First hour of #hareday and we are on the bounce!
The day starts with me putting up my mat to make room for my office chair. I built this little space for me, and I'm rather happy with it.
Next, the day always starts with a 3 minute plank and a big glass of water, so this is the other mat in my life.
Time for meds!
Next, I get cleaned up a little, make coffee, sit in meditation, and then I'm off to the gym!
This one was a little harder to photograph in a way I thought was interesting. Chores are a big part of my morning routine. There is a joy to be found in setting things to order. I actually like sweeping quite a bit.
What else would you guys like to see? I’m kinda blown away by the response especially given the hours posted.
#hareday is your day!
One last #hareday post. I'd like to talk a bit about "intentionality".
I never unpack, my suit case is my dresser, and that's my toiletries bag there on top. I try to follow an essentialist and somewhat ascetic philosophy. When I travel, my sleeping mat goes with me, as does my bowl, spork, and lid which I use as a plate.
I use the same things each day. When I shower, I sea shower, and try to limit myself to 2 minutes of water.
This is not me trying to virtue signal it's about living with simplicity, and some would say ascetically. I aspire to a more ascetic life because it works for me. It's also about minimizing my impact on the world around me, "go gently out into the world, tread carefully with love and joy upon the good earth, and be kind to whomever you meet"
So these are some of the reasons I do the things I do and live the way I do.
Why the Camo bag? I saved for months and months to buy that in the hopes it would last a lifetime, so far so goo, and they were out of grey, but they had the tacticool version, so I went with it.
@NiveusLepus I want to cuddle the toy bunny. ❤️
@Cynanthrope That bunny was a gift back in college. She's been with me half my life. ^_^
@NiveusLepus So you pull the fire alarm at the Gym before you begin your workout? 😂 Good job, your tenacity to be healthy is admirable.
@NiveusLepus Way to go, friend! I'm happy for and proud of you!
I'm going to enjoy #hareday !
@NiveusLepus Me too. Sweeping!
@gemswinc I find it to be meditative, and then there's a tangible result.
It's a groovy task.
@NiveusLepus Exactly!
Anything at all! Just sharing your day with us is nice.
It makes me feel like a normal person with real friends and stuff.
@BarelyAwake I think I’m real.. and I’m your friend 🐇❄️
We all think we're real, don't we. We're all part of the One, and only some of each of us is real.
I'm trying to keep it real!
@NiveusLepus it is always interesting to see how other people live. 🙂 You are not likely to see much visual evidence of my life here. Where I share my soul, I don't share my physical world. It is about safety and compartmentalising to maintain said safety.
@Cynanthrope Totally understandable. We all have different levels of comfort with visibility. It was an interesting exercise for me, stepping out of my comfort zone a bit and taking a chance.
@NiveusLepus I am very protective of my career and other resources. There is a lot of paranoia about losing resources that are not easily replaceable in my world.
@Cynanthrope I remember you speaking on this before. The human world can be a scary place, I know. They can be challenging.
@NiveusLepus very true. I rely on them for my survival, hence I can't piss them all off and be okay with it.
@NiveusLepus thanks for sharing!
@SECRET_ASIAN_MAN You are most welcome!
It's been a ride, I didn't expect to get the responses I did, and they are still coming in. I"m truly moved that so many people are interested in me and my eccentrics ways.
@NiveusLepus We are so different yet are at peace here together.
@SECRET_ASIAN_MAN The glory of creation is in its infinite diversity.
We all have this world and this time in common.
Truly, I'm grateful for the connection, it's a joy to know you.
Happy Friday, beautiful soul. Hope you have a wonderful day 💞
@JoyfullyDazed Thank you for being a part of that wonderful day. ^_^
Your tree house is ready whenever you need it. No key required. 😂😜
@JoyfullyDazed I am overjoyed, neighbor! ^_^
@JoyfullyDazed @NiveusLepus
G’Morning! 🌻☕️
@j0n @JoyfullyDazed Good morning Jon! How's your heart today?
Hey, Jon...hope you're doing well. 💕
@JoyfullyDazed Ditto Lisa❣️
@NiveusLepus
Just wanted to chime in and say how much I appreciate you sharing yourself in this way 💛☀️
@Minholkin Thank you. I confess to being uncertain of what people take from it, but am quite happy it means things to my coso buddies!
@NiveusLepus Good morning!
@poemblaze Good morning my most excellent friend. How's your coffee?
@NiveusLepus Non existent. I hate coffee. And since my surgery in late July I've mostly quit caffeine.
@poemblaze Are you recovering ok? Feeling better?
@NiveusLepus I'm at 90% or better.
@poemblaze Sounds like a positive trend two months out!
@NiveusLepus Yes. I'm grateful all went well.
@poemblaze Me too! I am glad you are around!
@NiveusLepus And likewise!
#hareday continues!
Done with the gym. Things are on schedule and
on the bounce. Now to head home and do chores.
I had to lower my weight as I was training with a new bar that was much wider. Had to take the weight off.
