As I wait for book #4 in the Empyrean series to come out, I looked for something else in the fantasy genre. I found a series that I read when I was young (this book was published in 1977) and bought them on eBay. It took a minute to dig in, but once I did, I really enjoyed it.
Clearly I almost messed up drawing Lannette’s flag. When I realized I was running out of space I almost left out an “N”. I thought no one will notice. Ha! I knew Lannette would so I went with a raised “A”.
I do not know what this signifies other than life regularly hands us something that does not fit. In the list of Strength Finder’s 34 strengths “Adaptability” is #34 for me.

Last Friday morning, I did my first VO2 max test. This is the maximum rate of oxygen your body can use during intense exercise. Why does that matter, you ask? A high VO2 max means your heart and lungs are more efficient, linking directly to a lower risk of chronic disease like heart disease and diabetes. Now I have my score, and I can continue to work harder at improving it!
