Great run, no device thursday

I purposely slept in today I have been waking up at 0544 everyday for weeks.  Very annoying, so I took a sleeping medication and slept in until 0930.  Immediately went for a run upon waking up. That extra sleep really helped.  I ran 9 miles in just over an hour which I am satisfied with.  Found 46 cents along the way!!!!!! 

When I am running, or just walking through a store I always say hi to everyone that I can.  Some seem shocked, some seem to be happy that they were noticed.  I feel that if I can make one person smile everyday then I am spreading joy, love, and sparkle..  Don't ever change who you are to please someone, you are only hurting yourself.  

Last night I made potato soup. Two separate pots lol. One with sausage and one with kale.  It was delicious I couldn't stop eating it.

I am making Zachary chocolate chip cookies for when he gets home from school. I have implemented a no device Thursday.  This applies to me as well.  No phones, tablets, video games, or computer for the entire evening.  I love technology, but,,,, I feel like quality time has been taken away and replaced with electronics.  Zachary agreed, and we shall see how well it goes.

I have used these excuses, have you? 

Do you have a device free day at your house?

How do you spread sparkle?
