Finally get to relax a little. Maybe it's a bit too warm to be under a blanket. Get away from me, blanket! Ahh, much better! Now, where's my phone?  See the full story with my IG Close Friends Access 😉

Trying to stay mentally calm, thinking about an ocean beach out in the Pacific Northwest 🤩 Early morning, cold breeze, my footprints being washed away as I walk...

It has been a great while since I've seen the ocean. Usually I don't go more than a couple months without visiting salted water of some sort. I believe I have an inner magnet to the ocean, or at least to big bodies of water. I've never been a big fan of staying in a land locked places for too long, and it kind of itches inside when it's been a while since I've seen a water-sky horizon.

And it all starts from the moment I get up.  On days off, if I don’t feel like getting out of bed right away, I just don’t. I’ll stay there maybe read a book for a few minutes, or just be on my phone. And when I come down to the kitchen and I don't feel like making breakfast, I just don't. And if all I want is to sip my coffee slow I do just that. And if that morning latte was so good that I want another one right after, then I go for it!...
