A new year reprise

 

It's now officially 2026.  Slept poorly last night; probably ate too late.  Katey came over and we watched the last two episodes of Stranger Things which were riveting.  Really enjoyed all the seasons of this program with the kids growing into teenagers and graduating from high school.  If you have the opportunity, watch it on Netflix.

This day will be a quiet one with some snow shoveling.  I pace myself better now with the effort and temperatures.

So, I made pasta sauce early in the day yesterday, tomato based.  Shared it with Katey last evening watching over spaghetti.  I ate late.  Glucose numbers (my measurement of health) were pretty good this morning.  Has to be due to mixing protein with carbohydrate.  This condition is always puzzling to me.

Our social security 2026 increase amounts to $2 a month after the Medicare/Medicaid cost increases for this year. What an annual raise.

It's the next day, still cold, still winter.  Watched a recent film called Boyhood. It took twelve years to film and showed the main character and his family in their evolution in actual years.  Basically it was a window into the lives of this family over that duration.  While it was a massive effort,  I missed some of the nuances and the subtleties.  I am always looking for an ending with summation.  I missed it here.  Lots of people loved this movie including my wife; me not so much.

Going back to the gym today to try to beat some life back into this body.
