This is for sure one of those 'workout or die' moments, so to speak, in that I need to go workout in the park.
As in walking, throwing a ball, stretching, ect.
I drank some beers last night, and the night before, followed by basically sitting around all day.
I have to keep the momentum towards fitness going, and not slothiness.
I have a lot of free time on my hands, again, suddenly, and need to fill that time with something I'm passionate about.
What I can't do though, is fall back into drinking, cause drinking robs you of all motivation and drive.
When drink, all you want to do is stay at home and pretend you're a 'some body'.
Anyways, time to get dressed, up and out.
I don't deserve my body, my body really did deserve a better or luckier or more blessed soul than mine, that's for sure.

Stretching is as important as working out, especially as you age  I just got done working out at the park, and as you can see, I also managed to get in some stretching. Stretching matters, and you can take advantage of even a fence, to create leverage for yourself as you stretch. Get creative, use your environment to your advantage.

I wonder if 5g phones hurt our health?I mean I remember before 5g was rolled out, there was a lot of scientific opposition to that frequency, but in the end, as usual, companies put profit before public safety...you can do that when have lot's of money to bribe law makers with.  I mean does 5g cause ringing in the ears??

I had to change the theme on here, on my end, to dampen some of that powerful blue light effect click to enlarge Everyone has their own computer and can change the color scheme in settings. I just got tired of that bright white background and dark characters, so I'll try this theme for a while and see if it helps

When get older you can't be afraid to by stuff for yourself to make your life more tolerable.
Cause this idea that things will get better in the future if you just save all your money, is a farse.
Better enjoy your life now, in the presence, while you can.

Sorry, but just haven't been myself lately. I'm just not the same, don't have the same goofy, silly, youthful enthusiasm about anything, at the moment. That goofy, silly, youthful enthusiasm is what shielded me for years, from the harsh realities of life, and or even my own future on this here planet they call earth. I'm trying hard to find myself right now, post, or semi post drinking. I've cut back a lot, and sobriety is like a hit and miss, mainly a hit, as of late, in that sobriety is slowly gaining the upper ground; but with that does come set backs. And with those set backs come mood changes and physiological inconsistancies in my body, mind and soul. It's a weird time for me. For years, it was boozing that fueled a lot of passion in me, when like away from work, and off. But now, if, when, I drink a lot of beers, it just hits me differently, especially the next day, or following days. So I'm trying to find balance right now, trying to find my true self again, what makes me happy, who makes me happy and so forth. Sometimes I wish I had just died a happy drunk, rather than live out a long drury life of getting old. But ye, right now, just waiting for a hero side of me to emerge, a side of myself that can still be young minded, goofy and silly, but without the booze, we shall see.  |

A bike ride  I tell you what, all it took was one bike ride for me to realize how far out of shape I've fallen. Now to the casual eyes, looking at pic, I may seem in shape; and sure, I'm in get up and go to work every day type of shape, but that's far from the type of shape I need to be in in order to be healthy. I got like 4 blocks up the road and already felt a bit winded and dispirited (but I kept on of course), but not before pausing and having a reflective moment. I think as we age, we tend to fool ourselves and think as long as we can get out of bed, go to work, do a few chores, than we're OK...oh, and have a few beers per week or night. But it catches up with you eventually. The older you get, I realize now (well, have for a while) that you really have to be proactive about your health and fitness, cause it will diminish if you're not. That includes diet, exercise, and even mental health exercise. I'm the 'look OK in mirror so must be fit' type, well I'm not, fitness is just as much about what's going on inside your body as it is with your extremities. --------------------------------------- So what do I need to do to better my health? 1. Stop drinking beer.I mean I can go days, even a week without, but when I do drink, I tend to drink hard. 2. Regular exercise, cardio and weights, and squats, light, but none the less leg and knee strengthening is vital for good health and posture.One of the first signs of getting old is how people walk, do to pain or lack of flexibility, ect. If you want to stay walking and moving like you're young than stretch, stretch and stretch some more. 3. Diet.Lately I've slipped back into the bad habit of eating chips, snacks, sodas, but only when at work, but it still adds up in body and will take a toll. -------------------------------- I mean I'm really not that far from being in great shape for my age, if only I could get out of my own way. To be continued.

To exercise or not to exercise, that is the question Usually exercising then gives me the excuse to drink afterwards. I'm one of the most fittest drinkers ever...smirk out loud. Actually, I don't feel like exercising at all, not one tiny bit, in that coming off of a long 3 day shift at work, and have other things on my mind, and I did get in little moments of exercise while on the clock. I think I will, why not, what else am I gonna do. (I'm probably only saying that cause I know once I go out, that on the way back I'll buy some beer) But the thing is, is if I drink to much on Sunday, than I'm no good on Monday, and thus fail to get a lot of important matters done. Right now, my future, the future I wanted anyways, seems imperil, so what does it matter? I have no one to physically hold, and no one holds me, I'm alone in this world, thus beer is what holds me at times, why not. When sober, I just dwell on stuff I can't solve (or maybe I could if never drank) See how I battle myself, my own thoughts against and challenging my own thoughts, but isn't that what we all do? Anyways, it's Sunday, I suppose I should get dressed, groom, and then well, we'll see.

I gotta be more careful what I eat during the day, when out and about
Not sure what ingredients they're putting in like deli food now, like at travel centers, cause wow, today, whatever I ate irritated my gums, and now I have the sniffles, like a allergy.
I wish I had the discipline to make my own lunches, daily, I usually do, but fridge kind of empty right now.

I think I just put to much junk in my body today, as in two bags of chips (small bags, but still), a hot dog, a deli pizza, and a store bought salad with white dressing.
Maybe I just put to much junk in me body today, all those chemicals that body has to break down.
I need to go back to a no potato chip diet....or deli pizza.

I've gotta be careful what I eat today, when out and about at work.
If I wasn't already in shape, and have a decent immune system, I'd probably be real sick today, cause of stuff I ate yesterday.
I realize now that sometimes we can just put to much stuff in our bodies, to many chemicals, as in the chemicals they put in processed foods, as in chips.
And or even pre-made deli food, as in prepared foods they set out at travel centers, hot dogs/pizza, ect.
When I eat at home, I rarely ever get sick, or feel sick, or get the sniffles, or that cold feeling, it's only when I eat food made for the public, that health issues seem to ever arise.
I need to wise up in that department.

I spend the bulk of my time and energy, when at home, simply cleaning up after self  I spend the bulk of my time, when at home, just cleaning up after myself...I waste, or spend a lot of time and energy doing that, like a dog chasing their own tail. I guess the only solution to that is to not make a mess to begin with, in that simply clean up/put things away immediately; as in cloths, and or doing the dishes right after a meal. Easier said than done, cause how many of us, when get home from work, just toss clothing wherever? Or after a meal, just pile dishes in sink? Or just scatter stuff, when looking for something? If I didn't spend so much time and energy cleaning up behind self, I can only wonder how many collective years, yes years, I've lost to always cleaning up behind self.
