Wed 17 Oct

The week goes on.... Enjoyed Chuck's birthday party last night, just a quiet get-together for a few people. We walked there and back and the evening was absolutely lovely. We would like to take advantage of more of these nice fall evenings just to walk the neighborhoods if we don't have time to hike. Was able to do the Burn It Up at close to full intensity today. Lacked a little stamina on the floor section that is always tough, not so much because of the knee as because I had a couple weeks off from this routine. Knee was a little fatigued on occasion but I believe it is continuing to get better. OMG, the Pumpkin Spice Cream Liqueur is delicious! Wow, supper was also amazing! My coworker gave us fresh venison steaks so I seared them in a little butter, sauteed some portabellas & onions, baked a squash, and roasted some small farmer's market sweet potatoes.
