Winter Gardens

We headed over to Winter Gardens on Friday afternoon to take a look at the house before dinner and the theater.

It is amazing how quickly it is all coming together!

After a walk around the house we headed to the Crooked Can brewery for dinner and a few drinks (and golf).

We finished off the night by volunteering at the local theater and watching the production of 1984. It was interesting show and the production quality was really good!

More Golf…

Today I went to the practice rounds for the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill Club & Lodge. We were lucky enough to get passes into the club house today so we got to see quite a few of the players up close. It was raining a bit this morning (and cold), so after lunch we headed out to watch a few of the players practice.

Walk

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.

Diet

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!
