Good morning groovy souls!

It's going to be a busy one! I've got to take my partner down to the assistance office, hit the gym, and then I'm getting my shots at noon.

I promise not to bite the vet. ^_^

But first, I'm going to finish my coffee then sit for meditation.

I have found an old saying attributed to Ghandi to be true. "I'm to busy not to meditate."

A moment of pause and reflection can make all the difference.

Onward, toward the dawn!

This has such a great hook!

Good night groovy souls! Its time to curl up and rest a while before returning home in the morning.

Onward, toward the dawn!

I'm scheduled for my Covid booster on Monday and it always makes me nervous.

My first covid vaccine, I had a severe reaction that, mixed with my thru-hike, caused me to go into Rhabdo, and it ended my year after I tore a bunch of muscles in my legs. It took me about 2 months to be able to walk without pain.

It was a fluke series of events, and my second shot was alright outside a couple days of feeling funky.

Getting Vaxed is important. It's not about me, its about everyone else.

I worried my buddy @Vozy when I was visiting him because I was out running in a heavy rain. Normally I would, but the shoulders are not as well defined here, and there's a long stretch of freshly oiled road. As I'm basically running in a car lane out here, or hugging a slip of shoulder at times, I decided it was better to be cautious.

Good morning groovy souls!

I awoke feeling quite lethargic and sleepy. The 30 minute warmup workout right after waking was a death march, but I soldiered on, got ready to run after 3 cups of deathwish coffee, opened the door and its a soaking rain out there

It's not heavy, but running along side highways, I'm worried about losing my footing and falling in front of a car

Disappointed...

But the weather is supposed to clear and we're all talking about going out walking so that would be rad.

Good afternoon groovy souls! It's been a slow day here on Whidbey Island.

I ran 6.75 miles, at 10am instead of my normal 0600, but its been a solid day so far. Now its time for a late lunch and hopefully it will be an earlier sleep time tonight.

Onward, toward the dawn!

Is that you @cornered or @p3R1n01D ?

Good morning groovy souls!

Well, it's back to Virginia... again.

That state has all the gravity of a black hole. I'll be heading out there on the 8th to help a buddy pack up and move after some heavy life disruption hit them hard.

Good night groovy souls. I'm finally clocking out, about 5 hours later than I planned to.

Tomorrow is going to be interesting!

Onward, toward the dawn!

I should not be awake but I got caught up talking with my husband for two hours. I don't even feel that tired, though I should.

Good times. ^_^

@altucker Hi new buddy! THanks for joining me on the journey!

After 5 years of regular support my biggest patron reached out to me today to tell me they had hit hard times and can't help me out each month anymore.

I'm worried for them and have offered whatever help I can.

With their loss goes the majority of what I make in a year, which was never much, but it does take pressure off the "house finances""

I am truly not feeling up to do my run today. I've got that burned feeling that tells me pushing hard would be a mistake.

I'm going to try walking on the treadmill a while and keeping to an active recovery day instead.

Ok, no more procrastination. It's time to meditate and then head to the gym.

Onward, toward the dawn! Back in a bit!

Every now and again someone stars my post in a conversation and I suddenly remember that starring posts is a thing so I scramble and go on a Star Spree.

So if you ever see 5 or 6 rapid fire notifications in your feed from me, that's probably what's going on.

My life often consists of a strange kind of myopic hyperfocus, and then I remember something was there from before and then... "Oh, right, that's a thing!"

On this day of remembrance, may we honor our fallen ancestors by doing everything we can to come together in peace.

The senseless acts of violence that killed so many on that day were a result of weaponized hatred turned cancerous.

Onward, toward a brighter dawn.
