Blah. Can't sleep -- too much pain.

I'm sorry, Hil. I had trouble sleeping last night as well.

ltc is handling the lack of grandparents this morning pretty well. I think she missed her play yard with all her toys. We brought toys with us, but the play yard is positively filled with toys.

I feel like I should be getting in some exercise during the summer. But I feel silly exercising inside when it's nice out, but if I exercise outside, then people will see me.

It is way too hot to exercise outside. So exercise inside, and don't feel silly.

Yeah, what that Cincinnatian ^^^ said. I don't know what the Oakley Rec Center facility is like, in term of track/treadmills/etc., but it's super cheap to join the CRC to work out.

I've got some yoga videos I can do. If I wait until it's dark out, then I won't feel like I should be outside. I can sit outside and read while it's light out. (My plan today was to order lunch from a place down the street, then walk over there to pick it up, because I'm not even getting the usual exercise I get from walking around campus, but then it started pouring rain right when I was about to go, so I drove two blocks to pick up lunch.) Tomorrow, I will walk to the doctor's office to pick up a prescription, and then to the library to get a library card (because I keep meaning to do that and not doing it), so that will be something.

When I was a kid, my mother was pretty insistent that, if it was nice weather and daylight, then kids should be outside. I frequently climbed a tree and read there. It feels wrong to be inside if there's not, like, a hurricane or over 100 degrees or something.

Our kids run around outside too. My 6 yo nephew was here visiting and playing in the playground and swimming like it wasn't in the 90s. Me, not so much.

I was just outside reading, and one of my neighbors came back from a run.

It's too fracking hot to be outside.
