TMI

 Sometimes in the morning while lying in bed, I will realize that I have certain urges prompting me to go to the bathroom. Once I am out of bed and vertical, those urges sometimes become more necessitous.

This morning, I came very close to making it to the toilet on time. A little solid waste clean up was required.

Now, aren't you glad you checked in on this Blog today!?

It is the time of year for me to start growing more facial hair, specifically an beard, which shall become an goatee.

Here's how I look on Day Two.

Hot Tub Walk

 I made a critical mistake this morning. 

I got out of bed about 6:30 and I started my morning in the hot tub. It was great. It was warm and relaxing and very peaceful.

But I can't stop sweating. Plus, I feel very lethargic.

I'm going to go out on my morning walk and try to invigorate myself. Let's see how that goes.

8:16AM: That was a tough walk but not a killer. I don't feel as good as I felt yesterday when I finished my walk. I stopped on the hill for about a minute and a half but otherwise had a good walk. It took me about 30 minutes to walk the 1.25 miles.

Walking Report

What a difference a day makes. 

Yesterday I was struggling on the hill during my walk. Today, I breezed through it. Don't get me wrong. It was still tough. But I didn't have to stop for rests and my thighs weren't burning when I reached the top.

I did the 1.25 mile course. And I managed to get it in between rain storms.

Autumn Addition

 Today was a tough walk. The hill climb really took it out of me. I stopped for a brief respite at the top of the first hill. Then I stopped again at the Kabot's Kitchen sign to set a spell. It probably took me three minutes to recover.

I ended up making the walk a little bit longer by walking down Euclid, all the way to Post Street and then down to Waverly. That addition turned my 1.25 mile walk into a 1.4 mile walk.

I hope the walking is helping me but it doesn't feel like it. In any event, it's not hurting me.

Let's Go Brandon!

I have just returned from my morning walk. I walked the 1.25 mile course which takes me up a hill to Division street and then half way up the Division street hill. The trip back down is a very steep hill which is surprisingly difficult to walk down. You're suddenly using different muscles and it's tough for a pussy like me.

I have noticed for the last two days that it has been difficult to climb the hill. I stopped and rested for about a minute today. There is a good resting place a little more than half way up the hill.

I could probably make a two mile walk but I don't think I could get much farther than that.

I would like to conclude by saying that my headline for todays post has nothing to do with the information held in the post. It's just a popular euphemism going around right now expressing ungraciousness to President Joe Biden, of whom I am not a fan.
