KNOW
Did you sign up for the “Ten Days or Whatever of Kwanzaa” holiday gift from Cards Against Humanity? Did you know that the private island was a real thing? From now on, I will brag about the land I own on Hawaii 2. All square foot of it.

FITNESS UPDATE
I thought I’d add my fitness success and struggles to this post as a follow up to this and a way to keep myself accountable. I only exercised three days this week, thanks to a work event, a basketball game, and a happy hour (excuses, excuses). I also let my Weight Watcher obligations slip. Not surprisingly, I only lost .4 pounds this week (2.5 total). On the bright side, I’m down a total of 1.5 inches from my hips in three weeks!

I’m not religious in the slightest but I can’t resist stunning architecture and the opportunity to climb hundreds of cathedral stairs for a city view. This one only had a single rest stop about halfway up the flight of 275 steps for a closeup view of the flying buttresses — and a waiver you had to sign before your ascent to promise you’re healthy enough to make it.

Visiting York earlier this month put us in the Hal Visiting York earlier this month put us in the Halloween spirit. While it claims to be the most haunted place in Europe and is dubbed the city of a thousand ghosts, we only encountered the wire-mesh sculptures of Ghosts in the Gardens (@the_york_bid) and the family of souvenir ghosts I brought home from @yorkghostmerchants.
