October 7,2026,Wednesday night, 8:48pm, pacific standard time,apartment in Dana Point, California, USA. I woke up at two this morning then drifted back to sleep for an hour. I did the Santa Clara walk and some pushups. Afterwards I took a little snooze but overslept my second sleep as well. I didn’t get up until after six but I didn’t mind. I was feeling at peace after the census milestone and putting staff meeting behind me. It felt good to get extra rest and have pleasant dreams.

This morning I walked the pacific island walk followed by lifting at planet fitness in Laguna Niguel. After that I went home to do laundry and clean. I reached out to a handyman to fix the lock on the sliding glass door. That should be repaired tomorrow. I had to run to Home Depot to get the handle so I came to the planet fitness off el toro right next store. When I am done I will grab my daughter and we will all go to target. On the walk this morning I saw a a couple deer. I snapped a pic of the buck but the exposure washed out in the lighting.
