I am irritable and restless when I don&#8217;t get enough exercise. And the irregularity itself is giving me a bad case of restless legs. I was tossing and turning in bed yesterday night, trying to calm down my legs so I could sleep. Today I couldn&#8217;t even sit still in the sofa without my legs twitching. At ten o&#8217;clock, when both kids were in bed, I went for long and energetic walk, and felt much, much better when I got home (and got a good night&#8217;s sleep).

But the streets and parks are relaxingly empty and quiet.<\/p>\n<p>We have N\u00e4lstaf\u00e4ltet nearby, a kind of meadow-ish area that the city mows occasionally, with a few trees, a stream and footpaths crossing it here and there. I like to walk there occasionally: it&#8217;s near enough that it&#8217;s easy to get to, but far enough and large enough that walking to its farthest end is a proper walk. And right now it&#8217;s frozen and covered with a thin layer of snow, so it&#8217;s really pleasant to walk on: firm, but softer than asphalt, and uneven enough to feel good for the feet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These past weeks I have been exercising irregularly due to clashing commitments, and I&#8217;m feeling the effects.
