I forgot to take a photos so I’m borrowing from Google. Kim buys me breakfast 🍳 the sweet heart ♥️.

We sit down at about 11 on a Tuesday. I got home around 12 and Kim got home around 12:40. She did drive us there and we took her new vehicle 🚗. We did manage to have some time together on her time off.

And my work days off which is a nice our time finally sync’s with each other time off.

Usually our schedules never align to do stuff like this.

We had bacon 🥓 pancakes and sausage and eggs 🍳. For our meal 🥘 another photo credited to Google. I couldn’t believe I forgot to take photos as I was going there I was thinking I’ll take photo. But Kim and I got in a good conversation about the start of the week and it just passed my mind by the time we sat down to eat together.

The restaurant was great 😊 Kim got her gluten free pancakes and we enjoyed going out together this cold February.

It’s been a great 😊 time off usually I don’t get time to blog stuff especially of Kim on my days off so this is a wonderful day different than the usual winter 🥶 days.

Temperature 🤒 today are cold 🥶 not as cold as when we went out last it’s been an hour or two since I catalogue the day temperatures since we were out and me getting time to blog about it.

It sounds like you had a lovely breakfast outing with Kim! Smitty’s seems like a great spot for a cozy meal, and it’s wonderful that you finally got to spend some quality time together. Breakfast foods like bacon, pancakes, and eggs always make for a satisfying meal, and it’s nice that Kim was able to enjoy gluten-free options too.

It's great to hear that your schedules aligned for this special time together, especially since it sounds like that doesn’t happen often. Making the most of your time off, especially in the colder weather, can truly make for cherished memories.

Don’t worry too much about forgetting to take photos; sometimes enjoying the moment is more important than capturing it. If you ever get the chance to go again, you can take some pictures to remind you of your time there!

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...

Plus 12 Celsius Smoke run 🏃‍♂️

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 📞 also. Hoping to take the dog 🐕 for a run 🏃‍♂️ 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 😅 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. 🏃‍♂️ It’s been raining heavily the last...
