Started off with one plan last night, ended up with another. slow short walk to the end of the block, come back and clean the house… didn’t even lock down the house, just the security door. Was babying the hammy, but it felt good enough and it was a nice night, so kept going and going. I love walking in the dark and the marine layer had rolled in with the wonderful damp cool air was great.
Stop by the little park, let the dogs horse around a tiny bit, then back to it, down the block through the pool of patio diners where i ran into friends i hadn’t seen in person since the beginning of the plague. They were on the way out, but sat down with them for a bit talking and having a wonderful glass of wine (on an empty stomach). Around 9:30 as the wine hit me midway home, texted another friend who lives down the road and he made sure i was home safe eventually. The night was a string of happy coincidences all together. We all have each others’ numbers at this point and will be doing a HH or something soon. I may join the old crew at the dog park, but i need to figure out if that’s something i still want to do. There’s nothing wrong with the dog park per se, but there is a different crowd of people that bring drama with them and i have two very large dogs.
Thank goodness i put on a clean shirt when i left the house, I’d been wearing a white tee and spilled on it when i was unloading groceries, so grabbed another to go with my pj shorts. I’d also gone through a bit of a crying fit before i left the house, but at least I’d rinsed my face off before i walked out the door. I’m sure I was a stunning fashion plate. 🤣 Good part about all this is that these are the people that i met when Sadie was a pup and had boundless energy and everyone loved her and they were the same people that helped pick Hogan’s name with me. The stainless steel print I had made of Sadie, Hogan and Shasta arrived Thursday and i really looked at it for the first time last night. it’s beautiful. Makes me cry to look at it right now, but over time, I’m hoping it makes me smile. And since this huge neighborhood is crazy efficient in passing information around, I’m going to have to let folks know about Lili officially, I’ve been quietly keeping her to myself as we adjusted to one another. Will have to wait and see if there’s any blowback on that other than hurt feelings. I have no regrets.
As to the numbers, blob is down, quads and calves are definitely coming back from the very short, very slow walks with Sadie and Shasta. Muscle is up from the hills, as is water, because it’s hot and i drink ice water all day long rather than turning on the AC. Things I’m learning about my body: for me, if i don’t move around a lot, I’m not hungry and it’s super easy to not eat a lot. If i do, my appetite increases overall during the day and i need to plan to make sure i have good options at hand. I’m in love with strawberries again, blueberries not so much. No idea why this happens.
Ahi tuna and baguette for breakfast this morning. Might be brunch given the later hour. No pics taken last night, but a passion fruit vine I’m keeping an eye on because the owner always puts a container out front when they start to get ripe. 🤤
