With such a big week, it's difficult to narrow it down to three, as blessings flowed--and keep flowing--abundantly. However, keeping consistent with my Friday posts, my top three for the week: 3.) The amazing freedoms in our country, none that have come without a steep price by dedicated and loyal military men and women, that give… Continue reading T.G.I.F. – Gratitude Friday

A Glorious Sunday Drive
On my bike. As strange as this may sound, there's nothing more relaxing to me than a long bike ride on a beautiful Sunday morning. Of course by the time the 30-mile ride is done, there's nothing more relaxing than being back home, showered, with a bowl of popcorn and an A&W 10. 🙂 The… Continue reading A Glorious Sunday Drive

A Walk in the Park
Yesterday morning after I finished my run, I walked out on the pier that graces the park, as I usually do, to enjoy the view while I cooled down, stretched, and practiced some end-of-workout meditation. Usually, I'm alone on that pier because it's typically early in the morning. Yesterday morning was one of the rare occasions I wasn't alone out… Continue reading A Walk in the Park
