Depends On the Weather

I really want to walk 2 miles a day; however, when it is hot, I just can’t handle it. Cold is uncomfortable, but with two coats and two pairs of trousers, I can deal with it. Nonetheless, I get all the exercise nowadays working on my backyard. During the pandemic I came down with the virus and did nothing for a while. The backyard had bushes that grew to four to five feet. I’m still working on them. This of course while hauling a fallen tree little by little and all the other little stuff.

At 76, I work 15 to 20 minutes and then come back into my easy chair, drink cold water and cool off next to my 8000 btu air conditioner. That generally takes about half an hour.

One of these days, I will get back to just walking.
