Wiped Out

I'm socially wiped out.  Also, a little physically drained too.  Too little sleep (up late, up early and broken sleep).  Low energy (month and eating outside of my usual).  Lots of working out and walking too.

I might need a couple of re-entry days to recover.  Best news is I have free sailing ahead.  Nothing big on the calendar until Thanksgiving.

Final day yesterday was nice.  Art district was a bit of a bust though.  We didn't walk the river walk because my girlfriend wasn't interested in walking.  Active art studios were interesting, but not what we were looking to see yesterday.  Taco place was PACKED -- couldn't even get a parking space so we ended up at a local place that has awesome outdoor space.  That was the highlight of our trek out.

Besties is never up for walking and that's a bummer.  I took a 4 mile walk up into the neighborhood mountain -- it was so beautiful on a picture perfect fall morning.  My girlfriend stayed home and read.  After lunch, we took a quick walk to Trader Joe's (she doesn't have one) and then she wanted to rest again.  I took another walk downtown by myself.  Lots of walks by myself this weekend.  That's okay though.  I enjoy being by myself and I was expecting this situation.  I worry about her though -- she's a busy, interesting person with lots of hobbies, but she doesn't move her body.  At our age, we can't afford to be that sedentary. 

This morning is a down-n-dirty clean and hitting the road home.  I did sheets and towels yesterday so that helps with timing a little.  I didn't get home from the airport until almost 7 o'clock and I wasn't in the mood to clean.  

I miss my pups and my hubby.  Time away is good.  Back together is good too.

Looks like I need a t-shirt that says I SURVIVED OCTOBER BIG THINGS.  Back-to-back big weekends in a pandemic and I'm okay.  Both trips were worth it and I'm grateful.

Back to regular life which is also worth it and also awesome.

Have a great day -- later gators.
