Veteran's Day, Remembrance Day...
On the 11th Hour of the Eleventh Month in the year of 1918 CE, the guns fell silent
The hope was that they would be silent forever, but sadly that prophecy proved false
My father, my grandfathers, and going further back still, all have served
To all of you that have put body and mind on the line so that we may enjoy our liberties, and our comforts, you have my deepest thanks.
May we end war for good. That, I feel, would be the greatest honor to those lost.
Gym Stats!
Oh man was I dragging... The last day of the week can feel like a marathon, but I knuckled down and thought of what I'm working towards, not where I was in that moment.
The time will pass, be it a struggle or a delight, and afterwards, I know that if I've made good choices, then I've sown good seeds for the future.
Tomorrow is my rest day. Praise the Gods for that! #gym #workout #motivation #fitness #neverquit #beatyesterday
Good morning groovy souls!
Day six of six at the gym is done, and I've completed the deeper house cleaning.
I am a sore and tired beast but can look back on the week with a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment.
The days work is not done just yet, but all that remains is a dump and donation run.
It is a great day, because we breathe, because we choose to be here for each other, because we are here to seek light and hold hope.
Onward, towards the dawn!

I did a light day, but it did not feel like a lighter day. The body was acting like I was dragging through a 30 mile uphill run. That said I ran a sub 10 mile to get me warmed up and I'm truly excited about that!
Tomorrow will probably be another light day, then Sunday will be the rest day
There was a moment where I was going to go home early, but I thought about it. Not about how I felt in the moment, but the goals I wanted to reach
I'm tired, not injured, so it was time to push!
Good morning all you renegade eccentrics!
A happy and joyous Friyay to all of you! As we approach the weekend, I hope it is restorative and full of every good thing for y'all.
It is a great day, because we have these moments together, moments to cherish, grow and understand. May we make the most of each of them!
Thank you all for being my friends, and my teachers!
This has been my jam on my runs lately. It's absolutely epic for pushing.

The spirit was willing, and did but the body was feeling weak especially at the end. Really pushed it to the limits tonight.
My heart kept up but the body was just exhausted at the end.
The good news? 3.20 miles in 32 minutes! Rockin it, getting my speed back!
Now it's time to eat and rest a minute though...

Good morning groovy souls!
I am back from the gym, scrubbed the floors here at the house, started husband's laundry.
Now it's time for breakfast. Sometimes it feels like a lot, but all that stuff only has moments to fill. Those moments pass, and with diligence they pass well.
Light and dark, activity and rest, all make up a life in the liminal middle. One step at a time, one breath at a time you are making amazing progress.
Onward, towards the dawn!
Good night Coso Fam!
You are good and groovy souls. I've had so much fun interacting today and talking with you wonderful folks
Thank you all for making time for me, and for seeing me. There is so much kindness and friendship in this place
Hope takes many forms. One never knows if a kind word or a smile is that proverbial beat of the butterfly's wings that will send winds of change throughout the world
I hope you each will never doubt your capacity to work miracles!
Onward towards the dawn!
So I was dragging a bit this morning. The body is reporting reluctance and soreness, but that does not keep me from getting to it.
Once I got on the bounce it went fine, and what I'm most surprised by is the sudden uptick in my cardio fitness.
My weight is down too, more than I suspected it was. I find this most encouraging.
