Last day of February walk

 Dixie and I get out this wet winter day


Dixie walking getting wet and muddy.  We walk for 20 minutes and enjoy the bit of sunshine ☀️ in our afternoon.

I helped a friend move at noon.


Earlier went for breakfast with my dad.

After I pick up treats for Dixie and getting her nails done 💅.


They wanted us to try some omega oils, I told them I give her salmon skins like once a week.

She should be good for omega oils yet we got some oils to make her food be yummy 🤤.

After our walk I got to wipe her ✅ down with a towel.



Dixie got her excitement for today, a few car rides and a walk.

I’d like to share the dog with some one. So we could have the dog one or two weeks in a month as let someone else take her for a couple weeks.

Work for her to get walked and cleaned and such is a bit much with cleaning house or maintenance on a house.

Never ending list of jobs to do with Dixie to get her good for a day.


We are below average on our walk days, and not on our walk days it affects Dixie’s sleep 💤 and how she feels during the day.


Still a bit of day left to get our active minutes. Looks like we will get it today.


Happy she’ll feel good today.


With dog stops and such to smell 👃 we did 1.36 km in 21 minutes with a quick dry off with a towel in that. I stopped it shortly afterwards.


I walked by my self. Sometimes those walks are nice 😊 usually I go further and quicker with other people.  How well, would have like to speed it up and gone longer.  I just got stuff to do at home. 🏡

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...
