Not sure I’m fast enough to chase a dog but it could be good training.

I do and I also run up and down every backstreet. I’ll download the pic and keep an eye out for him.

It had a very mysterious feel to it. Like the opening scene in an old Godzilla movie.

No problem. Kids are awesome but it’s hard. And I still get summer anxiety. I find my self yelling things like, “hey, stay inside and play video games!” Also, keep an eye out for local parks with a water feature or little kiddie pool. I use ours more than my kids after I run.

And think about how to change and take advantage of your limited space at home. Make mamatomo’s and play at each other’s house. And take care of yourself. The worst days will suck but you will make it. I have three kids and have vague memories of some rough days but they are soon forgotten.

Good advice above. I used the baby carrier for short walks and always had a baby shaped sweat stain on my shirt but we survived. I used a baby hat or parasol for shade. Stroller cover works too. Keep walks short with a cool destination. Visit the nearest fureaikan and play there.

Especially if you are riding a crowded Saikyo Line train.

Was a great day. One of the best ever.

True. I wasn’t even thinking about that. I was more concerned about hitting a tree.

Just my phone camera, that’s why it’s so shaky and I’m going so slow.

Akakura Kanko in Myoko. I usually don’t go through trees but the conditions were perfect. Should be epic all week but I had to leave last night.

I had my first seizure at 50. Never knew adult epilepsy was a thing. It could also be the medicine affecting my memory.

My memory has suffered a lot the last couple years. It’s probably a bit of Covid, getting old and bring diagnosed with adult epilepsy a couple years ago.

So did you get out for the run? Are you still lost in the trap?

Do it. But what do you mean by Trap?

Haha, that is so accurate.

Why do they need to use it, or any word that offends someone or a group?
