business

as in being busy, the busy-ness of life. Maia is doing so well, it's hard to see her sickness. today was much warmer than usual, up to mid-60's, and her afternoon walk was a bit warm, I think. She took a while to cool down and slow down her breathing. The coolest part of the day is the morning, so we'll start taking *ugh* morning walks.

I have never been a morning exerciser. I've tried, with all good intentions, to get up extra early for a jog or a walk or a swim. I just love my warm bed. I hurt in the morning. I'm sleepy after I exercise. My shoes are too far away. Just 5 more minutes.

If anything can drag my sorry buttocks out of a warm comfy bed and get these creaking joints out on the road, it's the knowledge that it's good for pup.

Plus I'm in school again, plus I'm doing more stage combat training, plus I'm pushing my workouts to get ready for weapons renewals. Plus spring is springing and I Have Garden Plans! Plus I'm old and slow.

Maia's going to love the morning walks.
