So. Today wasn't much in regards to Self Care. I updated/cleaned out my phone and apps, also I took a walk at work (I am super lucky that one of my coworkers likes to get sun/fresh air so we were able to take walks)

ElizaMarie @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I‘ll tag you to the original bingo card (basically just do it as you wish it to be done — I‘m tying to do at least one thing in my bingo card a day, some people are trying to get a bingo — just wanted to celebrate little self care) 4y

Couple degrees cooler in the woods. Hot out for a #Litsybitsy, I need to get out earlier in the day.
🚶🏼‍♀️2.45 miles, zero foot pain!
🎧 Mythos over 6 hours remaining

Now that the countries are opening up, for better or worse, anyone interested in an audiowalking photo challenge? More deets to follow. All are welcome.

LapReader Yes please! 4y

mcctrish It‘s been hot here, yesterday and today, so yesterday I audio ironed 🤣instead of walking 4y
Cuilin @mcctrish I love the audio variety. Audio ironing is great. Someone posted they were audio trench digging! Today I audio waterproof painted the bulkhead entrance to the basement. 😂 4y
mcctrish Ooo I have trench digging in my future 💪🏻 it sure makes the chores go faster and feel enjoyable 4y

Old pic but I did walk yesterday and listened to Sleeper‘s Castle by Barbara Erskine. No such luck today. It snowed last night 😠 it‘s cold, wet and pretty miserable so I‘ll have to content myself with some reading. 😉

4.4 miles and about 20 mins audio.

mcctrish I walked yesterday too but no pics to prove it and I have woken to snow flying about 2 days in a row. It doesn‘t stay but my magnolia tree has been hit with frost so it‘s horrid looking 😫 4y
Cuilin @mcctrish I hear you, snow in May is so cruel!! Luckily I love to curl up with a blanket and books. Though I‘ll have to do something physical. Maybe audioyoga? Could that be a thing? 🤔 4y

#BloomingBibliophiles Day 29: My husband and I #Walk religiously every day since the lockdown and work from home policy here in the UAE. Previously we alternated 2 hour and 1 hour walk each day, but now that the summer wind is here and we have to contend with a 41 degree weather that feels like 45, we just content ourselves with hour-long walks - 70-80 minutes max. :) 💕🧚🏼‍♀️👣👫

Leftcoastzen You guys look like you are doing great ! I got in a mile walk this A.M., hot here in AZ. 4y

It is stormy out today so the only walk I may get will be Jane Austen style of taking a turn about the room. It may be bright later so I hope to get out a some point. Meanwhile I‘ll enjoy some muffins and read my book. Hope it‘s lovely where you are. #litsybitsy

Lately I‘m having a hard time getting out to walk. This quarantine has totally effected my mood and I‘ve noticed others are experiencing the same. I thought we could help and inspire each other to get a “little bit” of exercise as we listen to books. Post a pic, name book. Distance? Anyone want to join in. Just use #Litsybitsy so we can find each other and tag me. Let me know if you would like to join in. No pressure. 🎧 📚🚶🏼‍♀️💕

runswithscissors007 Lovely idea. I am in. 4y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Me!! I‘m walking now with my daughter ❤️ 4y
BookmarkTavern What a great idea! ❤️ 4y

ImperfectCJ I like this idea! I was great about walking until last week when there started to be a lot of pressure to wear masks/facial coverings all the time outside, and I haven't had luck finding/making a mask that doesn't fog my glasses and/or make me feel like I'm suffocating. I suspect that I just have to get used to having my face covered...Maybe this will help me stop whining and just get outside! 4y
Cuilin @ImperfectCJ I had the same problem with a mask. I pull it up only when someone is near. 4y

Some pictures from my early morning #LitsyWalkathon adventures. I made this shirt for Nolan years back, but after too many runs through the wash it‘s too small for him, so now it‘s one of my favourite workout/pj shirts. I ended up napping from 430-6am, and now I‘m back at it. 💪🏻

Who‘s joining me in the #LitsyWalkathon on July 6?

Set your own goal! And it‘s open to all Littens!
(But I especially encourage all #BFC folks to participate.)

My goal is 20,000 steps with a stretch goal of 25,000 (weather permitting).

Who‘s with me?

This is hosted by the fabulous 100K team of @Clwojick & @CoverToCoverGirl 🚶🏼‍♀️🏃🏼‍♀️👟

Clwojick Woohoo! Way to go! That‘s a fantastic goal! (edited) 5y

Workout 1 of week 2 of #bfc was a long, brisk walk while my husband spun the merry go round at the park for the girls. I also finished book 2 of week 2. (Yeah I read an entire book yesterday and another today!)

Which reminds me that I‘m about 15 books behind in my reviews here. WHOOPS. Brace yourselves, I‘ve got catching up to do!

Walk and read, read and walk #SpotAReader

MicheleinPhilly For some reason this never bothers me. But I will have homicidal thoughts when someone is walking and staring at their phone. 5y
Awk_Word_Smith That is commitment right there. That is a rather large book to carry around on the daily commute. 5y

@BookaholicNatty I use my awesome bottle on my audio walk today. Thanks!

BookaholicNatty Yay!!!!!!! So glad! ❤️ I am seriously loving my bottle soooo much too! I put ice in it and left it in the car on accident one day when it was super duper hot and then several hours later when I returned it still had ice in it!!! It has seriously blown me away with how amazing it is! Thank you! I have 3 more weeks left of this insane microbiology class and after that is over let‘s schedule to get together! ❤️ 6y
MicrobeMom @BookaholicNatty I am so happy you love the bottle. I student gave me a cup like it and they are amazing. Also I am a Microbiology prof if you have any questions!!! I now micro can be hard and if you are doing it accelerated, it is just crazy!! 6y
BookaholicNatty @MicrobeMom oh my goodness you are kidding!!That explains your Litsy name!!! So wait do you teach at Bucks? I am doing pretty well so far but it is taking literally every single minute of my time and energy to get everything done. Three quizzes and one exam per week.Covering about 4 chapters each week. I start nursing clinicals in fall so have to get a b.I haven‘t been able to get much reading done.That‘s so awesome your a micro teacher!!!! 6y
