The doctor was serious. "You are getting too lazy for a 78 year-old. Watch your diet, then do some exercise to burn off a hundred calories every day."
A writer's life is sitting in a chair. I can't stand just exercising, pumping iron, push-ups. So, I had to come up with something interesting while getting a little exercise.
Our neighborhood has 23 McMansions on 1 acre lots. It's about one mile round trip to walk past them all. At my normal gait, it takes about 25 minutes. MtFitnessPal says 25 minutes at 3.5 mph is worth 129 calories. So that's what I'll do... but at first it might be a little boring.
But 25 minutes, doing a mindless task, allows the mind to wonder. Maybe I can make it into a mindless blog.
