Second Year Work Anniversary Yahoo





 πŸŒŸ Celebrating two amazing years at my job, Yahoo! πŸŽ‰


Today, I treated Kim to dinner to mark this special anniversary with starting my job two years ago, and I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate than at OPA! πŸ₯³ The food was incredible, and I think we may have found our new favorite spot! 


Cheers to new beginnings, great adventures, and delicious meals! πŸ₯‚❤️ 


In Swedish they say ja, jag Γ€r arbetar

This last week I’ve started slowing my reading since I readed my goal and I want to be close to accurate on estimating my year of book πŸ“• reading and so I’m trying to learn three languages on Duolingo for 2024 or til the end of year.



Spanish, Italian, and Swedish last week I got silver this week looks like I’ll get gold. I thought learning some languages instead of reading near πŸ’― books πŸ“š in a year is a bit better since the last decade I’ve read over a thousand books πŸ“šwith including the books I don’t catalog on 😊 Goodreads.

So after cataloging it for yup ten years I’ve decided I’d try and complete with XP points on Duolingo til the end of the year.  My goal is to be at 100,000 XP by the end of 2024 in December.  So that’s about 20 weeks approx at a 5,000 XP a week.  Which I’m way over at the beginning at about 10,000 XP but am expecting it to slow down as it gets more complicated

Plus 4 Celsius 6.1 km in a hour πŸƒ‍♂️

  Dixie and I go for a run  πŸƒ‍♂️ Dixie and I go for a run, redo a hill run down and up again. Kim picks me up after I climb the hill, I called her and asked since I was over my hour mark, originally I wanted to do 9 km in an hour but I managed to do six km instead.  I think it was the hill climb that did it.  I ran fully down hill no problem 😌 We made good time.  For a hill run πŸƒ‍♂️   It looks like it will be 13 Celsius by noon but it feels warmer in the sun. ☀️  I took a picture by the usual spot that judge where the river is from other years and with that rain the last couple days it definitely looks a lot better than what it was a few weeks ago Dixie went off leash for a bit and went to the river. Must’ve been cold. I think for April water dip. I managed to bring my VO2 max up to good 😊 today, it’s the first time I’ve put it in the green since owning my second Garmin. So my goal right now is to get an endurance score over 5099 To move past ...

Walk mid October with my Mom

  Walks with my mom The water looks like glass just crystal smooth.  My mom and I are walking to the river and in life. It’s like we’re always walking away.  Getting closer to the end, my poet mind says.   I say I got to enjoy these walks and I was silent most the walk just trying to enjoy 😊 my time with her. Or walk end more so with 🐾 paw printed pants πŸ‘– from dogs jumping.  We say maybe a dozen dogs πŸ•. A wonderful time.  I often thought it was too early to spell like alcohol.  But surprised to pass another walker, but each to their own I probably smell like an ashtray. Although I never smoked or chewed tobacco on my walk.  I just want to walk with my mom.  Often times I don’t think I could spit out everything I wanted to say so much so that I just said in these moments you don’t have to chew tobacco and say anything. Dixie and both us individually by the fallen tree arch. A path going to the river, under which most the trees 🌳 there are...

Walk and a run in to the vet

 Another adventure for Dixie,  she is an expensive dog….πŸ• We enjoy 😊 our walks. Up top of the coulee you can see the university  Sonny and I go walking the south side dog park,  it tricky terrain for sure.  It’s nice 😊 for the scenery I think, yet a bit treacherous at times.  A person has to be careful let alone a dog πŸ• being careful. Here is Sonny and I smiling giving a thumbs up to the camera πŸ“Έ  The walk was decent though some difficult 😞 parts for today, Dixie is on a 14 day hiatus from walking.  She’ll probably want to go sooner rather than later. I think we’re stuck to just five minute poop πŸ’© walks than the hour or two hour walks we usually do. I’m unsure when it happen but my guess is near the end of the walk when I noticed it. Dixie gets to close to the bushes today, I kept looking her over but noticed a different spot on her at the end of our walk.   Dixie goes through some bushes and gouged a piece out of her. Now Dixie has th...
