One month complete!!
Today was a little bit of a challenge as we drove to Iowa after work. I snuck in my walk after work which meant we arrived even later at our final destination. The bigger challenge was water consumption and a 4 hour drive! Really that just meant I had a lot of water to drink when we arrived. And finding food that was compliant with the Mediterranean diet on the road!
Luckily gas station food has improved!
Still in the heatwave! Almost 50 today. At yesterday’s appointment I also got the Covid and Flu vaccines so I was feeling a little sick this morning. So I just did 45 minutes of yoga.
I felt better as the day went on! And enjoyed the warm walk! We went out on the ice again. But not as far out today.
We are in a heat wave! Afternoon walk was wearing a hoodie with my vest! I also got some diagnostic biometric testing done. Everything came back normal except Vitamin D.
A lot of people still have Christmas decorations up! We saw this on our evening walk! It kinda scared Daisy!
I actually finished reading Tribe yesterday but forgot while I was writing my post. As I mentioned in the Day 23 post, it was part of Go Ruck’s boom club.
Overall, I liked the premise of the book, we all do better when we are connected to people around us and feel some shared goals/outcomes. He gave examples of how Western society looks down on more communal cultures, but how historically when given the chance people would prefer living in the communal “tribes”.
He gave several examples and a few times while reading I got bogged down in the examples and forgot the main point of the book/chapter.
It is a relatively easy read. And is actually timely as our communities and country are being fractured. We may be building groups of like-minded people, but ultimately the collective group of the USA is becoming more divisive which runs counter to a productive society.
