The Apple Fitness app is encouraging “Shit” (aka Me) to “stay in the groove” after doing more than enough to meet my fitness goal yesterday. 

There were a couple of reasons why that was so easy to do yesterday but the biggest contributing factor was this gorgeous weather we’re having in North Texas these days. Unseasonably warm temps along with sunny skies make it easy to opt to walk places where I might normally choose the bus or Uber. 

Today is also supposed to be another beautiful day but I don’t really have anything planned to go do. I’m going to think of something, though, because not only will moving around outside improve my physical health, it also does wonders for my mental health. The kids call it “touching grass.” I’ll end up touching plenty of grass today. 

I was asked by a superior at work yesterday about my plan where continuing to work at U-Haul is concerned. I’ve been hinting at moving on from there since my eyes are no longer hindering me from getting a much better paying job. At the time I didn’t have a definitive answer for him but now that I’ve had some time to think about it I still don’t know the exact timing but what I DO know is that I want to continue to work in a capacity that keeps me moving and preferably outside. 

Yesterday also marked 19 months of not drinking and gambling and when I look at lifestyle changes that have kept me on track not being chained to a desk is one of them. 

So I guess the goal now is to find challenging work that allows me to continue to toil in the elements but pays significantly better than U-Haul. I gotta believe there are plenty of jobs to be had that meet that requirement and don’t leave me to beat down physically when the day is done. 

As always, I’ll pray and trust that God will provide for me in the end.
