37 degrees this morning, no walk, rain.
Always feel a little disappointment when I can’t walk, but that I didn’t walk but also I don’t feel I use my “extra” time effectively. Also, I like my daily dose of whatever book I am listening to as I walk.
My current book (which is “historical fiction”) is up to 1945, on it’s way to (I assume) 1999. That means I have about 40 hours of listening left!
Watching reports from the “1%” conference on CNBC. I am amazed at how some of those people can really have those opinions. I am amazed they try to justify some of their actions.
In a way it would be nice if “time” was elastic. I would compress it and speed it up in the Winter and slow it way down in the Summer!
Kind of like the morning is “hyper time”, although I can’t think of any part of the day where time drags.
Unless, like yesterday, I get stopped by TWO loooooonnnng freight trains! Both going very slooooowwwww!
I am always surprised at my naps during the day. I always wake up thinking I have slept for a long time, and it is normally about ten minutes. (Except in the morning after my walk where I normally nap for about 27 minutes.
I actually set my phone to have an alarm come on at around 32 minutes for my morning nap and 15 minutes fro other naps. I almost never actually hear the alarm since I wake up before the alarm. Actually of course I hear it, but I don’t hear it to wake up to.
For some reason, my naps lately have involved some very strong dreams. Very vivid, and the type that it takes you a while to transition from sleep to being awake because of the conjunction of sleep and awaking. I assume that is good, since it means I am getting a deep sleep in a small dose..
It is that time of year when I am tired of cold, or even a chill. I am ready for Spring and Summer to come, green grass, colorful flowers and green trees. Warm winds, birds flying (just not nesting at my house!) and nice warm or even hot weather!
I have always thought (well, the last couple of years), I’d like to go to Panama in the dead of winter, or someplace where it is hot, hot , hot to make up for the cold winter. Maybe a cruise in a warm ocean with hot breezes. Aliene and I have never been on a cruise and we’ll have to try it sometimes.
When I first started exercising when I was in Chanute, Kansas, I can remember going to the sauna and just sitting there until I felt the heat burn into me and kind of burn the cold out of my body. Some the cold just seem to seep into your body and stay there.
Somehow I got my car radio connected to my iPod so I can play my Spanish lessons, or music or whatever over bluetooth. It is amazing. I shut the car off and when i start it again, it starts in the place where it stopped!
I especially like it in my “sunroof and heater up” mode, when I can listen to fiddle music (or any kind of music I’m in the mood for) and get away for a short time.
Strange, I have probably never met a woman named “Chastity” in my life. Not that I remember anyway. Yesterday I met or talked to three!
That’s it for now, Thursday, January 22, 2015.
