Hi
I'm back from walking and 11 cents. The temperature this morning was 48 degrees and dry when I started out then a light drizzle started falling that started as a mist and slowly became heavier.

I decided to change things up and go back to a regular pattern of eating starting Tuesday, Change is a good Thing to aid in weight loss.

Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The temperature this morning was 47 degrees and dry when I started out then a very light rain started falling that never became heavier.

Today I walked on a 3rd route in the last three days, Wednesday I saw two Deer on my way to get coffee then at the 1/2 way mark I saw four more heading down towards the water. Thursday on a second route I saw 4 Deer running along a stream and then today I saw two Deer, likely the same two as Wednesdays on my way for coffee then on a third route I saw 4 different Deer in a yard, likely eating the landscaping.

Yesterday I went to the new Whole Foods that is now open to look around. I did sample some of the hot & cold foods, I was not impressed by the Cardboard boxes available to use, They did not keep the food warm. WF seems to have an aversion to plastic including the bags used to pack the purchases. The Fancy fresh baked breads did look tasty if Calorie laden. FWIW the Hot & cold foods were $8.99 a pound.

Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The temperature this morning was 42 degrees and the snow in the forecast for today was starting to fall as I went out the door. When I left the snow had not started to accumulate, that has changed by the time I returned home there was around an inch on the sidewalks and roads and more than that on the lawns.
So much for the weather forecast that the snow would not start to accumulate on the roads until later in the day. Hopefully their prediction that the snow will melt away quickly after it ends is better

I hope You had a Happy Easter

Hi
I'm back from walking and 1 cents. The temperature this morning was 30 degrees. While I was sitting in the living room eating my Pre Walk snack motion outside the window caught my eye. I thought it was one of the Dog walkers I usually see at that time of morning, When I looked out I saw two Deer walking down the street. Later while I was at the Midpoint of my Walk I saw two More Deer walking through a yard. Yesterday I heard an Owl Hooting and a close by Woodpecker, No matter how hard I looked I could not see either one of them.

FWIW I filled the Gas Tank in the car on the 4th, it cost $24 and was the first fillup this year, the last fill was on December 17th. Did I mention I do not do much driving as I can walk to many places I need to go and my Brother does not mind picking up things at the ShopRite for me.

Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The temperature this morning was 38 degrees. I shortened my walk today, I had thought that unheated Gloves would be adequate, Sadly I could feel my fingers getting too cold thus I short circuited my walk

Overnight there was a light rain and on the way out I was getting hit with a few stray drops that stopped around the time I stopped for coffee and it is now drying off outside.

An engineer dies and reports to the pearly gates.
St. Peter checks his dossier and says, “Ah, you’re an engineer — you’re in the wrong place.” So, the engineer reports to the gates of hell and is let in.
Pretty soon, the engineer gets dissatisfied with the level of comfort in hell, and starts designing and building improvements. After a while, they’ve got air conditioning and flush toilets and escalators, and the engineer is a pretty popular guy.
One day, God calls Satan up on the telephone and says with a sneer, “So, how’s it going down there in hell?” Satan replies, “Hey, things are going great. We’ve got air conditioning and flush toilets and escalators, and there’s no telling what this engineer is going to come up with next.”
God replies, “What??? You’ve got an engineer? That’s a mistake — he should never have gotten down there; send him up here.” Satan says, “No way. I like having an engineer on the staff, and I’m keeping him.”
God says, “Send him back up here or I’ll sue.”
Satan laughs uproariously and answers, “Yeah, right. And just where are YOU going to get a lawyer?!”

Hi
I'm back from walking and 1 cent. The temperature this morning was 29 degrees.
The plan for the day is going to the Grocery Store, whether one or two I have not decided. I could stop at Whole Foods and pick up some bacon from the hot breakfast bar to use later this week or I could pick up the ShopRite Precooked bacon when I am there picking up water, Apples, Fresh Baby Carrots and Some Frozen Vegetables. I haven't decided, they are located a few minutes from each other despite being in adjacent towns.

USA Today Declares ‘Ebony and Ivory’ Offensive, Insufficiently Woke
The writers call the Paul McCarney and Stevie Wonder song 'naïve' compared to the 'woke factions of today's cultural discourse'

....The reason why some of the songs might be considered offensive are pretty straightforward, such as Nirvana's "Rape Me." But even well-meaning songs were declared offensive, such as Live Aid's "Do They Know It’s Christmas?" USA Today acknowledges the song was written to raise money for the 1980's Ethiopian famine, but complains the group "did it with a song that declares the entire continent of Africa is bereft of water, trees or joy."

Even "Ebony and Ivory," the 1982 anti-racism collaboration recorded by Paul McCarney and Stevie Wonder, was declared politically incorrect for not being "woke" enough.

"McCartney and Wonder meant well with their hyper-literal interpretation of race relations," USA Today acknowledges. "But their message of ‘people are the same, there’s good and bad in everyone, so let’s just get along' would be interpreted as hilariously naïve by the more woke factions of today's cultural discourse."

Aerosmith's "Dude (Looks Like a Lady)" is likewise declared problematic, even though the song about a feminine-looking man was written by an openly gay songwriter.

Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The temperature this morning was 39 degrees. To Do list for the day is started, Charge the batteries for my heated mittens that ran out this morning , The iPod showed low battery yesterday and this morning so it needs charging too. Before I do that I need to add and delete items for iTunes, then plug it in and synchronize it. Beyond that I have nothing critical that needs doing

The Audio-book I was listening to finished while I was walking so I switched to Music which I am still listening too. I did that on purpose as when I Synchronize the iPod it means I need to remember where I was if I was in the middle of a book so it is easier to switch to music. iTunes gets updated for content when I finish my messaging later on so why not listen to more music...

The iPod also goes into a different state when the low battery warning appears, I hear it announced in my ears and on the screen. When that happens I can adjust the volume as usual with the buttons on the side, however to pause it or change content I need to hit the button center bottom that makes the screen appear then swipe the low battery warning off to pause or change what I am listening too.

I blew it yesterday, my Brother gifted me with a 1/2 pint of Rice Pudding from a place he found that opened last week. End result, No more Rice Pudding shortly in the house

Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The temperature this morning was 33 degrees. Overall it was better walking than yesterday despite being being cooler as there was no breeze.

I did have a Pair of Deer moving back and forth across the road in front of me for a few blocks. Due to the size difference one I'm guessing mother and young'un.
