    Thank you for the birthday wishes! Had a quiet day since the siblings returned to their homes. I raked a bit in the yard, finished my cake and ice cream. Up 10 lbs from last week, missing my long runs, but rested well last night.
    Back to portion control. Temperatures going down after tomorrow, really not a fan of cold weather.

    WOW! so much going on. Glad you had a great bday party @AlphaHowls and hope those toes unjam. That is awfully painful. 😖😥

    @tarun_yadavA think of the long trip as "sightseeing" altho probably not the prettiest. And just WOW on all that food. I am feeling bloated just looking at the pictures.

    @WarmJellyfish when it's cold here I use those handwarmer things on my runs. lightwicking gloves under waterproof mittens with the handwarmer stuck between or whereever I want it during the run. Winterwonderland I think I might run ONCE in it and then would give up. Sliding on ice is only a recipe for disaster for me. 😳

    @quilteryoyo you really have upped your running this year. And I had the strugglebus myself yesterday but managed a 5K to be at 96.7 out of 100 goal. I think I demotivated myself by looking at how many miles per day I needed to run to match last year's #. 🙃🤷‍♀️😖

    @daria0919 I meant to comment on your race. I have done that before with events. Mostly dressage tests on my horse. Glad you are checking in and hope you get some better news soon.

    @martaindale the kid is DRIVING!!!!! And you are doing the teaching? hope that went well. Glad Garmin is happy with your workouts - that is the most important thing of course. LOL.


    @Teresa502 I love that bright turkey trot Tshirt bling!!! Rain and drizzle sound nasty to me tho. Congrats on the race.

    @Scott6255 hope you can find time to get out for a run today. My neighbor often cancels our tennis because of workers at his house also. But best to keep an eye on things.

    I had to unfollow one of my friends on Strava because they signed up for a political support group and it kept showing up in all my feeds asking me to join. 🧐😏 I am already sick of politics and don't need it on my strava feed!

    @kgirlhart looks like your recovery from the race is complete!

    I can't believe Nov is almost gone. Work decided after a month and everyone being gone to EXTEND the requirement to get below 40 hrs of PTO until the end of Mar. It has been a month of hell trying to manage my employees and my own time off. With Dec almost here and pretty much everyone out for thanksgiving next week I guess they think everyone is going to change all their plans now to support our qtr end in Dec... 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃 I really need a sarcasm icon.

    @daria0919 I forgot you lived up that way too!

    Driving lessons are going ok. They were ROUGH in the beginning but now I'm pretty comfortable with them most of the time. We still need some practice on parking and city driving before they are ready for the driving test but they are getting close to having a driver's license!

    And, yes, having Garmin be happy with me is very important!

    I'm glad to hear your work extended the requirement for using up your PTO. This sounds like a case of someone not doing the math. I've definitely run into that at my job as well. Seems pretty basic, but it's amazing how often the powers that be don't think the entire way through a process they're putting it into place.
