better than on previous evenings. So, I got my one-kilometer swim in without having to swim in hot water.

Two 1.25 mile walks on the nature trail. 40 minutes each for a total of 80 minutes. I've really slowed down in my old age. On our 2nd walk this 20 something chick walking her dog blew by us like we were standing still.

I just can't remember when my legs stopped working?
