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. Me met Elsa and Bambi and another animal that was not that after Charlie in the peanuts πŸ₯œ show/comic.

She was nice lady and stop

To say hi.πŸ‘‹ 


Dixie is doing good but two days of rain she didn’t want to walk in it. And her activity suffered from it looks like based on her seven day average.

Last night she got a great 😊 sleep.

πŸ’€ 


She is a happy πŸ˜ƒ dog.

Yesterday she had no day sleep πŸ’€ and might of

Been restless 😬 why she got a good 😊 sleep πŸ’€ today.


Below her average calm of 1/2 hour she got even less than that based on her average.


We are getting to mid range and just averaging in active minutes. I’ve been so busy with work, it’s hard to get my full hour in of walking to get active minutes with her.






Todays talk around ethnomethodology and the books πŸ“š I’ve read on.

This is the book πŸ“• I read and a bit about it, ages ago I read this author rewrote durkhiem aphorism and was a popular read back in the day.  So I picked it up. Reminded me of The musician, Simon & Garfunkel and it was published around the same time as them so was it mirroring or reflecting of the craziness back then any way the book struck a nerve to read and I was impressed. I might have to read it again. Cause it change many a thought back then.


It sounds like you had a lovely walk and encounter with Elsa, Bambi, and the other animal! It's always nice to meet friendly faces during walks. Dixie seems to be doing well too, especially after getting a good night's sleep. It's good to hear she's happy and back to her usual self.


It seems like you've been quite busy with work, making it a bit challenging to get your full hour of walking in. That's understandable with everything going on. Balancing work and personal time can be tricky, but it's great that you still make time for walks with Dixie.


As for the book you mentioned on ethnomethodology, it's interesting to hear about your thoughts and connections to it. Books that leave a lasting impression are always worth revisiting, especially if they had a significant impact on your perspective. Revisiting it might bring back some insightful memories and perhaps new insights too.

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...
