Today is Day 211 of my Daily Food Diary. Today is also Dan and my 26th Wedding Anniversary.

We are having another nice quiet day today. I went for a walk with Dan and Molly earlier. Our air quality was No. 5 again due to ongoing forest fire smoke. It didn’t seem that bad, so I thought I would be ok. I was wrong. A few blocks in my lungs were so congested That I couldn’t keep up with Molly. I gave Dan her lead and turned back home. We were at a spot on our route where we could see almost to our house, so Dan and Molly waited until I got to our corner and then proceeded to finish their regular walk.
This afternoon, I am going to make a reservation for our short visit to Gravelbourg. Tonight we are going out for supper again. We are going laid back again. This time we are going to a Fish & Chip restaurant that Dan’s cousin has been recommending for months. We go out to eat so seldom now since I discovered my yeast issues, that we have to make the most out of it when we do. Tonight we are going to experience our new favourite fish joint! 😊
Obviously, another day without my daily run today. Yesterday, I ran on the spot on my kitchen fatigue mat. I will do the same today. If I can find a way to actually make running a regular part of my daily routine, I will look at investing in a fold-up treadmill for our spare bedroom. I know that come winter, I won’t be running on the snow and ice anyway, so I might as well start looking at options!

A lovely photo!! ❤️ I’m sorry that you had to turn back for home but you have to do what the body tells you sometimes. I like my little treadmill and use it one to three times a day for five minutes so far. The herniated lumbar make it painful to walk longer than that.

Thank you, John! As long as you use it. 👍 I keep thinking of getting a gym membership but then if I have bad months or whatever… It could end up being a bad investment. 🙂

Happy Anniversary and congratulations on 26 years! I’ll be interested to hear your review of the new fish n chips place. We visited Gravelbourg a few summers ago when we were trying out glamping in our new to us motorhome in new to us places across the province. It’s such a pretty town with a great history! The smoke these days is devious. You can’t really see it or smell it, but it’s still there, doing its number on the air quality.

Thank you, Terry! Gravelbourg has always been a nice place to visit. It’s funny you mentioned glamping. I have a friend from New York and one in Colorado that I talk to every morning. I mentioned glamping one day and they thought that was too funny. They thought I had just made it up. 😂 Have a great rest of your day! 💞☺️

I wouldn’t mind trying it. If they are sweating, they wouldn’t be focused on me trying to figure out how the machines work. 😂

Happy anniversary! The smoke from the wildfires is really affecting the air quality here in New Hampshire, USA. I feel for you. Karla/Clampetts

Thank you, Karla. We haven’t had much smoke the last couple of days. Apparently it is worse in Toronto and some states. 🤷
