Over several days (because I am only counting intentional exercise not real-life and incidental steps) I got 6.1 miles and am now beyond Tom Bombadil's, and 11.3 miles from being captured by the Barrow Wight.

8/15 - went for a walk on break with my friend. 8/19 - let the "shoulds" go, plopped on the couch and watched a feel-happy laugh-hard movie - Redford and Nolte and Thompson in "A Walk in the Woods" 8/20 - leftovers for dinner, so walked to the gym while listening to a meditation tape; got a little run and elliptical in.…

:lol: Not sure, but if you are looking for a car I understand there's a Ford of Bruinen up by Rivendell -- that's a dealership right?

@TEQWAR have you decided what trip to take next? The trip back to the Shire from Minas Tirith and then to the Grey Havens is not documented in detail even by JRRT, although it's cheerier than the walk to Doom...

4.7 miles today, had the wrong keys in my pocket so I ran right past the truck / old man willow, and now I am only 4/10 mile from Tom Bombadil's house. Which is fun because my handle on WtM is Goldberry56...

I have stumbled on this thread before. Since it is now officially "Halfway through August" I am thinking of joining in for the second half of this month... I usually have a free-form bullet journal going where I check off a daily self care item. I fell down on this the last 3 weeks because of some unusual work hours and…

Blessings to all, and a big yay to the idea that sober / AF which I keep reading as "Sober as *kitten*", is a good place to be. Me, for many really good reasons, for 33 years this month. Sober gives me all the choices that alcohol was busy taking away. It felt like a loss or limitation at first, but believe me ... it…

Hi all, sorry I was away! Smokes and lots of extra working hours the last few weeks in northern CA. I stopped logging even, didn't have time or energy or atmospheric conditions to work out, and scared myself a little when the numbers went up, but buckling back into maintenance now. I will post my current status tomorrow,…

They got to float. You have to walk. I am not sure how that's fair :)

Aw Jaine, I certainly didn't mean my comment in any negative way :kissing_heart: I personally feel like I had a ringside seat to disaster, we are west of the zone so even have some pretty clear moments amid the smokes, depending on wind direction. A ringside seat gives you a weird survivor guilt.

3 miles today between a walk and elliptical. 2.1 to old man willow.

On behalf of the Mendocino Complex, I am sorry. We're pretty socked in with it here in Mendocino County.

SO much this! I have definitely been where you are @tangledtwine with regard to regain, and still have emotional eating as a feature of my weight-maintenance landscape. MFP has helped me realize that I don't have to be perfect, don't have to start over, don't have to quit or make it worse when I make decisions that don't…

@Faelwyn_the_Rising_Phoenix I am pretty new here but knew your name and loved your logo from the very early times on this thread ... welcome back and all the best.

What with working bazillion hours and the smokes outside looking like I actually WAS in Mordor already due to wildfires, not much walking lately. Going to the gym tonight so I will log some miles soon!

@jerier I'm in Ukiah - both fires in Mendocino Complex (now biggest in CA history) started within 10 miles of me and then raced east. My friends and coworkers from Lake County are on their 11th day of mandatory evacuation ... but so far (prayers!) no lives lost in this fire.
