Going to the gym this morning
JCC few blocks away
and although I do not like the gym
not physically fit never jogged even once
do not take dance classes either I am going to the gym
because I am at the fall apart age
some things I still want to do involving
moving body parts so I made an appointment
because of Covid timed entrance timed exit
no saunas my favorite part and I will
do my best to encounter those odd looking machines
cope by listening to an audio book, probably Graham Greene.
ADDENDUM to yesterday’s poem:
(Can a poem have an addendum? Why not.)
Famous birthdays yesterday (Peter found this out):
Thelonius Monk, John Prine, Verdi.
good plan, working out is the key to staving off frailty as well as cognitive decline. and starting on John Prine's birthday seems so appropriate. We might have had his wonderful songs a few more years if only....
Fall apart age, very descriptive. I feel your pain! Birthday addendum-Prine and Verdi and Monk would make an interesting trio!
