Take a new route

Have you ever walked down the block past where you normally stop, or took a different street to get you to the same place? Lately, I have been taking a different route home from the day care, each time. I am not expecting to stumble upon anything incredible, but I feel like we get into routines and changing them just a bit might be a good thing.

Even though I have been walking from my apartment to the day care since September, there are probably 50 streets that I could and have not ventured down to get me from A to B. I am not planning to go out of my way, just trying something different each time for a literal change in scenery.

Today I stumbled upon a pretty cool looking mattress out in the garbage, a much larger community garden area than the one next to my building, and a little fruit stand where I was able to buy 5 apples and 4 oranges for 3 dollars. Not bad, I'd say.
