Week 2: Peloton
I GOT AN APPLAUSE FROM BEN ALLDIS FOR MY INSTAGRAM STORY!!! I’m not gonna say that I fan girled, but I totally sent pics of this to my kids because hellllooooo! My Workouts I’ve had my bike for two weeks now and, for the most part, I’ve been sticking to 20 to 30 minute rides with a few arm workouts thrown in here and there. The arm workouts are about 10 minutes long, but they’re continuous, so you really feel the burn. Especially a couple of days after. I’m also using 3 lb weights, which may not sound like a lot buuuut when you start with both weights in one…

I’ve never been a big Halloween fan. My parents didn’t let us celebrate for religious reasons, but I did let my kids celebrate. And since I was usually the one who took them out, I’d sometimes dress up or put on some sort of holiday appropriate tee. This year, our campus decided not to do Halloween costumes but…

Coffee and Cars: 23 October 2021
The Hubs is a total car guy. Whenever he talks to me about them, I get the same glazed over look in my eyes that he gets when I talk to him about photography. Truth be told, I like looking at old cars, I even like riding in the car when he races, but I do not like discussing them. Fortunately for him, he has a bunch of friends who totally enjoy those conversations and they leave me to take pictures. I follow one of our local coffee shops, Tamp and Grind, on Instagram and saw that they were hosting Coffee and Cars this weekend, so I sent The Hubs…

Week 1: Peloton
I’ve had my Peloton Bike+ for a week now and I honestly believe I’ve found something I can stick with. In fact, I look forward to the end of the work day, so I can come home, feed and walk the dogs, then get on my bike. It’s intense. It’s therapeutic. It’s relaxing. All the things that I enjoyed about running without worrying about varying temperatures or inclement weather. I wasn’t home when the Peloton arrived, but The Hubs said that everything went smoothly. The delivery team put the bike together outside and then moved it upstairs, exactly where I told The Hubs I wanted it placed. I ended…

Mine was nice. Peaceful. The Hubs and I went downtown to the Cars and Coffee get together. It’s basically a chance for the community to get together and talk cars. Vendors and musicians also attend. I used it as a chance to step out of my comfort zone and take pictures of cars —…
