Managed to walk around the house some without using the walker today! Even went outside and got the mail. Left leg's still booted for another few weeks, but this shows definite progress.

It almost makes up for my current bout of tech issues. Something's preventing me from burning CDs on my laptop. I tried transferring the songs to another laptop, but these CDs wouldn't burn there either. Perhaps the bottom 2/3 of the current CD spindle are indeed defective.

nough hassling w/it for now. Gonna keep on listening to music and'll eventually get this resolved - or figure out another process to follow. I've had enough good stuff to make today a minor win.

Despite not getting up until nearly Noon, it's been quite a productive day. Used the Domino Effect to my advantage. Wanted to cook while looking outside the kitchen window at the next-door neighbor's camellias blooming oh-so-nicely. First, then, I had to move everything off the window ledge. Secondly I had to dust the ledge. Thirdly, I had clean off all the items before replacing them (moving them around as needed), so I could finally Windex the window.

Mind you, I hate dusting with a passion, so find it astonishing and pleasing that I did this. Taking this as evidence that eating better and working out is helping with my energy levels. One Spring Cleaning goal (as in before Spring ends ;-): FULL HIVE MAGNUM DUSTING. Perhaps Baby Steps is the way to go rather than try to Dust All The Things, which I find incredibly daunting. Even if it's slow and steady such that when done at the end it's time to start again where I began (kitchen window), at least stuff's getting dusted and cleaned throughout the year/season.

Anyway, once I got my desired view, I made a vat of chili. Tasty - and good going WW-wise. One (1) cup of chili costs only one (1) WW point! So dinner consisted of chili w/grated cheddar, sour cream, and avocado. Heavenly!

While and after cooking, I finished 95% of a compilation (LightHouse), made more travel plans (monthly trips for next 3 months, with another likely in May that I've barely begun thinking about), browsed news websites along w/FB & InstaGram, read s'more of The Amber Spyglass in anticipation of the BBC production due out in April, and took care of this and that.

Now back to the annual Downtown Abbey cold weather rewatch. Fingers crossed for snow!
