I have been doing at least one yoga class a day on the Apple Fitness+ app since it came out Dec 14th 2020. I have discussed the app before and continue to be impressed with the quality and quantity of classes they keep outputting. Today I did this 45 minute class with Jessica Skye which…… Continue reading 45 min Yoga chest and hip opening

Get over yourself
Get over yourself and start living your life. Currently I have 40 posts in draft mode for this site. These are posts that I started writing and then for some reason stopped and did not post.

Giving an A
I am listening to the audiobook of The Art of Possibility and the 3rd chapter is titled ‘Giving an A’. Its based on the idea that grades are made up concepts that allow us to rate ourselves compared to everyone else. Therefore an A is something that can be given to anyone at anytime as…… Continue reading Giving an A
Fixing Safari in MacOS
A new trend in browsers is hiding the full path of the URL/domain you are visiting. For example if I goto the Kinsta Features page in Safari the default display of the URL looks like this: Notice the kinsta.com in the location bar?

For better or worse… Today we rode the same distance but visited Yorktown: the place where the…… Continue reading Cruisin on Colonial Parkway to Yorktown

Pandemic Banana Split
2020 was a wild year. New job, global pandemic, house planning, cabin finishing, and cold weather riding. To cope we have stayed on top of exercising and eating well. We have found hobbies in woodworking and sourdough bread making, respectively. Even with all of that the year got pretty intense. We needed something at the…… Continue reading Pandemic Banana Split
