Slow Days (but not Snow Days)

I forgot to post yesterday. It was the second time last week that I forgot to post, and I think that is telling. I’m losing my ambition to post because my life is so dull that I have nothing to day.

saturday

Saturday was brilliantly sunny all day. We enjoyed two long forest walks (except I’m sick of my bone spurs). Other than our walks, all I did was read, doomscroll and some work for SPACE, but I can’t continue with my SPACE work until I chat with Aidan on Wednesday.

I have zero to say about the day, except that I loved every second of it. But there was nothing worth reporting on until I left to have dinner with my South End Posse (Kris, Steve, Stacy, Bryce and Nancy). I have such fun whenever I am with them. 

I arrived at six looking forward to the evening because Kris makes delicious food every time we go to her house. She is such a delightful host, as is Steve. And Stacy is a very dear friend. She’s went under the knife for a hip replacement at the end of January, so she was moving slowly. We had an amazing and fun time together.

I didn’t get home until 22:30. I’m not up that late often, so as soon as I got home, we all went to bed.

sunday

My Day was slow and easy. We walked the Ricki Ave. trail and every time I walk that trail, I am positively amazed at the east with which I climb the long slow hills. I have no compunction whatsoever to walk that trail now that my lungs are so much better thanks to Tezspire.

Because of my reaction to the luge event, I am wary of watching the Olympics, and I have finished my book, so yesterday was all about napping and puttering. It was another lovely sunny day and so we walked the Elder Cedar trail in the afternoon. I needed the slow day after being with six people at dinner on Saturday night.

The best thing about Sunday was getting back to controlled eating. Our Saturday night dinner was a feast and I participated with gusto, so it felt good to eat with restraint yesterday. I’m embarrassed to say that I can’t even remember what movie I watched, if I did watch a movie.

This morning is cloudy and dull. Today, tomorrow, Wednesday and Friday evening are predicted to be snowy or slushy. I’m, of course, hoping that the forecast proves to be wrong. I am desperate to experience a Winter without any snow. Today will be another slow and easy day. Hopefully, the six books by Kate Atkinson will arrive this week!
