Happy March! Cold and snowing here this morning.
Glad last week is done, had to deliver a big project update to the CIO and his team end of day Friday. It went fine, but was stressed all week.
Actually relaxing this morning

Glad it's looking good here with weather. Mostly 60 days & 40 nights now. think we're past any real cold stuff, beyond a light frost on occasion.

Time to get garden plants started!!

glad it went ok. for me the worst thing is waiting for something else to happen like that.

my biggest stresses are waiting for someone else as then i may spend more time thrashing than actually getting anything accomplished (i have a high overhead for switching tasks). if i'm smart i'll work on decluttering or spot cleaning during times like that because then i'm not wasting energy that i could otherwise use for real effect - in this small room it doesn't take much to improve things a great deal.

On the last of my coffee, then up to start the day. Slept past 6, that’s late for me. Long list of things to do, gotta pick something and get started.

sunny but cool today (high of 24F and windy) cold tonight down into the teens, then gradually warming up to the mid-week and rains. mid-50F by Wed.

Warm, sunny day yesterday turned into a big wind event -- from north, cold, steady and all night! Like a storm front. Thankfully a dry one. Woke me a few times overnight. Breezier than I like now but, it'll pass. I'm taking a "rest day" today -- minimal must do, like feed chores, then some inside laundry, etc. Mostly couch potato day. Too many work hrs last week, fewer but still full this week. I need some slack. Set my own schedule, so my fault.

Back to mind still thinks I'm 30 yrs younger!!

Windy as the dickens yesterday here, too on the western side of Va.... got cold last night... 19 overnight.

Sun is out, wind died down. Ought to be nicer later, as the air warms up some. No wind will make even the 40's feel halfway comfortable...

it is interesting, in some ways i feel a lot better now than i felt for many many years, there's only a few things where i feel worse but those are things that are just going to be as they is.

stamina wise, yep, i'm not at all close to what i was like before, i no longer even try to walk 3 miles each day plus gardening, i don't even think of it any more. for gardening i have to work back into it each season and gradually i get things done and that is how it goes. if i do things wisely i don't injure myself and the season goes well - if i'm not wise and do something silly then i pay for it until it heals up and the gardens may not be as i'd have liked otherwise.

i have however also gardened with various broken or messed up body parts. i figure it out and work around it as best i can.
