Dutch Lock Down Day Seventy Six

[Now With More GISH]

With everything else that’s happening in the world and in LeanderLand, I completely forgot about this weekend’s GISH.

It’s a massive scavenger hunt thing.

Normally a week long.

Intensified, shortened, and modified to twenty four hours in light of COVID.

But first the news:

It’s an intense time right now and I’ve been protecting myself, quite a bit – keeping my head in the sand to maintain mental resilience.

Well, GISH just ripped me right out of my comfort zone.

And more interesting overall.

Or something.

But first the news:

First part of story with a cliffhanger or punch line to get you to click past the READ MORE.

Or something.

I never thought I’d be super excited to go work out.

But I SO TOTALLY AM.

I’m especially super chuffed to see my personal trainer cause she’s awesome and she’s guaranteed to make me sore and she’s so totally going to get me fit again.

With my help.

Over a longer span of time than just, say, one hour tomorrow morning.

But first the news:

I even went on a super long walk today and totally got ten thousand steps in!

What is happening, Warriors?

[Is This Normal Yet?]

Are you starting to normalize?

I am.

Sorta.

But first the news:

There are all kinds of signs that my brain is starting to chill the fuck out but also all kinds of signs that there’s a long way to go.
