28. Let me tell you about my addictions.
Mon Dec 4, 2023, 12:18 AM
Dec 2023

Exercising/squatting/walking/hiking: I have a sacroiliac joint issue and to keep myself mobile and from keeping the SI Joint from flaring up. I work out on a regular basis.


Music: I regularly listen to music while I'm working out. Sometimes I listen to music while I'm not working out.


Experimenting in the kitchen with new recipes. I'm gluten-free and I'm on Keto. Sometimes I need to switch things up when it comes to food and desserts.


Reading. I like to read when I have the time to do so.


Gardening. I seem to be able to keep Ivy Geraniums alive and flourishing. It's the only type of flower/plant that enjoys my company. I currently have two Ivy Geraniums in my kitchen
and they're still green and have blooms. *Knock on wood* they keep on flourishing for summer of 2024.


Solitaire. I always keep a deck of cards in the house and I play solitaire frequently.


I have several battery operated candles throughout the house. They turn on and off at set times. I don't need anymore but I keep buying them.


Hanging out on DU. Especially the lounge where it's generally cool, calm and collect.


Hugs. I'm a hugger. I like hugs.
