Exercise

Downs

My brain was feeling very foggy this afternoon so I delayed working on some complicated reports I was planning to create.

Ups

Since last week when I was sick, I haven’t been exercising. I would have exercised Monday except our schedule was off due to Presidents Day. However, I finally got back on my exercise routine yesterday.

I also managed to clean the upper level of the house with time to spare. Like exercise, I slacked off with my normal chores last week and it feels good to start getting on top of things again.

Calvin Moment

I think Calvin’s first word is going to be “ditty” (kitty, except he can’t say the k sound). He might even be saying it now, I can’t tell for sure. In any case, he adores the cats and always starts talking excitedly when one of them appears. Calvin was in the bath today when 5 came looking for some attention. He had a hair brush in his hand and happily banged her head a couple of times with it before I caught him. He’s still too young to understand what “gentle” means. Fortunately, 5 is the child-friendly cat so she took his affectionate abuse in stride.

Simplification

Got rid of some empty boxes that had been cluttering up our living room.
