    April 28 - Day 57/75

    ✅ Food - :smiley:
    ✅ No alcohol - no problem
    ✅❌ Exercise - Two workouts: 1strength-1 cardio. Moving all the stuff out of my dad's care home room - I'll call that a workout for today. No cardio.
    ❌ Reading - something helpful at least 10 minutes per day. Not much time for reading today.
    ✅ Water - OK
    ✅ Thoughts - Wrote the obit for dad today. It was great going through old documents, press clippings, and figuring out how to sum him up. Glad I ended up with that task

    @NouveauRee You are reminding me to read Brené Brown again - I have read some of her stuff and it is always interesting and inspiring.

    I signed up to do a 5k, so yesterday I ran for five miles in 1 hour and 55 min. Then my husband told me that a 5k is only 3.1 miles. Today, I set my fitbit to do a 5k(3.1miles). I ran for over two hour and my fitbit said I only did 2.21 miles. Ugh...I think I set it wrong. I was trying to time how long it would take me to do the 5k.

    I am a little behind with my posts. On Tuesday I had workpeople over to replace the waterpipes. Because they couldn't connect where they expected to, they had to dig a whole new ditch from my front door to the street. In that process, they ended up cutting my internet cable in half. They finally fixed it this morning.
