Making It Up As I Go Along #653

A four day weekend makes me post to the blog more like I’m on the CPSIC schedule than the regular one.  I skipped posting on Sunday and am here on my last day off before heading back to work.  Anyways…

I think I’ve turned the corner health wise.  Hip is back to normal.  Back has little moments of tightness but nothing major.  And the shin does some contracting from time to time as I sit still, but doesn’t hurt and doesn’t affect walks anymore.  Last five days, I’ve gone for 50, 30, 45, 80, and 45 minute long walks with no real issues.

Long weekend is an extra day longer as I take a day of leave.  It reminds me of my regular four day weekends with CPSIC and I’m basically ready to return to that lifestyle.  Four days off in a row all the time just makes for a more relaxed life.  Don’t need to go rushing off to grocery stores and such at the same time that everybody else is rushing off to them too.  

This past weekend, I had it in my mind that I’d go to a baseball game, and also go to a couple of IMAX movies.  In the end, I did neither.  The weather was so good, and the green of the forest across the street looked so nice, that I was just content to go out for those walks and do some work around the house.  Plus I would have cooked at that baseball game.  It was 4.5 hours long and not a cloud was in the sky.  I walked for just under an hour and a half instead and, by the end of that, I was ready for some time in the cool of the basement.  So more than twice that time in a baseball stadium, no thank you.

And today is one of those rare days that I get through writing something… Ready to save and post… And then decide to scrap the whole thing.  Look at it and “meh, I’m not posting that.” It actually probably happens once a year.  Anything else… The things I post… It’s a sit down to the keyboard, type and post exercise.  

This leaves me an hour in and still nothing to share.  Oh dear oh dear.

So… With that… I’m going to do something quick…

The Poem of May

Clack

Mull and think

Think and mull

Wandering mind

Bird chirp

Sip a sip of drink

Think of gator pie

If I don’t get some

I think I’m going to die

Clue it up

With an empty cup

The birds they have all flown

Time to end

And then press send
