Battling a cold today. Surprised myself by going out this evening for a walk and then some exercises. 

Today I began compiling/editing/designing a book of my travels from 2012. Mostly photos and poems which I will self publish, just a few copies for myself and friends. Hard to believe book publishing is available to anyone with a desire!

Ran to Safeway. Feeling a little better, around 80%, so taking it easy.

Got up before the sun came up and walked to the school yard and did some exercises. As the light arrived I admired the town hills covered in cold mist. Feeling mostly recovered, but I sprained something in my neck, making it hard to sleep.

Walked to the school yard for some exercises. Pretty chilly, my hands went numb so quit after 4 sets.

Another all-blue-sky day, and it was in the 50's! Pleasant run on the Amazon/Rexius then on to Market of Choice for home made pizza ingredients.
