#buddybreak

❤   In the rare moments I have a couple of minutes between sessions, my buddy and I grab onto them!  These are the moments I remember to breathe.

#longingformore #covermeup

It feels like so many weeks ago, rather than just over a week ago.  I miss it all.  The warmth, the sun, the beach, the lazy days in the sun, the long walks and great runs, the grass between my toes and under my back as we gazed at the clouds dancing by, the laughter, the dancing, dinner on the beach, and the long silences that held so much.

#crazydogslovethesnow

 After a run, plowing the driveway, playing with the dogs and building a snowman this morning, I have had enough snow to last the rest of the year!

3 more days #blissfuldays

Southern drawls, Spanish moss, slow living and a sporting event...along with sun and play. I cant wait to find some rest and recovery for body and soul!

2 weeks and 2 days later

The ride of my life  & the ride for my life.  A reminder of how quickly life can and does change.
A 10 minute motorcycle ride was my plan.  That was September 3rd.  September 7th I finally made it home from the hospital.  With a walker and home nursing.
I still can't find the words to describe it.

 The pictures here are the ones I can show. The other's I will spare you, they are so graphic I can barely look at them even though I lived it.

I am still struggling for it all. Not just the words.  Mobility, health, perspective.  In time I know they will come. For today I cling to what I have today.  #grateful #guardianangel

Best medicine ever
My love

#anyoldweekend #blessedlife










This morning while running I was reflecting on how different my life is these days. Its a chapter of my life that isnt filled with travel and adventure. I am home more often than anything, & have many heavy responsibilities. And yet after months of feeling drained, this weekend leaves me feeling blessed and full.
Another beautiful sunset, a trail run with a friend, an afternoon on the deck with another friend, my incredible dogs & Jeep rides, time with Mama, drinks on the deck under summer nights and lights.

#weekend fun #full life # loveandbeauty #favorite pics

The sound of the wind howling adds a melancholy feel to my dark Monday morning, making me wish I could stay curled up with my babies all day, book in hand and fireplace glowing. 

It seems impossible the weekend has passed already, I swear it lasted a blink.   

Moments of the Days

The Superhero's of my Life. 

Yes I know, a little late but I figured as long as I had their costumes out, I might as well follow through with my intention to get a great picture of them wearing their superhero capes.  One hour and one pack of hot dogs, and a lot of mud later, I didn't get the epic shot I wanted, but I did get moderately acceptable shots.  I was more than ok with the lowering of this standard by then.

Fall's fading moments








Return to the trails! 
It seems impossible that I have not been on the trails since July.  Being able to be out there with my super girl Ellie was the most amazing start to my day. The smell, the sounds, the feel beneath my (slowly moving) feet....heaven! 

Sunday Funday
And finally ending the weekend with a hot bowl of chili, football and some laughter!

#chillybliss #campingwithmyboy #soloretreat

camping... 15 feet from Lake Michigan. Isolated. Beautiful. Bliss. My boy and me. 
The chilly temps are worth it to have an entire shoreline with not another soul in sight for miles.
