Morning musings

Just show up, Shirly. Most mornings, I have a battle with my bed. I usually tell BFF Love about this. Well, my bed wanted me to stay longer and just be lazy. I want to, too! But then, I think of having to enjoy a long life, survive cancer and spend more time with my loved ones, so I get up and go ahead with my day. I start with a trip to the bathroom, get dressed, have my vitals check, and put on my walking shoes. I usually reserve Sundays to have a date with my bed, and lounge around. But on the other 6 days, I have to remind myself to show up. 

Today, I woke up a bit late at past 6AM for my walk. It's another slow morning for me, finished at around 8,000 steps for 62 minutes and went back home after. The roads are not busy as usual, as it is the weekend. I'd assume that most people are still asleep after a late night-out, or maybe just sleeping in. As for me, I will sleep in tomorrow. I will have to start my day with my usual walk and my morning routine. I miss my SB after-walk treat, but for now, the coffee at home would do. I cannot afford such luxury this week. Hopefully, I will get to treat myself once again for showing up next week. I think "Good job, Shirly" is enough!

They're so back!

  I think I would be remiss if I don't write about them, or this well-written article by GQ.  https://www.gq.com/.../bts-begins-again-gq...
