Time to Recover

 

As promised, here is the DuoLingo sticker I earned this morning:


Got it first thing this morning, and then later in the morning one of my DuoLingo buddies posted, "Neuf ans! Incroyable!" I thought, "Nine years, incredible what?" and then I realized he meant I've been on DuoLingo for nine years. And yet I'm still only fluent in English...

Today I had so much to do that I made a list, and then I checked everything off except two things that got added during the day, so I'll do those tomorrow. The one thing that was strange today was when I was walking and praying the rosary, suddenly I couldn't walk any further - not literally, but I had two more decades to go and couldn't walk that much. I was in the Allen Centennial Gardens, and the free campus bus picks up right outside, so I hopped on it, still praying the rosary, and took it for three stops. That sounds lame, but how many students would be paying any attention to the plump middle-aged lady to notice she only rode for three stops? Then I looked at my FitBit and realized I had almost all my steps for the day. I thought I would have recovered by my afternoon break, but I got outside and couldn't take another step, so I sat and prayed a Divine Mercy Chaplet on a bench in the sun. What's going on? Am I coming down with yet another virus? My FitBit has been yelling at me lately for overdoing it, so maybe it just caught up to me. Tomorrow I work from home, so it will be a far lazier day. That should give me a chance to recover.
