Pekoe joined me for my morning meditation today!

I decided to take myself to the movie tonight and went to an early show. Funny enough I was the only one in the theater!

I didn’t bother to put my phone on silent…

I am so glad I am able to start getting out and walking. I have a new goal of walking 10,000 steps a day. Whilst this may not be much for some it is quite a bit for me after having the bones fused in my foot.

To pass the time while walking I have been listening to podcasts and todays was especially interesting. This mornings podcast was a Buddism guide to Mindfulness. It really reminded me that we have so much we really don’t appreciate. Our mind seems to wonder on to the next thing vs appreciating what we are currently doing.

We have to enjoy the current moment vs always planning for the future because we can’t control the future, but we can control the current moment.

So after my yearly medical I qualified for the Zurich diet plan… which I didn’t expect. So I have 12 weeks of weekly calls and I get a wellness kit. funny enough it arrived today with a special plate.

Unfortunately it arrived on Valentines Day and Broadstone gave us all a breakfast treat. Donuts from the Glass Knife, so I couldn’t say no. I am not sure it fits on my new diet plan!

The dr said I should stay on my crutches, but my foot is feeling really good! I went for a walk this morning- 2 miles! It is sore I am not going to lie, but I think I did ok for my first walk. It is a beautiful morning out.

Last night Lilly and I got out and painted some pottery for the first time. It was a lot of fun! Each kitty will get a new food dish in about a week!
