Disclaimer...The distance achieved is the overall amount that's been accumulated since the beginning of September (not just from today...😉)
Went out for an after work walk (working towards the CIBC Run/Walk for the Cure) with Fayewood around my neighbourhood park and stopped off for some bbtea (minus the bubbles) along the way! |
Although caught 15 mins of Ayesha Curry's Instagram chat with Michelle Obama as I was waiting...😍 |

As Alison Holker worded so succinctly, RIP 87 year old Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg
"Rest In Peace And Power. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the demure firebrand who in her 80s became a legal, cultural, and feminist icon has died from complications from cancer. Just days before her death, as her strength waned, Ginsburg dictated this statement to her granddaughter Clara Spera: 'My most fervent wish is that i I will not be replaced until a new president is installed.' Architect of the legal fight for women's rights in the 1970s, Ginsburg subsequently served 27 years on the nation's highest court, becoming its most prominent member. Her death will inevitably set in motion what promises to be a nasty and tumultuous political battle over who will succeed her, and it thrusts the Supreme Court vacancy into the spotlight of the presidential campaign." --Zoe Saldana
"#rbg #RuthBaderGinsburg Rest with the best! But we must fight as she fought till the bitter end no matter what we cannot and must not succumb to cynicism!!!" --John Leguizamo
"We lost a hero today. We must carry her memory and purpose. Justice for all." --Bill Nye

I joined Fayewood in signing up for the CIBC Run for the Cure that taking place on Sunday October 4th. Similar to the Mon Sheong Fun Run & Walk, participants fill in their own time and fundraise on their own. I've included my fundraising information (https://support.cancer.ca/site/TR/RunfortheCure/RFTC_NW_odd_?px=13524152&pg=personal&fr_id=27307) and the extra steps I put in after meeting up with Faye for an outdoor socially distant evening walk this evening.

Afterwards in the evening, caught up with my Abbeyite girlfriend's for a zoom catch up! I love that we can all still make this work even though the group of us are split between two continents! Mind you, distance makes the heart super fond of each other. 😉

Wow, this week's gone by like a blur!!!
Last Friday, had a wonderful and much needed 2 hour WhatsApp convo with bestie, Shelley! The only downside was that the chat went by sooooooo fast....WHHHHHHHAAAT?!?!?!?!!!
The rest of the weekend was successfully occupied with television watching:
- The Nick Cordero Memorial Tribute - 'Live Your Life' - Nick Cordero by Lenii
- The Blind Side with Sandra Bullock
- The Intern with Anne Hathaway and Robert DeNiro
- Biography the 9 Lives of Ozzy Osbourne
- A&E Biography: I want my MTV - where the special documentary charted the rise of the cultural phenomenom that define's my generation. What started as playful music video lineups (that in full disclosure, I watched while running on my treadmill!), evolved to reflect the North American youth culture (pointedly the American youth culture). It's craycray how MTV pushed the boundaries of art, sex, gender and race while cementing its celebrity image and at the forefront exploring new technologies! Definitely a throwback with the revision of DJ's and MTV in general!!!

Name day drama
After having health drama arising beginning Sunday arvo that had been continuously on and off the following two days afterward, I made the executive decision to check into the emerg department to find out the cause as a present to myself...apparently I must be weary of sticky gallstones in the gallbladder...yay?
