    Hopefully I can squeeze a walk in between the rain today. It's a good reset just to get out of the office for a little bit.

    Pretty rainy today so I'm glad I was still able to get a good walk in back and forth from HQ to the terminal while out at the Port. Though they're connected, it's still a good 15 min walk.

    I really need to make that appointment for my health! It keeps getting put at the end of my list and that needs to change.

    Left my phone at home while running errands today. Good way to avoid extra screen time.

    Traffic was pretty intense yesterday so I opted to walk home and enjoy both my 15 min without screen time and my daily walk!
