Friday Five – 2020.02.07

  1. Can you do simple sewing repairs, such as replacing a button or rejoining a straight seam? No, but simple sewing is on my list as something I’d like to learn this year.
  2. Can you change a flat tire? Yep. The last one we changed was for the Prius at Big Bend National Park
  3. Can you plan and cook a simple meal? Yes. I’m okay at the main dish, but side dishes stump me.
  4. Can you rewire a lamp? No, electrical things make me nervous.
  5. Are you a spender or a saver? Are you able to switch from one to the other on occasion? I am more of a saver, but occasionally I have spending phases.

Today’s photo is the movie “poster” at the theater. The movie was very good! I’m happy it wasn’t overly gory.

I met my friend at the Moviehouse and Eatery theater to watch The Wonderland tonight, but we arrived a bit early so that we could enjoy a drink at the bar before the show. The Old Fashioned was excellent! The movie was fun, and I went home very happy.

I hope you had a nice evening!

Soreness

“Bicycle” Austin, 2020

Back to work today and my body is sore which is understandable since we hiked so far this weekend. Of course we have so many pills that we can take to relieve the pain, but the soreness that I have is something I actually welcome. I’m not injured, which is good, so soreness is just a reminder that I was pushing my limits on the trail. No need to dull this pain with drugs. We all put so many things in our body and bloodstream that if I can avoid adding more to it, I will.

This evening, I dropped Koa off at his orchestra rehearsal and had a couple hours of free time, so I decided to take a stroll around the west side of downtown Austin. Yes, I was sore, but not too sore!
