My Actifit Report Card: April 2 2019

Starting the day with Yoga is always an excellent idea. I have a hard time with that in the winter when it is cold in the morning.

You might laugh 😂 😂😂 and say that it is never cold in Southern California. I will tell you that you are wrong!!!

It does get to almost freezing. Okay, that is nothing like 20 below. But here is the thing. Our hoses are built for warm weather. No heater or a lousy one and cold air creeps in everywhere.

Believe me. It gets cold. But today, it was warm in the morning and Yoga was great. Especially my back thanked me. And my knee. And my feet. Okay, my whole body was pleased to stretch and get the kinks out.

My mind was too 🤓

After Yoga, it was "Take Gia for a Walk" time. She is getting better and better.

I was hungry when I came home and the Mulberries called my name. You don’t believe me? I swear they did - or maybe it was my stomach rumbling.

Can't you hear them calling you? I went to the tree and ate and ate until I wasn't hungry anymore. I still got a whole bowl full. Some are not quite ripe but they came off the stem when I touched them. They still are good in a smoothie.

A little bit of Steem and Twitter action later and a soup cooking on the stove, it was garden time.

Gia mostly slept instead of hunting the gophers that are destroying the yard. I guess she is not a hunter but a retriever. I have to throw a gopher for her to bring it to me. She might be scared. I would be. Have you seen their teeth?

My roommate has a talent for finding all kinds of stuff. She went out to pick some salad greens and came back with a gopher skull. Or maybe a rat?

Pretty cool, right? We have all kinds of critters living in the yard. I am sure there are lots of skeletons about as well...

I am happy to say that she got some greens as well. Dinner was secure and delicious.

On top of that, we lucked out big time! My son came over and brought some freshly baked sourdough bread. He is a great baker and was teaching my ex-husband's wife how to make bread during the weekend. He only knows how to make a big batch lol. We all got a loaf and it was a perfect addition to a soup and salad dinner!

Of course, I did my 7 push-ups. This time on the floor but not yet with knees off the ground. Next week!

I turned on all the lights in the house - it still turned out pretty dark. I have to remember to do these earlier.
