Old Age Day by Day September 12, 2011

We saw the movie "Contagion" yesterday for five bucks. It was not as good as "Outbreak", but still interesting. How a movie about something so dire can be entertaining I'm not sure, maybe because it is in the back of our minds anyway, and we get our anxieties front and center, but without any responsibility - more disconnected and thus seemingly safer.

Today I weighed myself after skipping over a month, and I had lost a bit. But not what the doctor said to lose. I guess I'll have to do a sort of diet to get down five pounds. Just a salad for dinner or something like that. As much as I've eaten out recently, it's a miracle I've not gained. I attribute it to running around after a three year old and lots of walking. But now, with the little dynamo back home, I must take it upon myself to keep active. Back to the exercise video, and perhaps more cleaning around the house. I vacuumed yesterday morning at nine am and it felt GOOD.

The sun just came out, so my day just got better. I'll walk the dogs and take it from there.
