Happy May, Happy Beltane!

Some notices for today:
  • It's Pride Day everyday outside for the "duration of the emergency"
    • Hope you [fine folk] like rainbows!
  • With the turn of the heavens from Dragon to Snake, so ends an era of experiments and research
    • Going to turn slowly from "trying new stuff" to focusing and improving what we have
  • Only Netflix has robust multi-language support for streaming videos (still, years later)
    • All of the streaming service apps are terrible and keep getting worse.
Health and fitness?
  • Daily-ish stretching is mostly on track. Progress versus 3-5 years ago is remarkable and I should celebrate it more. Brains are specifically bad at staying on that and appreciating enough.
    • I can do rises and pliees freestanding, and even get into Tree pose for a few breaths!
    • None of those things were possible without a chair, door frame, or risk of a bad fall years ago.
  • Got back into the home gym for a TLS 4.0 workout (at light weights) for the first time this year.
    • That needs to be three times a week again, starting next week.
  • Numbers are okay and may have arrested the slide away from goals that started in the election/holiday season late last year.
Need to make time to read more novels, have a few queued up in series we follow and enjoy (it's not smut; it's cliterature!)

How about y'all?
