Sober Selfies #9 (shirts required please)

I’m not a Tampa Bay fan but I did see a first round playoff game while I was there a few years ago…I swear it was the most well done professional sports game I’ve ever been too. The production value was insane.

PS…sorry for the minor thread derailment.

We are expecting 101 today in New Mexico and had some 106-108 last week. It was horrendous! Not sure how 106 can ever feel “cool” but it does look like a nice day

Happy birthday! I know you provided a picture but the yellow minion in my head was hilarious

Well we tied records and broke records last week, 115s and 117s. It’s only 10 degrees but 106 is a freaking picnic compared to 116.

Monsoon has made an appearance, rain and only about 74 right now today. Monsoon can make the weather very bipolar here :rofl::rofl:

From my morning run. I’m kinda digging the early morning runs except the thoughts of possible murderers behind a bush :joy::joy:

IDK HOOOW you were running in the daytime, especially in NM! I’ve always been a morning runner, empty stomach. The solitude and silence is nice, plus its cool outside. Welcome to the club! The few times I’ve ran during the day, I’m cursing everything the whole time (in spring/summer, at least).

Morning running will serve me even better once I’m out in AZ.

That actually happened in the college town i live in. It was around 2 a.m. and she got dragged into a parking lot and stabbed to death. The building right next to where it happened was a police station. R.I.P Jodi Lynn Watts.

Be careful when you run there are fucked up people out there.

Yes! The struggle has been minimum since I started leaving at 5! It feels like a whole nother world and I love it! No one told me until just the other day. A therapist at pt told me she leaves at 430.

Some food for thought,

Have a safety plan, I’m guessing you have your phone with you, keep the GPS on, if you need some OC spray lemme know I got a few leftover from a woman’s self defense class we did a little while back, small compact and you can clip it on your shorts or shirt

Yea I keep gps on, have a planned route that my hubs knows about and have a small knife that fits in my leggings pocket. Honestly out here I’m more worried about animals than people
Thanks everyone for the concern :heart:

What’s a good brand? Compact?

Our neighborhood has next to zero crime. This happened in like 92’. The guy killed one other and eventually got caught. He was a social worker… crazy!

The day was good, except turning another year older lol. Thanks
