Health and wellness check-in โ€“ 17 December 2023



I check in for a week summary of my health and wellness (social, mental, and physical) this past week (Monday 11 to Sunday 17 December 2023). It was a fun week with family visiting, a mental push week to keep on top of things, and physically good for making my workouts and weight maintenance.

0:31 – Social.
– Fed the critters all of their meals this week; interactions while walking/running (Jane Blaylock and Mike Doubleday on Monday).
– Wedding discussions with my parent(s) continued (third or fourth consecutive week overall this holiday season with names/pictures/location/print-outs/text, Dominik Szoboszlai and Jakob Ingebrigtsen, discussions in some form about the marriage/wedding/true love go back to approximately January/February 2018).
