Trailer get away

 Getting away


Dixie and I watch the sun come up 🙂

I wake up early now, after getting off a med. I did sleep for 8-9 some times ten hours on the med. But I'm back to a mostly six hour sleep, off the med.  I think if I control my environmental stress and health on proper sleep times I won't be ending up with 4-5 hours sleeps most nights.

 How it usually works is every other day and night I sleep then next night in a state staring at the ceiling wondering life. Those weeks could changings a person's look on life.

Which isn't bad getting six hours of sleep.  I'm happy to be off the other med, due to my sugars going A-wall.  I've given up really on omega oils during that time cause I couldn't regularly keep up health fats with the carbs I was eating. 

Now I'm thinking of picking up a bottle of DHA for brain health or for some cardio EPA.  To supplement not to cook with.

I've drastically changed my diet this last 40 and more days.


Kim asked to go camping 🏕️😂

Her idea of camping is sleeping the whole time, yeah.

So I'm in bed listening to her snore, while I read a book beside her.

It's cold still, and my feet are freezinng. Yet the other day it was t-shirt weather. During the day is warm when the sun comes out. I found a favorite spot where the sun shines by the table.

Sort of doing this for her, which I am having a great time.

Dixie is in hypertensive mode.  I don't think she slept well. She'll sleep tonight.

We had blankets but she never quite had anything but her coat. She's been good staying on her bed not the furniture 🙂.  Anytime we've gotten up to check her.

A storm is blowing in tomorrow 😅. I'm sort of excited for it.

So it'll be hot 🔥🙂 today.

But it doesn't feel like the weather is very accurate on it is.  

Back to reading my book.

Snows lastnight


I get out after the white out conditions subside.  Take a few photos when the sun is up  🙂

I look like Arnold Schwarzenegger in the batman movie's with my blue frames with Mr. Freeze.

Or where my mind goes this morning with photos.

Blizzard last night 🌃 was shaking our whole trailer.  Looking as we're here in it, we came into the city a few times.  

I have to Thank Vince and Diane,

For our trip out of the city in your trailer. It's been an enjoyable time out and out in the storm last night was very exciting. I think I got my best sleep last night 🌃💤.



Kim's been a pleasure to camp with, she even made me crackers, pickles, meat 🍖 and cheese.


Thanks again 😃


We might not get to talk this weekend 😜. maybe next weekend I'll send you a text of last weeks trip.  It's been a nice relaxing time out at the trailer. Where it would have been hard to leave the house 🏠🏘️. This trip I got out. Other years it's been different. Less coaxing I guess.

Better mood.

Less stress.

Getting out of debt helpful 😃.


Since out of hospital I've been trying to eat a two small containers of yogurt and have 1/3 cup of whole oats for breakfast every day. I just boil water and soak gluten-free oats from Costco for five minutes and drain water 💦 then eat. 

 Camping I'm finding I'm even doing just that also.  I had a frozen butter chicken 🐔 with rice nuked in the microwave.  No mess, no dishes besides a fork.  An easy meal. Hardly a clean up. No food left over.

I was reading an article that said probiotics helped people with autism and schizophrenia. They found probiotics to relieve anxiety, decrease stress for people with anxiety or depression. 

Doing googling seeing how many articles I could find on it.

Consumption of fermented foods that naturally contain probiotics, such as sauerkraut. Alternatively, you could reach for prebiotics, such as foods containing fiber.

Celebrating Ten Years and Living My Best Life🧘‍♂️ A Quiet Day at Home

  🎉 Celebrating 10 Years Together Last night was a beautiful celebration of a decade spent with Kim. We marked our 10-year anniversary with a cozy dinner at The Keg, where I indulged in a hearty 20 oz steak and Kim opted for a more modest 8 oz cut. It felt so good to get out together and enjoy a special evening. We kept things simple—just water to drink, with fresh bread and salad to start. The atmosphere was perfect, and I soaked in every moment of our time together. We’re incredibly grateful for our families, who made the night even more special. My parents generously gave us cash to enjoy our dinner, and Kim’s parents gifted us movie money so we could extend the celebration. Their thoughtfulness reminded us how lucky we are to be surrounded by love and support. Family and friends made it sweeter We were so blessed by our families: my parents gave us cash to enjoy the night and Kim’s parents sent money for a movie treat. Our friends even gifted us a 20% tip card for the meal...

Gratitude, Good Food, and Good Books

 A Thanksgiving weekend of family meals, long walks, and reaching 86 books this year Bryan and I headed out for a walk after he returned from his sister’s Thanksgiving gathering, settling into a steady 30‑minute pace that carried us just under 2 km. The air was crisp with a light breeze, the kind of weather that makes movement feel effortless. I’ve always loved these cooler temperatures—my body doesn’t have to work as hard, and the transition from “easy mode” into a gentle warm‑up felt natural. Carrying 30 pounds with me added that extra layer of challenge, but it blended seamlessly into the rhythm of the walk. We paused at a park bench along the way, taking a moment to sit together before snapping a photo. That small break reminded me how these walks are as much about connection as they are about distance or weight carried. The combination of fresh air, conversation, and the grounding presence of the season made the outing feel restorative. It wasn’t just a walk—it was a reminder...

Back in Stride: A Run Worth Celebrating

 After seven weeks of setbacks and recovery, I laced up with Dixie and reclaimed my rhythm—3.64 km of steady effort, heart in the aerobic zone, and a reminder that progress starts with showing up. This afternoon, Dixie and I laced up and headed out for a run while the daylight was still holding on. It felt so good to be back out there after a bit of a break, moving at our own pace and enjoying the fresh air together. There’s something about running with Dixie that makes the effort lighter—her energy and joy keep me motivated, even when I’m easing back into the rhythm. At first, I thought about pushing myself to five kilometers, but I remembered the back pain I’ve been dealing with and decided to listen to the advice of my AI fitness coach: don’t overdo it on the first run back. That reminder helped me focus on the joy of the moment instead of chasing distance. Sometimes the smartest choice is to start slow, and today proved that pacing myself was exactly what I needed. The run en...
