Today's wisdom was spot on, and exactly what I needed to hear in this moment.

Message received, with gratitude.

I read this on my kindle earlier this week. Loved it. I decided I wanted a hardback copy and went to the awesome indy book store, Writer’s Block Bookstore, in Winter Garden and they had signed copies. So cool!

I am late for the mugshot request from @rockingred52 I'm sorry I just saw it. But hey, new haircut!

Saw some beautiful art at Orlando Museum of Art today. These fabrics were my favorite. Photos don't do them justice.

I was today years old when I learned this was a piece of art before it was an Enya album cover.

There were lots of decorated caps at my nephew's graduation, but this was my favorite.

Requesting Advice

For those of you with fitness experience I was hoping for advice on two things:

Best fitness tracking app: Ideally this would be something that is user friendly for noobs like me, but has enough features for customizing workouts.

Favorite protein powder: I need to supplement my protein intake with a powder/smoothy of some kind, but I'd like one that doesn't taste like dirty chalk. What are your favorites?

Thank you all for being such supportive friends with me on this journey of health and fitness. Everyone is invited to Orlando for adult beverages and sunshine! The Evermore even has a nice fake beach so we can beat the heat!

Checking In

Good morning, kittens! How is everybody doing?

Life keeps marching on here in Central Florida (it is so hard for me to not type Southwest Florida after all those years). We've been hitting the high 90s, which is almost record breaking temperatures. It's usually high 80s in May. I've been going to the gym for my cardio because of the heat, but I really prefer walking outdoors. I might have to start walking early in the morning to beat these temperatures. I am not a morning exercise person. Any tips for me on how to get my shit together for a 7AM walk?

I hope you are all doing well - as well as you can these days - and that joy and peace find you wherever you are.

Happy Saturday, my darlings!

An orchid I bought yesterday in honor of my mom.

Happy Mother's Day to all of you mamas and those who fill that role. And to those for whom today brings grief and sorrow, you have my love and a wish for you to feel peace and solace.

I was tagged by @frenchbulldogmama for the last song I listened to on Spotify. It was Dream Big by Aidan Archer. It's part of their Work Focus playlist. This whole playlist is very helpful when I'm trying to concentrate.

Thanks, Gabby!

Happy Sunday, kids!
