🙌 Finally got the new computer and happy to say I somehow snagged myself a Mac! However, I only have a half day of work before heading out on vacation so only going to do bare minimum setup so I can actually get things out the door.
😵💫 I have been up for too long already today even though being work computer less I could have slept in and actually set my alarm accordingly. However, I guess with less than 24 hours till we leave on our trip, when I kind of woke up at 4 I could not turn off my mind thinking of everything that needs to get done today.
☠️ Nothing like starting this very short week out with a blue screen of death on my work computer. So have been with tech support to get this sorted. Probably not a great start for the week.
🌨️ Well I had thought about pulling in a run from next week to today but seeing how it is now snowing outside I am going to just continue to sit inside as that seems like the best option.
🧳 I am normally not a person to pack to early for trips but seeing how it is cold in MN and warm where we are going it just makes sense to get it out of the way as I still work two days next week.
🧹 Sometimes you have to spend the last couple of minutes on a Friday cleaning your office so you know Monday will start out right.
🤔 Do you ever find yourself being curious about something that you stumbled across while out in the world and then you spend too much time researching it for no mere reason than you just want to know?
Oh good… Me too! 😃
Day is starting off pretty good so far… Coffee, Running, making a delicious breakfast and now more coffee while watching some Basketball. 😄
🔗 This whole article is great and the last part is just so spot on to some of my thoughts when my kids were younger and even for today. Not that I was always perfect but I tried my best to be present.
Being here on the floor with my little guy is enough. Because what could be happening on my phone that could possibly be more important than watching this little amateur human being mispronouncing “construction” as we’re sitting on the floor for a few minutes before he heads off to day care? For now, this is enough.
📌 One of the reasons I really like the “On This Day” feature is that I run across gems like this where I classified a 3.1 Mile run in 2016 as a Long Run.
🏀 Sitting in the airport now for the next 2 hrs (3 total) due to the first leg being delayed. However, this is giving me a great time to find a place to sit and watch some March Madness and close down some work things.
🏀 Normally this time of year I spend a lot of time watching Basketball all day but my day has been so busy I am just now getting around to it and wow there is a close game going on now and that is what it is all about!
🕯️ I can tell you from experience now that carrying 5 Wicky Thing Candles in your carry on even with TSA Pre Check will still get you searched. As told by TSA, it is ok but 5 is too many. Well the team enjoyed them so all is well.

✈️ I have a bad feeling my flight travel tonight is going to get super interesting as we are really delayed and now I have a very small connection time. 😬
