In the spirit of minimalism, I am going to resume my personal journaling on here rather than in my notebook.

It was a decent day today, work went well and took a break from running, just did some strength exercises. Was able to clear a few more items out today as well, it is slow progress but still progress. I am appreciating getting to a point in my life where I can research and bring things into my life that will last and potentially outlive me. As of now, I am only replacing sub par quality items or other disposable items that I have, I have no intentions on adding items. Going to replace my disposable razor cartridges with a safety razor this week, I have been keeping track of some Gillette Fat Boy safety razors from the 1950’s and 1960’s on eBay and they will last much longer than I will and the blades are cheaper, better quality, and better for the environment because of less plastic waste. I can accumulate and then recycle the blades when they are too dull to use. Getting prepared for the 5K race this weekend too, it will be my first race and I feel that I have adequately prepared for it. I was able to run two 10K days on the weekend and I should have around a 31 minute time for the 5K race. Not trying to win, my goal will be to finish and not be redirected away from the stadium because it took me too long.
