well that's better

This is what I woke up to this morning:

See that? No smoke. Well only a little. I layed awake listening to the wind last night hoping that it was going to blow the smoke away. Oh how I've missed that view coming down the hill in the morning.

Ian and I celebrated with a run outside-- to the park, of course. It was nice to actually cover some ground vs jogging around the wheel on the treadmill.

Surprisingly it seems that Autumn showed up sometime over the last few weeks. The brilliant leaves have been hidden under the smoke. 

I'm feeling good. Besides getting a lovely dose of sun and fresh air, I've been doing a little cleanse. I think it's important for me to sort of reboot from time to time. My eating habits had become a little sloppy over the last month and I needed a "get-back-on-track-quick!" plan. We leave for Hawaii in a few short weeks. How's that for motivation?

Okay, I'm going back outside! Love to you all.
