Forget All Your Troubles and Go DOWNTOWN....

It's been foggy and damp and cold [for Texas] the last few days and I haven't gone out much to do any walking. When I did go out, it was just driving in the country, or to the store and back. A shut in has been my forte the last week, and I don't like it. One of the dreary days Bud and I watched the movie JOKER - only because of all the nominations and the high praise of excellence. I can't say anything good about it. Sinister and very mediocre both in script and acting. I wouldn't recommend this movie to my enemy even tho its purpose, I believe, is to give us why the Joker became the Joker in the first place [without giving out spoilers to his evil ways].  I am sitting here at the keyboard, trying to think of the best part of the movie for me...and I'd have to say  "The End"!!




Tuesday morning I made a point of leaving the house during the rush hour traffic [7:30ish] to make sure I got some steps counted for the day - in the fresh air -while the sky was clear!!   The first day in nearly a week with sunshine.  Altho the freeway traffic was stop and go for a few miles on two stretches, I finally got to the park. Granted, I had to take my time and not walk far since I've been recouping from a bad cold and my lungs still get wheezy if I over exert,  and now have to build my count up from scratch again.

This is what I saw:

Heavy rain is predicted, so this may be the only walk I get to finish until the weekend when it's supposed to have cleared out and get back to seasonal 70 degrees!!
