I'll take a break from writing about my raw food journey for today......

This month has just flown by!! I have a much quieter week ahead of me but for today I'm excited to be celebrating our 4th wedding anniversary. We were married at about 7:45 pm AK time, on the 21st. The shortest day of the year. This marks a huge turning point for anyone living in the far north. There is such promise with the return of the light. Where many count the days to Christmas, I count the days til Spring!!

My time in Alaska was wonderful. I enjoyed the long days of summer and the beautiful sight of the Northern Lights! I miss the lights! Even if we could see them here in Ottawa they would not be the same. Gone are the nights when I would stand outside in the bitter cold starring straight up at the night sky watching the curtains of colour dance across the sky. Perhaps another trip is in my future. The Aurora Borealis calls to me.

As for today? I'm off to share a wonderful afternoon and evening with Nick. The pool and movie sounds good. A nice long soak in the hot tub perhaps!

Enjoy your celebrations as this week moves closer to Christmas! I know I will.

Someone in a live online chat tonight mentioned that it's 100 day's until December 1st! How amazing is that? We're here trying to make the very best of the waning summer sun and already starting to think about the winter time holiday. Go figure! lol

I'm always looking ahead to the Christmas concerts and services. Not really unusal for a church musician. lol

I was wondering about how I could mark the days so here's goes. One more challenge to keep me focused and on track!

100 days of exercise...at least 30 min. So, I commit to doing some sort of exercise each and every day for the next 100!!

Today is day #1! I swam and played in the pool for over half an hour. Great upper and lower body workout for me. Don't get too excited. The picture here is not of my pool. I'll post a recent one in a day or so.

Off to find my pillow and a good night's sleep. I need to be ready to get my exercise in tomorrow. Right?!
