I regularly exercise indoors, in air conditioning on my living room floor, doingrock-running. By this way my heart rate gradually climbs over 90 beats per minute, reaching a low "zone one" of cardiovascular stress that physicians recommend to their patients for walking and light physical exertion. Yesterday I earned a little more than 23K (23,000) steps training this way while watching TV, usually major league baseball games, half-inning by half-inning. MyFitbit watch has an annoying tendency to reset the step total to zero every few hours..and whenI've already done a few thousand steps, I try to remember to write down that number; I have credit for 2511 so far today. Last night Gainesville had a tremendous thunderstorm that went on for hours..before today's meteorological activity I observed the clouds build up while sitting with sweet Melissa and Peewee Daisy on the back porch. Maybe later today I'll be able to enjoy sitting outside some more with them.Yesterday evening I watched some baseball on the baseball channel we're subscribed to. I enjoyed the game but not the commentary during the final innings. The dude who thought he had all the important opinions came across as cynical, hypercritical and disrespectful to both the game of baseball and to me as a fan who, ironically, has never played it. Maybe if this continues I'll use the "mute" `button more. More games are on tap today and into the evening:enjoy...
This is Memorial Day weekend, so with it I would like to honor Americans who made the ultimate sacrifice in times of conflict to protect our blessed freedoms. None of us, myself included, will live within our mortal bodies forever on this Earth. Those who bravely sacrificed their precious lives for our sake are especially worthy of our respect and honor. May GOD bless them all...
