I spent today running from one doctor's appointment to the next. At the first one, I was told there was something deeply wrong with my heart, and had to live with that for about three hours. At the last on, they said, nah, you're heart's good. That first person was acting on an abudance of caution, but you're fine. And BTW the thing you came to me for? Probably not nearly as big a deal as you thought.
Hard day, but a good day!

Good day!
Yesterday’s forecast: possible drizzle.
Reality? Drizzle to rain to snowstorm to sunny.
All while I hiked 11.8 miles (19.0 M) from my home, most of it outside the city. It was glorious.
This morning I’ll take my morning walk, draft a blog post, & edit a chapter.
Be everwell.
Interesting to realize that, as an 80-year-old senior citizen, in some ways I am still age-phobic and an ageist. So, back to the “processing” process to take a closer look at why I hold these ageist ideas and how I might change them for myself and for others.

Good day!
*Mount Sentinel. If you look close, there’s an M on it. Behind it is University Peak.
Right after sunrise on this chilly day, I’ll depart on a hike down Hellgate Canyon. If possible, it’ll be a long hike. I could see some drizzle.
This afternoon? Editing.
Be everwell.

Good day!
Have to share this. It’s maximum zoom with my cheap phone. I finally caught a squirrel partaking of my morning offering on the Milwaukee Trail.
My April journal is setup. Another chapter is edited.
I’ll walk (winterish weather has returned), purchase Evie food, & edit.
Be everwell.

Good day!
I found it, the line between winter & spring.
For me, after so many days writing around other tasks, I have a day of peace for writing, though adversity has made me insanely productive.
My last hike was my longest in months, my legs eager to tackle more next week. Bring it on.
Be everwell.

Good day!
I took the Milwaukee Trail to explore the wild areas along the river across from downtown.
Nostalgia on my part? No, sorrow.
While our skyline grows, these areas decay. There’s neglect, restrictive fencing popping up, & expanding homeless encampments.
All thanks to our gov’t-slashing Republican governor.
5.1 sad miles.
Be everwell.
You know normally I wouldn’t attack a woman’s appearance, but all bets are off when it comes to Nazis. so what the fuck is up with this fucking hag’s hair? Who the fuck is she supposed to be Cruella De Vil? Every time I look at this fucking stupid face it’s just cringe. #tulsigabbard #disgusting #aging #oldnazis #villian ##embarassment #nationalembarassment

Good day!
Shortly, I’ll head east on the Milwaukee Trail for a hike along the river.
Over the next month, I’ll extend that to include Hellgate Canyon, Mt. Sentinel, & Pattee Canyon. Then, I’ll expand my horizons again.
Later, I’ll edit a chapter & reach 67% on Book3. Milestones, I note them all!
Be everwell.
My death is not imminent, maybe 5 or 10 or 20 years in the future, but by processing it now, I will be better able to die gracefully.
