Yowza, this week saw it all. We had beautiful summer-like conditions. There were a few pleasant seasonally-appropriate fall days. Of course, there was some rain (reminiscent of the spring season). Then things turned winter-like frigid by the weekend.
It’s a good thing I’m an #IowaTougb gal.
This week pretty much had it all. The weather felt like I’d gone back in time, and woke up in mid-June (no complaints!). The running felt incredible (and has me feeling good going into taper week). Finally, the freaky bruising has substantially faded from my unassuming eyes and face (check out last week’s WRD for more info).
Rain, rain, and still more rain! What a reality!
This week, thankfully, had some prime opportunities to dance around the rainfall. There also were a few moments of sunshine! The temps were more late-summer-like, so the weather conditions were a lot more to my liking.
Here we are, entering October.
As with each new month, I’m dumbfounded by how quickly the previous month has flown by. It seems like it was just a few days ago I was embarking on a relaxing 3-day Labor Day weekend.
Nonetheless, the new month signifies the monthly gathering around our virtual table for some virtual coffee talk. It’s always fun getting together and chatting as we sip our beverages of choice (mine is a Hazelnut Cappuccino).
Can you say, “RAIN!”
We’ve had an abundance of the wet stuff, which continued through most of the week. It was a true test of my commitment to the #OptOutside streak (which is sitting at Day-2,097 as this post goes to press).
Thankfully, I was able to dance around the intermittent rainfall, and get outside on the daily. I also utilized my indoor options, also on the daily, to keep sane.
We do what we gotta do!
Here we go!
It’s time to hit the ‘Fessional before September washes away and October makes its grand arrival. There’s been plenty happening, and there’s a good number of ‘fessions to bring forward.
Care to join me?
Rain, rain, and more rain.
Last week’s 7-day forecast looked damp, and it wasn’t too far off. Not only were we blessed with almost daily precip, we also had plenty of humidity during the “dry” periods between the rainfall. To coin what should be a patented mantra, at least it wasn't snowing.
