The Wandering Hermit: I’ll Miss Some Of This

Rainy walk this morning.  I did wait for the rain to lighten a bit, so I got started a little later than I have lately.  It was nice one, and the playlist I made was perfect for a more laid back walk.

I was feeling a little sick overnight, so sleep was scant.  I imagine I’ll sleep this afternoon, but it is a rainy day, so it’s not the best day to get things done with moving or mowing.  We are trying to stay on top of it.

Yesterday, Justin & I took some things to the storage unit.  We met Brent there.  I hadn’t seen the space since it was rented last year.  I understand what Brent has been doing with it, but it’s going to be a challenge to merge my things with his.  We might even need an additional unit.  I’m looking forward to moving; it’s going to be so much better for my fitness.  I LOVE my outdoor walks surrounded by trees and birds, but the gravel road can be hard to walk on and absolutely everything becomes a mess with a little rain since the ground is all clay.  It is beautiful when it is dry, but it isn’t reliable.  I’d like to have consistency.  If I’m feeling into it, I can always go walking on a wooded trail or around the lake.  I could even go do walks in rural residential areas.  The point is, I would love to have a reliable trail.  I’ll miss walking up and down the street though.  I’ve been enjoying that.

I got in a little more walking at noon, but it was hard to do while Justin was outside mowing.  He needs things, Chip needs things…. it’s just far easier to get interrupted.
