06:35… it’s a little bit of an early start, but before I really get going, I want to add that bit to my Need/Want list, which I meant to do yesterday, but it sort of got away from me.
Needs
Need to survive
Need to help others survive
Need to support the cause I’ve attached myself to
Need to do it because I said I would
I have to have that
Instinctual need
Wants
Want that to entertain myself
Want to read that
Want to see that
Really want that to be mine
Really want to support that
Agreeable Notions
That sounds like a good idea
I’ll give that a try
If you don’t want it, I’ll take it
Disagreeable Notions
No thanks
That’s not a good idea
Not Wanting
I’ll stay away from that
What were you thinking?
Not Needing
My happiness depends on me not being involved with that
My happiness depends on me not having that
There, the instinctual need has been added to the current list.
Well, it was an early start, mostly because I made my second deposit and then I looked at the clock and it was only shortly after 06:00. That was my brain’s cue to get going and I wasn’t going to put up much of a fight. So, then I was off and running.
Shorts change: I went to go find the shorts first, next in line were some blue/greens.
Made the bed: I also tidied the bed.
Lung recruitment: all of that before the usual hob number one, which came in at number three this morning.
Bottle empty: the deposits were emptied.
Turn the coffee maker on: the tap water needed time to warm up and this needed to happen.
Wash up: I started washing a bit early, the hot water didn’t finally land until the second scrub.
Weigh-in: the phone and the scale weren’t talking again. The batteries must be going on it.
Computer logged on: I said ‘good morning’ to Elle.
Pills and vitamins: took the morning dose.
Deodorant: sprayed, yes.
Voltaren/Diclo10%: splashed, no. The experiment continues this morning.
Moisturiser: dolloped and spread, yes.
Shoulder brace: the brace wasn’t as easy this morning, but I eventually got it.
Shirt change: a bluer shirt today.
PowerBreathe: 30 inhales. (06:59) the first round is recorded.
Head start: (07:01) the step count today may not be pushed too hard, but the 10k still needs to be done.
07:21… the first timer is in the books and it was tougher, but I stuck to it. 2.6k and 3 Zone minutes to start. The streaks will be pushed today, but rest is needed. It’s a fine balance. I need more coffee.
07:24… I only have one banana left, so the Instacart order will need to be placed. I’m going to start some laundry and have that ready for Bipasha. I think those are my big items on the to do list.
Email:
Main account: a few pieces of junk and some promos there this morning.
Gmail: a Safeway promo here.
Upper Deck: the free pack was dull.
Facebook: two birthdays, only one got a nod. There were a few likes in the news feed. There were not very many memories today.
Twitter: one good tweet to like, but otherwise nothing.
Fitbit:
Steps yesterday: 35.6k, my best day in almost 3 years.
Floors: 45 were collected.
Active Minutes: 283 minutes.
Active Heart: 74 Zone minutes.
Active Hours: 10/10.
Sleep: 426 minutes, a good night’s sleep.
Weight: 172.2 pounds.
Stress Management: 81.
Readiness: 60. It feels like less.
RHR: 70 bpm, yesterday’s dropped to 71 bpm, so it’s finally going the right way.
Water: two are logged.
Challenge: 31.6k ahead of Sheldon.
Google Calendar: nothing on today.
Budget: nothing happened after the morning work.
Questrade: slight gains in both, but they’re still red for the week.
Fantasy Hockey: no new points here last night.
Sports Interaction: neither parlay paid yesterday. Seven bettable hockey games and six bettable American League baseball games, which made for five parlay bets. The Blue Jays can’t participate in parlay bets, but they can be game bets and with Alec Manoah on the hill today, a $5 bet was made.
08:24… the routine is done. It’s weird not having that grind of expectations today. It’s like a vacation of sorts.
08:43… the weird morning continues. I checked the Chromecast for the possibility of the Chelsea match against Tottenham and I’ll be able to see it at 12:45. I continued to look at the Chromecast while on the ball and I thought I would watch the New Mutants, a Marvel movie that I hadn’t seen yet, but then I remembered that I wasn’t done with the physio and it would be tough to watch with exercises that need to happen. If I get it done in good time, I’ll give the movie a watch before the Chelsea match.
08:48… it’s a lower body day.
08:53… okay, I’m ready now.
PowerBreathe: 30 inhales. (08:55) the second round is done.

Bosu Ball: (09:54) a complete timer was completed, 7.6k, 6 Zone minutes and 16 floors, most of those floors came from the physio work.
Protein shake: the last Boost vanilla shake is my reward.
09:58… there’s the physio done. It didn’t come with very many Zone minutes, so if there is work to be had, that’s the reason.
10:02… I shared the original link for the want/need post with Cousin Alex. I’ll be curious to see what she thinks.
10:12… the Instacart order has been placed. It shouldn’t be delivered until 15:00. I’m thinking that I’ll mix the smoothie and start the movie.
