Well, here we are at the end of 2023…I can’t let the year end without a few end of the year Runfessions and Confessions. Let’s jump right in shall we? Thanks to Marcia for hosting.
End of the year Runfessions and Confessions
I Runfess and Confess…
After much resistance, I finally switched over to reading on a Kindle. Often, I would be stuffing 3-4 books into my travel bag and then donating them to the places we stayed. It was so much easier to just download book to the kindle before leaving. I also confess I was kicking myself for not doing it sooner, Sometimes, I just like the feel of a book in my hands.
So what did I read this last trip? I managed to get through 3 great books all of which I highly recommend if you like mystery thrillers:
I confess and Runfess…
You all know how obsessed I am with all things Peloton. I admit, I bought a jacket because I thought it looked so cute on one of the instructors. Yup, I am that girl. I’m waiting for it to be cold enough to wear it myself. Peloton instructors: they are just like us. LOL.
I confess and Runfess…
Speaking of workouts, I for some reason, wear perfume even when I workout at home alone. Why? I really have no idea. It’s part of my daily routine and I like the way it smells. Anyone else wear perfume while working out at home?
I confess and Runfess…
I am not the biggest New Year’s Eve person and would not really be disappointed if I stayed home in my pj’s. Don’t tell my friends because we are meeting a few for dinner. I am sure it will be fun once we get there. Maybe, I can wear that new jacket-ha!
That’s all I’ve got for these end of the year runfessions and confessions. What do you have to tell me?
Wendy says
I’m not much of a NYE person either! In fact, we have dinner plans the night before and then we’re going to my parents to see my youngest sister and her family. They live out of town and weren’t here for Christmas.
Happy New Year Deborah! I hope 2024 is a much better year for you!!! <3
Deborah Brooks says
thanks Wendy I hope so too! Happy new year to you
Marcia says
I kind of love that you wear perfume when you workout! Whatever brings you joy, right? We’re going to dinner and a play with friends on NYE but will likely be home by the time the ball drops. I’m not a huge NYE party fan. Happy New Year Deborah!
Deborah Brooks says
I always struggle to stay up until midnight too 🙂 Happy new year!
Chocolaterunsjudy says
LOL about wearing the new jacket to your NYE dinner! I am the girl still asleep by 9 pm (hopefully!) on NYE.
I’ve been a Kindle reader . . . forever. Sure, a book is nice — but for travel, it’s just a no brainer (at least to me). I actually like reading Kindle books on my ipad, too (so bright and colorful, unlike my old paperwhite Kindle (which is great at night, so the blue light doesn’t keep me from falling asleep).
Deborah Brooks says
I do like the Kindle but there is something about holding an actual book in my hands that I miss.
Jenny says
Ha ha- I WILL be spending New Year’s Eve at home in my pjs. I”ll tell you all about it.
I’ve also been resisting a kindle, although everyone is trying to convince me to get one. I like holding a book! I’m sure at some point I’ll cave, and then like you I”ll wonder what took me so long.
Deborah Brooks says
Yes, I do like holding a book in my hands too. I like the Kindle and it is easier when traveling and downloading new books in seconds. I am sure I will get used to it! Have an exciting NYE 🙂
Kimberly Hatting says
Love the perfume habit, but I’m an eyeliner & lipstick junkie, LOL. The lipstick is more of a lip balm stand-in. The eyeliner? Well, I simply just look better with it 🙂
Deborah Brooks says
I also do wear eyeliner and lipgloss because selfies happen 🙂
Coco says
I’m lucky if I remember to brush my hair before I workout, but I do always brush my teeth! 😉
I use the Kindle app on my phone or iPad for reading — it’s so convenient to have my book wherever I am — like waiting at the DR’s office ….. It’s also easier to read in bed without having a light on.
I bet you will look great in that jacket!
Deborah Brooks says
Ha I definitely need makeup for the photos lol. I am liking the Kindle so far especially for traveling
