It’s already October 8th… What happened to September? And August? The months are just flying by…
Tonight on the way back from the stadium where we watched the marching band perform, we took a detour to look at some of the incredible Halloween decorations. So fun! In comparison, all we have so far is a couple of small pumpkins inside… sad! 😆
My company is a sponsor of the Texas Conference for Women and I got to attend (virtually) today. I was particularly excited to hear Malala Yousafzai speak. She’s such an inspiration! The entire conference was excellent, and I enjoyed listening to all the speakers, especially the other keynote speakers, Ali Wong and Indra Nooyi. A really wonderful day.
I see Koa off to school every morning, and occasionally there are some nice clouds. I had to run back in the house to grab the camera for these. ❤☁
So happy to have fresh bread so often at our house. Unfortunately, these goodies are bound for other people’s bellies, not mine. 😥
Some days, I feel like I could just run forever and today was one of those days. Maybe it was because I decided to run on streets I haven’t run before, but I felt so good and actually ran faster than I have in a long time. I don’t know if it was the proverbial runner’s high, but it was magical!
And part of what it made it so fun was that I saw a lot of really cool Halloween decorations. There was one house that had a huge skeleton with fire in its ribcage, but I didn’t take a photo because they were still setting it up. Next time!
If you are on Strava, let’s connect so that we can cheer each other on!
