We actually did have to run the AC one afternoon this week (or maybe it was the end of last week). Then I was pulling out the transition jackets and tights for my runs. Although who am I kidding -- the transition jackets never get put away, LOL! I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah … Continue reading Critters are busy!: 10/30 – 11/5 WRD

No more rose colored glasses: Tea/coffee Date February 2023
I'm joining Coco and Deborah and definitely enjoying a hot beverage on this very cold morning. As the subject alludes to, I sad on my rose colored sunglasses -- they've appeared in many photos -- and I'm so sad. I think I've had them for over a decade. Good thing it was cloudy most of the time … Continue reading No more rose colored glasses: Tea/coffee Date February 2023

All About Letting Go: 10/3 – 9 WRD
This week Yom Kippur fell mid week. Yom Kippur is about atoning for your sins, and asking forgiveness for the same. You are supposed to fast for 24 hours -- including no drinking. At all.
