The moment you look at pedometer in bed and it says zero steps 👣
And that’s why I’m now and up and walking on this Monday. I have at least 7 1/2 miles ahead of me, maybe closer to nine depending on the day goes.
Good morning! Clear and 29 degrees in Delmar, NY. 🌅 Calm wind.
Cold start to the week 🌸 but it should warm up nicely by midday and should be quite nice for the balance of the week. The air smells like grain 🌾 and already the grass is greening up and by the weekend things will be in full bloom I’m thinking. Let’s get er done.

Service day for Big Red 🔧, I’m thinking I might leave work early to pick him up though it gets more difficult being a session day though I expect it won’t be a real long one as they have to pass the extender early. Doubt I’ll get paid early tomorrow but it’s not like it’s the beginning of the month.

I think it’s a leave the windows open night 🔳 and sit out back kind of evening. That is after the walk 🚶. That said, I still want to be in 🛏 by around 9 o’clock to get to bed and get my needed sleep.
