Thanks for dropping in for the July 2023 Ultimate Coffee Date today with me and Coco. It’s always fun to hear about what you all are up to off the road and out of the gym. Grab your mugs and let’s get to it!
July 2023 Ultimate Coffee Date
If we were having coffee, I would tell you…
It has been a rough few weeks for me emotionally with all the health stuff. I feel like I am in a much better place this week, I’ve gotten some answers and I am on a new medication that is agreeing with me so far. And, best of all, I am easing my way back into running.
I now feel like I can relax and have an amazing time on our trip next week. Tune in next week to see where we end up. I can tell you that I will be enjoying lots of pizza 🍕and wine. 🍷
If we were having coffee, I would tell you…
We have had a battle with the deer in our backyard for years. They eat all of our plants and flowers. My husband has been threatening all kinds of sinister ideas to get rid of them. I always defend them saying they don’t harm anyone and they are so cute.
Well. I was very proud of the beautiful sunflowers 🌻 I planted a few days ago. Not a few hours later, the deer had eaten most of them and left me with just stalks. I feel very betrayed!
If we were having coffee, I would tell you…
I caught this little snafu on. Good Morning America the other day and had to share! OOPS! Wondering if it was intentional? Ha ha somebody is getting fired!
Finally, I would ask you-Are you threading yet?
That’s about all I have for today! If we were having coffee, what would you tell me?
I’m sorry that it’s been rough but glad to hear you’re in a better place this week! <3
I just saw a mention of Threads but don't feel I have the bandwith to learn what that is too, haha. I miss the old IG days when it was just photo highlights!
I miss that too! I am over the videos
Glad you are feeling better and ready to enjoy your next trip. I understand what it feels like to be bogged down mentally!
Hmm, I am.curiois about that Thread but am sure I won’t be downloading another app! Thanks for the link up!! -M
I said I would not join and that lasted about 4 hours lol
I’m glad you’re feeling so much better! Hoping the meds will work their magic and you’ll continue to have some peace of mind. I have not had time to check out Threads…not really interested in one more social media to distract me, LOL
thanks I am doing much better this week! I swore I would not join another one but that lasted about 4 hours lol
Happy to hear that you are feeling better. I see on Strava that you’re running again.
Our deer have been relentless. I surrender.
I’m threading. Not sure why yet.
I am back to run walking it is super slow and the heat is not helping. Looking forward to cooler temps
I’m so glad to hear you’re in a better headspace. Medical issues are no fun at all. Oh I feel you on the sunflowers. Deer damage is so frustrating. I planted some new Asiatic lillies and the entire plant was uprooted and the bulb eaten. Ugh, Have so much fun on your trip!
the deer are out of control! I give up
I’m so glad you got good health news this week and that your new meds are helping you feel better!
Ugh on the deer. It’s the squirrels that dig up the flowers out of my flower pots. Grr.
I am having a much better week thanks!
This is good news!!! i’m glad things are feeling better and I can’t wait to hear about the next adventure.
Oh that GMA snafu is so funny! How did they not notice??? I’ll bet it gave a lot of people a nice morning chuckle. And I wonder how many people didn’t even see it- because when I first looked at it I totally read it as “shifts.” i only looked closer because I knew there must be something off.
Don’t those deer know you’re their ally? Hrumph!
I’ve had it w the deer! Thanks yes, I am having a much better week all around
I’m so glad you are feeling better and back in your running shoes. You know I would never hurt the deer, even if they ate all my plants. We had sunflowers a few years ago and yes, someone bit them off at the stalk…
Have so much fun on your trip! Ciao!
I would never hurt them either but they are sure annoying! Thanks I am really happy to be back in my running shoes. It is going to take a long time to get back
I’m glad your health issues are improving. It’s so hard when your body is not cooperating. I’ve been struggling for the last year to get back where I was. Have a great trip!
It sure is hard and I think it will take a long tine to get back. We still need that coffee date in person when I get back!
I’m really glad to hear that you’re feeling better! And it’s great that you’re able to run again.
The deer and bunnies are treating my shade garden like a salad bar lol So far they have left my flower beds alone.
Happy travels!
I am happy to. E back in my running shoes it’s going to be a long build back
That’s too funny about GMA! I’m surprised my husband didn’t catch that. Too bad about the deer. Luckily deer are a rare sighting in my neighborhood.
I’m glad that you’re back to running and on meds that are being kinder to you!
Yes, I am feeling a lot better and less stressed! Thanks
I’m glad you’re getting answers and finding helpful meds! I’m excited to follow along on your adventures (did you book run tours?? And is your husband going to join you?)
LOL on that headline! My feelings exactly.
I have the run tour in Florence booked-I hope my husband comes along. It is very hot over there right now so not sure how much running I will do
So glad you are feeling a bit better now! Hopefully this trend continues!! So are you going to ITALY??? Exciting!
Hilarious about the GMA weather report!!
Thanks I am so glad to be in a better place this week. Yes, Italy 🙂
LOL! I am totally threading! It’s awesome.
I’m glad you’re in a better place health wise. I am sure it’s been frustrating.
That GMA error! Yikes! But also, they’re not wrong…
Thanks and yes it has been frustrating. GMA too funny and no not wrong at all
Glad to hear you are feeling better. I can imagine how frustrating it is to not know what is going on but what a relief to get some answers. Italy! Have a great time!
A definite relief!
