1/ Yesterday I tried on some clothes at Winners. The lighting in the fitting rooms was wonderfully unflattering. I looked old and fat.
It's a bit like a funhouse mirror, but more frightening.
I've shrunk an inch or so from my 30s. Now at 6'2"+ and 173 lbs, I'm not

2/ in the overweight ranges of the charts. I feel great.
So I did a quick set of measurements.
Chest is 40", waist 33", hips 39.5".
The clothing was my size and seemed to fit nicely. But there's no denying the light made my body look bulgy and saggy and grey.

3/ I don't usually look at mirrors at home - get out of the shower, which is in a room that has no mirror, run a comb through my hair, use the electric shaver on my face, and throw some clothes on.
But lately I have been going to the gym, so I see myself in mirrors more often.

1/ Yesterday I went shopping in #yeg for a modest set of adjustable dumbbells. I was checking second hand stores, pawn shops.
No luck - but then I spotted a liquidation store that advertised itself as having sporting goods.
They had what I was looking for at a reasonable price.

2/ There was another customer looking for the same thing. The sales clerk came over, chatted us up, offered a further discount if we both bought.
It wasn't the perfect model, but fine for home exercise during COVID-19 restrictions.
While the other customer and I were talking

3/ it over, a woman came in to the shop. She was a senior, struggling a bit with a walker in the rain. She was there to pawn something.
Our clerk explained to her that this was no longer a pawn shop. Then he asked if he could do anything else for her.
She hardly looked at him.
