Finally summer weather. Oh wait, it's the end of August, and summer hours are over. Figures. But, I'm not complaining; I'll take whatever nice weather we can get and for however long we can get it.
I thought I did a lot today. Laundry, framing pictures, making cards, gardening, driving kids around.. But looking at my pedometer, I've only accumulated 5500 steps. The best work out was pulling weeds. I swear some of those roots went down to the well water!!!!!
So I go to the website to record my steps and convert them to "space steps." I only have 51.9 km left till I get to the International Space Station. Being curious, I thought I would browse the web and see what's happening at the Station so I won't be surprised when I get there.... Below is a daily chart of what the crew did or will do on August 29th (not sure what time line it's on, so not sure if we are in the present, past or future.) Anyway, I'm not looking forward to the cooling loop scrubbing to elimate biomass and particulate matter. It's done twice during the day, and I don't care how scientific it sounds, I'm pretty sure it resembles cleaning bathrooms!!!! By the looks of the schedule I'm pretty sure I'd get my 10,000 steps in each day. And the pre-sleeps are right up my alley!!!!! I do have one complaint; what if you don't have to go to the bathroom at the designated times! That's if for BODY.
MIND: The gardening helped to calm my mind. I think I'm entering the "dark stage" of fall. Even though the sun is still shining, I can feel the winter blues coming on. Time to turn on the sun lamp and read some good books. As I was reminded by my sister, put the smile on my face and your mood picks up that much faster...Thanks for the reminder - do as I say, not as I do.!
Good night (or morning if you're on the space station reading this)(wonder if I'll get any comments from aliens)
