Happy #thankfulThursday πŸŽ‰ Whew! The excitement of Christmas is finally over. Glad I survived the preparations. πŸ˜… I'm truly thankful that I felt the blessings of the universe when I got a really quiet and cool Christmas day. πŸ™β€οΈπŸ’‘

It's the day after and I got up more than an hour later than usual. I could get used to this. πŸ˜† Mini was the one who woke me up. She must be saying I should vacate the bed so she and her kittens could sleep there. πŸ˜‚ some cats... I truly learn so much from them including being patient and adaptable. 😝 Thankfully, I didn't need to clean the litter boxes as the cleaner resumes today. Plus, I skipped watering the plants as it rained practically the whole day yesterday.

I scheduled a run to the bank -- a task I've put off for a while now. I decided to go early so there would be less folks. First, I made a stop at the neighborhood 7-11 store where I bought a loaf of bread, some peanuts, my favorite M&M's peanut, Toblerone (gift for the teller at the bank), and a drink called Popple (apple soda). It's crazy that it cost me PHP543 (USD9.37). πŸ˜› Yep, everything's too costly these days indeed. I do need to be more mindful of my purchases. πŸ™„

Aside from the run to the bank, I made it a point to work on some organizing of stuff. I've filled in most of the airtight food containers I got. I changed the dirty placemats and washed those too. Little by little, I'll work on the tasks on my list. I will also be working on writing out some postcards for sending out after the holidays. For sure it will be a productive vacation while I also plan on balancing it with rest and extra sleep. This long vacation has not happened in a long time. I'm being given a chance to enjoy one, so I will be making the most of it. πŸ˜‰πŸ’ͺ

This is it. 5 days left in the year. 2025 is slowly creeping in now. πŸ˜… Are you ready? I can't say if I am ready for 2025 already. 😏 I'd say it will come when it comes.

I actively work on these affiliate sites daily. I'm actually 3 cents away from $4 on LL now. I will definitely cross that by tomorrow (Friday is crediting of LL coop link earnings). Will be tracking this with my ALIVE staking next time.





Time to wrap things up. The weekend is upon us again. πŸ˜† Can I have a slow mo button please? So vacation days will pass slowly. Hope you had a wonderful celebration. Nighty night from Manila. Ta-tah! πŸ‘‹

When You Walk, Walk fast!

Walking is a simple yet powerful way to boost your health, and it turns out that speed matters! While hitting that magic number of 10,000 steps a day is essential, walking faster can elevate your benefits even more.

Imagine striding confidently through your dayβ€”not only will you reach your destination quicker, but you’ll also be doing wonders for your well-being. Fast walking can significantly cut your risk of developing diabetes, high blood pressure, and cholesterol issues. A fascinating study published in the Scientific Reports highlights these perks.

Conducted in Japan with over 24,000 participants who were already facing obesity, the findings were eye-opening. It showed that those who walked briskly had a whopping 30% lower chance of developing diabetes, a 6% reduction in the likelihood of hypertension, and a noteworthy decrease in the risk of lipid disorders.

So, the next time you step out, remember: pick up the pace for a healthier you! Every step counts, but walking fast can propel you toward a happier, healthier life!
