Somewhere along the road of busyness and being sick far more times than I’m used to- the 5k training took a back seat to everything else. I will be the first to admit that I’m not overly thrilled about this, but the great thing is that I can always start again and pick up where I left off (or close to it).
I’m still not at 100% but thankfully I’m headed there. I’ve found that I’m very tired and on most mornings I’m sleeping far later than I’ve slept in a very long time. Obviously my body needs it, so I’m not complaining. I just hope it doesn’t need it for too much longer because I’m missing out on some precious daylight hours.
I’ve noticed over the past couple of days that the scent of fall is in the air. Some of you may not recognize it because it isn’t a particular scent, but a feel. The air has been cool for a while, but there is a sudden crispness that wasn’t there before. I find myself smiling and wanting to spend time outside of the house. I think I’m going to spend more time in the evenings sitting outside drinking coffee and watching the sun go down. It’s something small, but one of those things that brings a smile to my face and joy to my heart.
What brings a smile to your face?
I do love the feeling of fall in the air. It’s happening here too, absolutely beautiful.

I love summer ( anywhere!) but I also Love Fall ! It’s that way here, too. Even the breezes are cooler 🙂
Glad you are feeling better…and yes, the extra sleep is good for your bodie’s defenses.
