Today is the last day for pouring concrete on my side of the new building outside my terrace.  The building is about 9 stories on this side and then there is a section that's about 3 stories and then there is a tower that will be about 18 stories.  I cannot see or hear much of the construction in the center or far parts so today is likely the last day or loud non-stop loud droning.  

I'm grateful we did this in winter so that I get a good view since The Tree That I Hate is naked and I can close the door and not hear the droning.  Hammering and stuff I can handle but constant loud droning grates on me even though I try to ignore it.

I said something to [livejournal.com profile] machupicchu last night that I've been thinking about for a while.  And since last night, I've been chewing on it a lot.  I have no feeling for if/when I need more or different exercise to ensure I can still do stuff I want to do. 

Last Sunday I walked a long way and stood around for a fairly long while.  I got home fine, not even any panting or gasping but all afternoon, I felt like crap.  I felt like crap until after dinner when the crap lifted and I was fine.  

I did 10 minute of the simpliest of yoga the other day and some chores and my back and hips were killing me.  When I swim two days in a row, my hips hate it.  But when I swim every other day, they don't say a thing about it.

So... do I need more?  If I work through the pain and crap will I come out better on the other side?  Or will it just get worse?  At my age (oldish), at my weight (fat), with my lungs (shot), do I go the use it or lose it route?  Or should I preserve what I've got and not wear it out?  I'm chewing and researching...  I never ever want to again live in a world without Google.

I was going to go to a movie today - I want to see Any Day Now - but I think I'll do that next Friday.  I need to go to the small market for meet and a couple of other things.  Oh and I need to stop at Cash and Carry and lay in a case of Diet Dr Pepper.  Tomorrow is pet food store for litter and food and no cat adoption.

My calendar project is working well.  I'm being really anal about adding every tiny thing to the calendar and then keeping an eye on it.  So far, I haven't forgotten weeks or missed days like I was doing before.  Yeah me.

I cannot believe there is another random shooter.  This time at a school and a school I've actually been to!  When I lived in Connecticut, my friends had kids at that school and I went to their little program one day.  Guns give me the creeps and gun shooters are really beginning to annoy the shit out of me.  We can legislate a woman's right to make her own choices with her own body, we can legislate who marries whom - and all manner of things that hurt nobody...  but we can't seem to find any way to at least discourage dudes from shooting up places with people in them?  I think that's kind of nuts, actually.

Or as Ken Jennings just tweeted - his tongue must just grow out of his cheek - "If those elementary school kids had been carrying, like the Founding Fathers inteneded, this never would have happened."

I've got two packages Out for Delivery on the UPS truck today.  I think he should get here early today so he can make sure and get all his deliveries in... just saying.

I think I'll empty the dishwasher and hit the road.
