Penguins for $1.06

Escaped through the drifts to see Cynthia Monday morning. Considered the snowy trek a more thorough test drive. Not letting this winter day be an excuse to derail operation Body Health/Rebuild Muscle. Ribs are near healed. I was coached through my full weight training routine. Actually I received extra attention/time due to being one of the few who showed up.

Tim directed me to ask AI for the Four Steps to Building a Routine. I did. Turns out Claude says I’m already doing better than I thought—many of the steps are already in motion. One missing piece: a wall calendar for tracking. Rather than X’s, I’ll use short codes to log what activity, when, and where. I’ll need to track down an appropriate Sharpie out of the art chest. Over the weekend I stopped at Half Price Books and found a 2026 calendar for $1.06. I chose penguins. Exactly appropriate for a blizzard Monday. Showing Cynthia the calendar was worth every cautious, snow-covered mile.

The November drive north in a rental Escape offered some winter driving experience — but different vehicles, different snow, fresh nerves all the same.

Jon, the Ford salesman, sent me a post sale inquiry. The email was still inbox, unanswered. Finally, the weather offered the perfect prompt for a one line reply to him about my snowy test drive. My positive report won me a cheer.

A calendar check off activity the penguins will witness is a complementary Princeton Club personal trainer session. I will investigate InBody assessment.
