A female primary care physician opines on money, travel, fitness, and other topics to be determined
Each week I have been logging my exercise. Mostly this is an activity for myself; it has, on occasion, prompted me to get up and move (“for the blog”).
It is also meant for encouragement, in case a busy reader wants to know how other people get their recommended exercise; I don’t think it’s easy to get enough exercise these days, and I think it does people a disservice to imply that it is.

As it is, I did plenty:
I think we are having a true staycation next month. I hope to enjoy a few more days of errand-clearing then.
Do you get satisfaction from clearing your to-do list? Or do you consider this a waste of a free day?

It cuts down on costs (at least $23, based on our return trip), and helps move the trip along, when you can pull out a sandwich instead of stopping to buy something. Packing a lunch is also good for your health. One may quibble about the health benefits of a PB&J, but it’s certainly better for me than what I might be tempted to get: burgers, fries, Dorito’s…
