Popson Park with an early start

  Morning walk at 8:30 πŸ•£  I get walking with James early to start my work out πŸ‹️‍♀️. I got to lift weights today and do a full house vacuum. So getting an early start is great 😊. I start my day with my morning cigarillo and a coffee. ☕️  Get down look πŸ‘€ at the beautiful scenery. I enjoy going to the river bottom it’s just an awesome 😎 place to be. We take a hour an hour to walk 1.77 km which I’ve notice if we still sit in benches the dogs active minutes are still going cause she is playing with dogs πŸ•. Early starts are not bad cause it beats the heat and every one walking hasn’t been bombastic on there device algorithms yet. So I feel it’s okay to stop and go and let people pass to meet again on a second pass. We only did one lap. But people did two laps in our one.  Which we gave lots of space. This walk was a quiet 🀫 walk not much talking. An early start those walks are the best. To early to talk smack about life and just a great start of the day. Yesterday I was 19% above ave

On my days off near Victoria Day.

  Beautiful 😍 weather  Checking to see how high the river is in my usual spot. I like the temperature at this moment not to hot πŸ₯΅ and not to cold πŸ₯Ά. I had a great 😊 time chat with James. Walking in a storm ⛈️ well it was a mists more or less. I hit a coffee so I was chit chatty and even if my coffee was Scalding hot I had to dump scalding hot the top of it off so I could keep the lidoff without its spilling. We met many dogs and I had an awesome time down in the river. Bottom it’s like a different part of the world only sane  place to be in Lethbridge I think. πŸ’­  It’s a long weekend this weekend I got to work so holiday pay. Yahoo. I love working holidays.

Motorcycle, dinner, and cigar

  I usually don’t post my cigar smoking 🚬 in the same blog but…. I go for dinner 🍽️ with Kim riding the motorcycle all across the city πŸŒ†  A good ride I got near 90 km an hour that’s as fast as the motorcycle 🏍️ would run with my weight and size of bike 🏍️. I might be pushing it to hard also for the bike 🏍️.  About 24 km ride today, decent amount. It got so warm in the house and I refused to have the ac on do I suffered through the heat. The cigar has cedar notes also a fruit 🍎 on the pallet on the dry inhale. The cigar been aging 3 year in the humidor. One of my longest cigars I’ve had.  Mossy taste πŸ‘… to it smoking it but it stops the nicotine craving. My stats on riding with my garmin. Out for dinner at smittys and got a triple ham and cheese with onion rings.  The onion ring are incredible. I couldn’t finish them. Read the anxious 😬 generation, a good 😊 book πŸ“• one of the few I’d recommend reading. It states stranger danger ⛔️ was created so more people would stay home 🏑 o

Month of rain in two days

  Hey a walk after a month worth of rain in two days The grass trees 🌳 are popping out green foliage is everywhere that rain and humidity sure got the green house 🏑 gases warming up.  It feels great out side at the moment. River sure shot up this week with all the rain before the river was a good yard or few from river bank. After our walk we pick up a coffee I take my jacket off and we sit in the shade. It hot πŸ₯΅ outside, I got to mow my grass that takes about 1 hour and twenty minutes. We walk for almost fifty minutes and do two laps.

Out in a spring storm

  Out in a spring storm ⛈️  Made it out in good weather, finally getting some much needed moisture.  Everything looks way greener now with a good soaking.  We go this isn’t usual weather for us.  I say when we get rain it lots but when we don’t it a bit to little of rain.  So we get so get a bit of rain but usually a little to little rain most the time so I’ll take any kind of rain when we can get it. I’m ready for it, two umbrellas ☂️ in the car and a handful of work gloves 🧀  First lap James said no umbrella ☔️ and on the second lap I asked him again and he said his 🀚 hands would be cold πŸ₯Ά. I told him I had extra pair of gloves 🧀 in the car. πŸš—  James politely uses the umbrella we trade gloves 🧀 once cause his hands were cold πŸ₯Ά and mine were warm. I bought 30 gloves for $30 off Amazon for work and around the house, or yard work or car πŸš— tire work.  There even capable of still being able to activate a smart phone screen while wearing them. Dixie got completely wet head to foot

Usually don’t taking pain killers but on cold days

 Usually, I don’t take painkillers, but on a cold day after a nice day, just makes it a good night sleep that much easier. Last couple days the temperature drops ☔️ to about 0. I got a good sleep πŸ’€ last night cause of the asprine but it never started working til midnight since asprine takes longer to work for me Most of all my stress sleep πŸ’€ stopped at midnight til 8 am last two nights I’ve taken some pain relief πŸ₯² and got better sleeps πŸ›Œ than I have this month of April.  Making a note of it since I usually rarely ever take asprine or Motrin in a sleep πŸ’€ routine.  But it makes staying in bed way more likely for me. Got lots of blue last night, couple weeks have been all orange all night and all day, that leaves training readiness low and pulling something more likely not only my mental health and focus disruption with poor sleeps πŸ›Œ.   Keeping track and looking at better ways so I stay motivated cause it’s so easy to get stressed and pull something and give up for a few months.

Dixie loves raining days and getting dried off

  After a walk we dry Dixie off Taking time to dry Dixie off, it's good I spend the time to make Dixie feel some care and is important to be dried off and cared for.  She does such a good job πŸ˜€ standing still and leans into the towel also lifting her feet 🐾 staying in one position to be dried off.  She's a wonderful part of my day to take care of and keep her important after an amazing walk.   She runs up super happy to greet and just as quickly turns around and leaves after such an enthusiastic greeting she leaves and is gone walking and exploring with not so much as a worry about departing or a losing fallacy.   A happy dog, some would say we would need to bottle that energy up some way. I get doing a lap around and Bryan drives to meet me at the park.  I do two laps Bryan does one lap with me. In some countries or provinces like Alberta rain means prosperity.  Alberta gets so much sunshine ☀️ that when it rains ☔️ ones got to get out and enjoy πŸ˜‰ it. I get taking a better
