Sorry all our smoke is bothering you! Contrary to what someone said, we can't stop it. Nova Scotia is under a burn ban until the middle of October unless things drastically change. It's bone dry here and a severe fire hazard. There is at least 1 or 2 counties that have put out water restrictions. (ie: no washing cars, no…

I have been busy in all my free time getting ready for Vacation Bible School at my church for next week. I am doing the decorations. I also fully relaxed Saturday and Sunday and embraced the first long weekend here since May. I am determined to get out on my lunch break today.

@CMorning99 You had to get permission to wear a ring to work? What do you do that you to get approval? My goal for August is 75km.

I taught 1st grade for 3 years. I don't have the patience needed for it. I love what I do now. (I am a paralegal.) It's summer so I am constantly craving ice cream. I need to crave something better for you!

Total for July - 47km July goal - 93km I didn't meet my goal, but it was my highest month so far for this year

July 1 - 4km July 5 - 6km July 7 - 4km July 8 - 4km July 12 - 6km July 23 - 4km July 24 - 4km July 26 - 7km July 28 - 4km July 30 - 4km Total for July - 47km July goal - 93km Today felt so much better the Monday! (and it was hotter today). It never fails when it's windy that I run into the wind on my way back. Today on a…

I was listening to a podcast on running and motivation called "Rediscovering the joy of running" I was raising my hand, nodding my head and going Yes Yes Yes! That person being interviewed could have easily been me!!!! Did I ever need to hear that! I am so glad I opened my podcasts, looked for one on running and that was…

The joke is that when the fair is in town it rains. Only thing is the fair is here and it's not raining! Maybe it will when they are done setting it and it opens. (today or tomorrow) I was listening to a podcast on running and motivation. I was raising my hand, pointing to myself and nodding. She nailed so many things…

My perimenopause symptoms are raring their ugly head again. I haven't head a good night's sleep in over 2 weeks and am waking up to night sweats on a near daily basis. The lack of sleep is catching up with me as I constantly feel tired and today my body is one giant ache. All of this is making my crave chocolate which…

My body is screaming at me today. It's in all over ache. I know it's from lack of sleep, which is from perimenopause. My body just is rebelling at me. I will have to see how I feel at lunch if I try to out or not.

July 1 - 4km July 5 - 6km July 7 - 4km July 8 - 4km July 12 - 6km July 23 - 4km July 24 - 4km July 26 - 7km July 28 - 4km Total for July - 43km July goal - 93km I wasn't feeling today's run at all. I was tired and my legs felt heavy and stiff. I am glad I got out there and got it done though.

Temperatures in the summer are usually mid to upper 20s, which for you would be upper 70s to mid 80s. Right now it's very dry here. We desperately need rain. Most of the province (including my area) is red for the fire ban, which means no burning of any type any time of day. I love the sun, but we need rain!

July 1 - 4km July 5 - 6km July 7 - 4km July 8 - 4km July 12 - 6km July 23 - 4km July 24 - 4km July 26 - 7km Total for July - 39km July goal - 93km I almost didn't go. I almost shorted my plan run as it wasn't starting well. Glad I didn't!

When I moved back to Nova Scotia I tried to find a teaching job in a Christian school but couldn't find one I liked. In the years since, I understand now that I lack the patience needed for teaching. I love what I do now and feel like it suits me (most days) I have been having night sweets and insomnia for the last few…

July 1 - 4km July 5 - 6km July 7 - 4km July 8 - 4km July 12 - 6km July 23 - 4km July 24 - 4km Total for July - 31km July goal - 93km Today was better then yesterday. There was a little less walking. It was windy today. The wind tunnel that I go through blew my hat right of my head as I was crossing the street!

@CMorning99 Trust me there are days I want to keep going and not come back in! 😂😂

Florida - 4 years in Pensacola going to college (1997-2001) and 3 years in Miami teaching 1st grade (2001-2004)

July 1 - 4km July 5 - 6km July 7 - 4km July 8 - 4km July 12 - 6km July 23 - 4km Total for July - 27km July goal - 93km I got out the door! I went on my lunch break for a runch. I could tell it's been 1 1/2 weeks since I last went for a run. First the things felt tight, then the ankles then the shins. I do have some great…

I have been wanting to come back to States to visit friends. I don't want to right now. I'm afraid what they might do since I lived down there for 7 years, even though I have been back home for over 20 years!

I can tell I have been eating to much junk food. The scales are going back up and the dress I tried to wear yesterday was to tight again. I left my debit and credit cards at home. (I have cash in my wallet.) Most of the junk I buy is on my lunch break or on the way home from work. If I don't have my debit card with me, I…

I have a friend who posted close up pictures of an item and you had to guess what it was. She had one friend who always got it before me. One day I commented "One day I am going to beat her!" My post was removed by Facebook and I had my account flagged for "inciting violence" 🤦‍♀️ I argued them on what they said and had…

July 1 - 4km July 5 - 6km July 7 - 4km July 8 - 4km July 12 - 6km Total for July - 23km July goal - 93km I did something to my back and couldn't run. When it was feeling fine, I should have run, and didn't. I have my bag with me to run at lunch time - provided it's not raining (I like a hot shower after a rain run,…

Wesley is my cuddle bug. He's hiding it here, but his black nose is nose is one of his cutest features. The scales have gone back up again. Sigh It's my own fault. I'm hoping to run today at lunch, but it's beautifully raining right now. Rain we desperately need.

I stepped on the scales this morning. The number went up again. It's my fault for all the junk food I've been eating. Your President scares me as well. What did we as a country do to him that makes him see to hate us so much and doing what's he's doing? I don't care for our Prime Minister much better. (I didn't vote for…

I'm not answering questions that can be security questions on passwords. Though my profile picture answers one question.

I hear you on that to much sugar!!! (says the person who went grocery shopping hungry last night and bought a cake and store made cookies last night) The lawyer I work for has been away this week due a death in his family. I attacked his office and cleaned it. Some files were touched in so long they were dusty. After going…

JFT, Wednesday Up at 5am ✔️ Devotions ✔️ Breakfast at home ✔️ Bus by 7:10am ❌ It's summer. I can catch the 7:20 one and still make the 8:00 ferry to work Hydrate ❌ I need to be drinking more water Log all food and stay within 50 calories of goal ❌ (I realllly need to work on this) Stay stress free at work ✔️ Supper at home…

It's been so dry here this summer that I wonder how the farmers are doing with the crops around here. I keep saying we need a good rain Yesterday I think I slept wrong, or sneezed wrong, as my lower back was in pain all day. It's better today, it mostly feels stiff. I guess that is all part of getting older. 🤪 After a…
