it seems that fall has really truly arrived. the hill on taylor-kidd has gone orange.

i've been trying to learn to like dried apricot. it's a stupid story – not worth telling. and despite the fact that i hate their texture and taste, i snacked on one or two at various times throughout my work day. i figure that after enough time has passes i'll get used to them, then eventually like them. there's no particular reason for this, other than i want to like them.

so i've come up with a winter exercise plan to replace jogging. i'm going to do pilates at home. i've found a video online and i'll do that to work my muscles. i think that's a good substitute. i'm going to start tomorrow... after my massage! i'm going for a massage because my work benefits cover massages done by proper massage therapists. i'm pretty psyched.

while i'm not a person who worries, i am someone who prepares for the potential of unfortunate things. most frequently i worry about things being stolen, but i worry about other things too. now that brendan works in napanee on tuesdays, he needs to pick up the car at KGH because that's when i do my volunteer shift. we came up with a good arrangement, but there was part of me that was concerned about what would happen if he couldn't find the car because the plan is that i'll park in a general area rather than one specific spot. so there i was fretting about this, when i remembered that there's like a 93% chance that what i was worrying about wasn't going to happen. so then i felt much better. not worrying about stuff is awesome.

on my way home, i saw her thru her living room window. it made me smile and happy. i'm glad she's well and back at home. it's good.

that's the way to my heart.
