It’s early December, a Saturday, and it’s been raining all day here in the Bay Area, another cold rain like the storm two days ago. We need the rain; we’re still behind average rainfall for the season. Still, the rain lasting throughout the entire day is unusual here.

With a goal of 5000 steps a day set on my iPhone, I’ve achieved my goal for over three weeks currently, even though a couple times they were done by walking around the house, back and forth and around and around, while watching Jeopardy or the news.
