This morning I was out of bed at 5 AM, fed the cats, washed their
dishes, cleaned their litter pans, had my coffee, and by 9 AM the sun
was up and the dew was gone, so I spent three hours walking... pushing
a lawnmower... clearing around all the trees, buildings, etc., then
six hours on the tractors..., then washed the tractors, put everything
away, got me showered and by then it was dark out... dinner was a can
of Progresso low fat ministrone, right from the can, and two of my
raisin bran muffins... I don't need an exercize program to limber up.
