Monday
So, what did Maslow’s first tier look like today? Well, campers. Since you asked. Alarm was set for 8 I reset it in the predawn twilight for 8:45. I got up at 8:30 after jousting with unconsciousness for some undetermined period. Showered. Wiped blood outta the bowl. A lot but it’s lower GI stuff so I’m not super freaked out. Back upstairs. 30 push-ups. Used to be 60 but that was like in May. Seven months ago and despite rigorous effort at maintenance, there continues to be at best a plateau with the only numbers showing improvement being average resting heartrate. Made it 35 pushups. HR i Right hand is numb. It’s mostly numb these days and I’m constantly fidgeting and massaging the warped tendons creasing the back of my hand. Sigh. Dress pants. I’ve got like one pair really and they might be the same ones I got married in. The fabric seems to have shrunk over the years but it’s still passable formal. Find a black shirt. Only have a t and it’s v-neck. No sport coat any longer.
