Refreshed, Reset, Ready to Go
I’m feeling good today, is spite of the unexpected expenses. Life happens and there’s not a lot that can be done about it! The plumber came a day early & they are bringing a new hot water tank tomorrow morning. There’s a relief to that, especially since I have a home warranty for the first year. This little hiccup was expensive, and left me with no flooring in two rooms, but that’s okay. There are bigger problems in the world.
My knee continues to hurt a little. I should be wearing a brace until it feels normal again, but I have no clue where mine is. I hate to just buy another one, but I think that’s where we are!
Probably because my knee was hurting, but I found it disappointing that to downtown and back is about a quarter mile short of three miles. That means I have to add tangents to make up for it, so I probably need to do that going. After the second mile, all I want to do is get home. I think when I get to the point where I can do two miles to downtown and then stop for shopping or coffee or whatever before returning, things will feel less daunting on the walk back. Or maybe when the knee is not hurting. Otherwise, my breathing is good. My pace could be better, but I feel good on the walk. It’s a nicer walk overall than rural Glencoe was. I do have things I love about those rural walks, but I think this one is just slightly better. There’s greater opportunity for variation certainly. One thing I might try is just going until I reach 1.5 miles and see where that is. That would at least give me a walk I could do that would guarantee I meet my 3 mile goal.
