My son gets back tonight and I am excited. He lives in one of my apts and goes to school here. It’s an arrangement that works out really well for both of us. I like having him close, and he likes not having to pay rent.
He ’s been away since May and it will be nice to have a chance to chat. Now that he is grown he has developed language skills…for years all I got out of him were grunts. Nowadays we have actual conversations!
I was so tired last night I took the dog for a long, slow walk. No power-walking at all…I think he sniffed each and every telephone pole, tree and fencepost along the way. Tomorrow I head back to the camp and will make sure to get at least one hour of hiking in each day. The trail goes over some pretty big ridges and I keep a good pace so there is some definite benefit.
I have given up tracking food until vacation is over. I am just trying to pay attention, not get out of control, stay away from sugar and only say positive things to myself. Oh, that all sounds so simple…why is it so difficult to do?

Our dogs must be related. Sometimes I think he has to sniff every blade of grass another dog might have touched!

Walking slowly, not paying too much attention, conversations with son, vacation….all good things! Take care…
