New Year

I'm still participating in my challenge.
I'm exactly halfway through the 28-day challenge.
I have completed 251,000 steps well ahead of my 400,000 goal.

I was talking to lawyer yesterday that told me he goes through a similar cleanse starting January 1st. He called it an Irish Holiday. A lot of people will be starting their January booze break today. I told him that while I do not participate in New Years eve celebrations, it is right now that I'm feeling the best about my challenge. He will be hungover and starting a month long fast, while I will be feeling fresh and halfway through.

I'm continuing my study of the Hare Krishna movement and in particular the Krishna West controversy. I'm also studying videos on how to train a parrot. I have no intention of ever getting a parrot and I'm likely too old now to get one as they can live 70-years. I just want to be an expert on training parrots.

What I should be doing is studying Spanish for when I retire to warmer climes. That is my goal this year to improve my language skills.
