Progress
I’ve been thinking forward to June. On June 4, we’ll start rolling around the Gaspé peninsula in Canada. On this two week trip, we’ll ride about 560 miles.

Bumbling Along
Been awhile since I’ve posted about dating. Because, well, I haven’t dated in awhile. Last summer, around the time of my yoga teacher training, I shut down all of my online dating profiles.

One of my co-riders for the Canada Bike Ride 2018 trip and I went for a ride in the Florida hills.
I didn’t think they existed either. Not really.
Oh, they do. Trust me. They do.Read More »The Hills Are Alive
Take Care of Yourself
The tree and mistletoe are up. I’ve bought gifts for work-related holiday festivities. But I didn’t send out holiday cards this year. I haven’t bought or made gifts for my nearest and dearest.
This year it’s felt like too much…Read More »Take Care of Yourself
