so…here we are today, on another Monday Morning train ride…

——–

There is a woman on the train that has a ‘magical chimes’ sound on her phone, maybe for her text message alert. Well, it sounds EXACTLY like the sound on those old read-along storybook tapes that signaled for us to turn the page:

Brrrrrrrrrriiiiiinnnggggg

I feel like she’s the conductor of this morning’s ride, letting me know when to turn the page in the newspaper, or drawing my attention to the person walking through the door.

I’m wearing new shoes today.

I buy new shows once every 2 or 3 years. My last pair were dying a slow and painful death ( no smelly feet jokes, thank you) and the soles were starting to slant in a direction that made my ankles and knees feel like someone clubbed that with a crecent wrench at the end of every day.

now, new shoes, socks that might be a bit thinner than the ones I wore when trying the shoes on, plus about 3 miles of city walking during the day…I’m thinking things will be getting worse before they’re getting better.

The sun is high in the sky for 6AM, and there is not a cloud in the sky.

We are in the process of converting the back bedroom into a small gym, and in the process making the front porch into half Sammy’s playroom and half lounge/sitting area.

This involved bringing the treadmill upstairs.

I won’t be working out this week.

There wasn’t much of a chance of me working out this week before last night, but after all the lifting-turning-shimmying-up-and-down-the-steps, I’m down for the week.
