It looks like the typhoon rain will start this evening and then continue Tuesday and Wednesday. I’m going to roll up a bath towel and one smaller one and put them on my window sills this evening, hoping to avoid more damage to my walls and floor. I’ll leave my bucket right there, too. I may get a lot of exercise wringing out towels and trying have enough dry ones to replace them the next couple of days.
At the gym this morning, I started slow and then increased my incline % to “4” and my speed to “4” for most of my walking time. I did rest my wrists on top of the handle bars, though, because I was feeling a bit shaky.

I have yet ANOTHER annoying habit to try to stop (!) – I unconsciously reach up and put my finger in my ear to scratch it, followed by the same on the other one. Since I’m now lucky enough to have hearing aids, I now realize how OFTEN I do that – now that I have something IN my ears. I’m teaching myself to ignore it for a full minute. If I STILL want to scratch my ears, I’ll then take out my hearing aids, scratch, and then put them back in. So far, it isn’t worth the effort.
Brian is working and studying today. I will write my blog posts and then choose another fun thing to do! 😜 Have a great day!

I wonder if your ears are itching BECAUSE of the hearing aids? Interesting! Glad you’ve found a way to stop the scratching. Great self talk there, Linda!

I don’t think so. I think it’s just an unconscious, annoying habit I need to stop. What’s working is that I have lumped this in mentally with people who pick their noses in public. Disgusting – so it gives me a graphic reason to stop.😋

Oh! Well, that’s certainly seems like a good way to stop the habit, Linda!
