Excellent, sunny weather and something to read with it. The perfect combo.

Any news on a date?

Go on (but don't ruin the prospect of only starting middle aged in my mid 100s)

I'm just stunned that they're planning on delivering those other healthcare improvements that'll let me live that long!

Well, it poured and poured with rain on my run yesterday, but not today. I found that one dry hour this morning. Taking that as a win!

*joy

Now cinnamon and nutmeg are two flavours I LOVE! I didn't expect that to be the main flavour note, but it probably explains why it is so popular. Perhaps I need to break out of my strong black coffee habit and experiment with these newfangled flavours. Thanks for the nudge.

I've never had a pumpkin spice coffee before. How would you describe the flavour?

What excellent taste! 😋

I'd hoped that all my running would have been training enough. But alas no, it turns out that skating uses the muscles differently.

I was surprised at how much better I was now than I was at it back in the 80s.
Although, not skating on rough tarmac may have been the hack I was missing back then.

My legs ACHED after skating for the first time in a long time recently. Hope that you fared better.

I teared up a few times. It's powerful writing.

Okay, thanks for that update. I have a fan at home who is VERY keenly awaiting the next installment.
