Same ol' routine..

 Nothing new this week. My life has been pretty boring and predictable. I am burnt-out at work and have to force myself to go in every morning. It is leaving me feeling lazy and uninspired. The doubting demons are lurking and I often wonder why I have the goals I have to take on such challenging treks. 

There is rain in the vicinity today and is forecast to hang around through the weekend. I'm sure that means that I will not be going hiking on Sunday. A bit bummed about it too as my daughter is in town, and my son stopped by earlier this week and will be back on Sunday. I have his dog King visiting in the meantime and I do enjoy hiking with him. 

The only positive is that physically I feel great. I recently switched to a mostly plant-based diet. I do allow limited dairy, some fish, and a few servings of meat every-other week. I'm finding though that my appetite for meat lessens with each passing week. I eat a lot of vegan soups, especially for lunch, and I love a vegan Buddha Bowl for dinner. I found a great recipe for crispy Korean tofu that makes a great protein in the Buddha bowl. That along with brown rice, edamame beans, avocado, mixed salad greens with an Asian ginger dressing makes for a very tasty and satisfying meal. Another plus is that my grocery bill has dropped quite a few dollars each week. 

So anyway that's about it for this weeks update. Sorry so boring.

Here are a few pics from last Sunday's hike. More flowers in bloom!







And my Tofu Buddha Bowl (and a bottle of Soju!..
