Walk in February Wind

 Bryan I get out walking


Stopping for coffee.

There was supposedly another dog πŸ• that πŸ‘€ looked like Dixie escaping it’s owner. They stopped to ask us if she was ours.

On our walk we also saw a black dog running by itself and tried to grab it but he wouldn’t have any of it. He booked it away from us.  

Another lady ran to a vehicle πŸš— on the road stopped and jumped in cause the dog scared her. Not ours, ours was on its leash.

So in doing this, went went full into the February wind and got wind blown.



Enjoying a cup of coffee ☕️ on the bench when we saw the run away dog 🐢 

And saw the fear in the other lady running away for him. We tried to call the dog to us.

By that time coming home the vehicle who pick up the scared lady drove by us and told us that the dog ran that way. We said thank you as we puzzled if it was the dog owner or the lady who got picked up.  I figured the latter since the owner wouldn’t be driving in the opposite direction.



Since I was out I got Kim a gluten free Oreo cookie πŸͺ 

She’s been having a hard go this week, and thought πŸ’­ a nice romantic πŸ’˜ thing to do is pick her up a cookie.


I originally wanted to get her a scone but they were out.

So I got her a cookie.


Bryan and I get a safe way sub.

And eat it outside to keep crumbs out of the house. By this time we’re cold. And decide to come in house 🏑.

A good start of the day before work. 

My morning was enjoyable, hope your all taking a break to get steps out side, raise those endorphins and get some blood 🩸 pulsing.


Our on trails trying to follow this dog and just driving down the street to get a sub for lunch πŸ₯ͺ.

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

  πŸŽ‰ 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...

Plus 12 Celsius Smoke run πŸƒ‍♂️

  The dog and I decided to do either a 3 km run or a 6 km run or 9 km run hoping for 10 km but I couldn’t find the energy to push further. It is smoky out there you could smell it and breath it in. Made me in my threshold if I keep a higher pace than 9 minutes km Cooler morning,  I went and got a sausage homestyle biscuit from Tim’s and an ice coffee ☕️  Just getting my day started. I got a doctors appointment later today over the phone πŸ“ž also. Hoping to take the dog πŸ• for a run πŸƒ‍♂️ this morning but I’m stiff. So hopefully my coffee stop warms me up to get moving this morning. Or just caffeinates me. We managed to do 6.05 km in about 59 minutes. A high heart rate of 172 bpm and an average of 144 bpm. Plus 12 Celsius while I ran but I was in full sweating πŸ˜… by the time I got home 🏑. The last couple weeks I’ve had a low relative effort due to some family losses. But I manage to get out on a smoky day like today for a run. πŸƒ‍♂️  It’s been raining heavily the last...
