    3/8/2024 - day 91 - Over today by a bit. Turned a trip upstate into an extended date night with a nice dinner without regards to calories. Gotta live life a little too.

    3/10/2024 - day 93. Both of my sons home - did some woodworking, spent some time with my folks.Came home then had a nice family game night - we broke out the poker chips and enjoyed some Texas style hold-em. Been over 15 years since I broke out those poker chips.. Felt really nice… are a bit above goal but totally worth it.

    3/19/2024 - day 102. First day of spring. Still on point. Going to start some progressive body weight workouts today. A few years ago I started to purge physical clutter from my life, but other events put that plan on hold. I have recently restarted this plan. The idea being I want to see if I can effectively maintain a desired level of strength and aesthetics without machines and free weights. I don’t intend to minimalist, but do want to cut what I feel is a lot of unnecessary ’stuff’. From excess clothing, stuff from old hobbies and tools I haven’t used in 5 years that won’t be useful to my sons. Every few days, I want to let something go, or not replace it when it depleted unless it completely necessary.
