Relationships, cont.

It's been a few days since I posted last. Have just been continuing to organize myself and hike every possible moment. I spent Thursday night with the old man and for once it was just nice and pleasant and not intense. I spent Friday night playing trivia then back home. I'm going to hike in New Jersey tomorrow with some friends, with or without the old man. His little habit of stopping to smoke every 15 minutes is what kept us from making it a permanent venture the first time around. I'm really ready to move on this time. I broke one of my own rules by taking up with him again. Don't look back, I always say! And we only just got back from a trip to Springer Mountain which was way too much togetherness. He wants me to move in with him and once I tell him flat out "no" that I've got a place then it will really be over. He is going to be pissed and I don't want the stalking again. Not the evil stalking, it it the mooning over me stalking where he tries to show up where he thinks I might show up.

I just made a delicious salad of tomatoes, lemons, vidalia onions, mung bean sprouts, avocado, and grapeseed oil. I'm eating a bowl now, and my tastebuds are happy, happy! I love to eat lots of raw fruits and veggies, and I want to get back to the juicing habit. Probably won't do that until Monday or Tuesday when the holiday activities subside. After we clear some more of the clutter here, I'm hoping to get Crazy Girl on the hiking trail this afternoon, this time on Mt. Joy in Valley Forge Park. The key is to make the time for hiking and do it regularly for good health. Walking is the most natural motion for the human body. We were designed for it!

It is so nice not to have a huge list with tons of stuff to do. I am finishing up my one weekly load of laundry and will do the few dishes. Basically, there is only the clutter in two rooms to deal with and the day is free. Then he gets off at late tonight so I may not stay with him. We have to get up really early for the hike and I sleep better in my sleep number bed anyway.
