Finding Radiance

Thanks for all the comments on the photo shoot yesterday! It’s funny how everyone has a different opinion on which outfit looks the best. I will think about getting the pants, but also, I have to think about how often I will really wear them.  Since I work at home, I have no dress code [...]

it’s Friday! This week went by so fast, didn’t it? Yesterday was pretty dreary round here, although it was quite warm so John and I decided to walk up the street for ice cream. I ended up eating caramel apple sundae and I was way too full last night. Oops. That meant a lighter breakfast [...]

Busy!  I was thinking it wouldn’t be so bad today, but you just never know.  I was up for an early ride and of course, being Wednesday and all, I had to stop for breakfast! This was a banana nut bagel.  Num!  Had a nice chat with the cafe owner this morning.  I don’t mind [...]

Finally, the humidity and heat is gone.  It was in the upper 50s when I got up and I was actually looking forward to going out for a run!  Snacked on a couple dates with PB. Trundled on outside and started jogging.  The plan was to go 4 miles, but that didn’t happen.  My thighs [...]

Today was the start of my work week!  Had good productivity, so I actually finished up early.  Yay! The day started with our Sunday bagel and paper reading: No exercise today since it is a complete rest day for me.  Still hard for me to do these days. Here is the granola recipe that I [...]
