Happy Anniversary to Us

27 years.  Seems like just yesterday.  Seems like an eternity.

Isn't that what everyone says?

I'd pick him every time (even when he's a pain in the bum) and I think he feels the same - hah.  It's a good life with this man.  This is what most pictures of us look like -- selfies galore, although usually, he's holding the camera.

We went on our "celebration" hike yesterday afternoon.  It's shaded and secluded -- nice to go together (too secluded to go alone).  I ended up taking a late run on the trail.  It was good to get outside. My legs are sore today -- no surprise.

I have a couple of books to share.  Active Hope was recommended by the Unity group and I'm about halfway finished.  Interesting concept on how individuals can do their part to help Earth without feeling overwhelmed -- written by a nun and doctor.  The other is fiction recommendation by Melissa Urban -- it's my next fiction read after my current book (the book was half the price of the kindle version).  Gets great reviews.  (Also, remember how I wasn't going to share book titles until after I read them?  Guess that's over LOL.)

Influencers are starting holiday recommendations.  I have a few that haven't steered me wrong.  This was recommended -- watching it for Black Friday deals to get for hubby.  She has back and neck issues and says this is the bomb.  It's $50.

Want a preview of my out-of-the-box wall decor??  Hubby can't believe I paid to have carpet framed LOL.  The sunburst next to it is 1 of 3 in different sizes and shapes with center mirrors.  There's also another picture with a similar color look, but it's a print.  This is all that's come so far.  Still crossing those fingers ...

I started Brooke Castillo's new book too.  So far, nothing great.  I might sideline it for a minute.  I have 3 other books going right now and maybe best to finish up with a couple of those first.  Feast or famine.  All of a sudden, I have a book line again (makes me happy though).

Easy arm workout today and then the power hike with my neighbor.  This is the first time she and I will be directing ourselves -- it's not a well marked hike.  Our other neighbor used to live near the lake and that was her regular running route -- she usually leads the way.  We won't get lost, but the question is, can we find the loop we want to take.  Good practice because I want to take some other friends on this hike and I need to "learn" it.

Have a great Thursday - later gators.
