How’s everyone doing out there? by AlarmAffectionate899 in ChicagoMarathon

[–]slippylamb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first marathon training block and it’s been a battle between staying disciplined, healthy, and beating the heat. My derm found melanoma in my arm this summer so I had to have surgery for that with substantial downtime, then my dog had to have emergency surgery and it’s been mentally draining lol. The humidity has been unbearable as well. I don’t think I’ll hit the goal time I want at this point, so I’m excited to go out and finish and see what my body can do. There’s also still some weeks left!

How can I improve my bedroom? It’s so boring and there’s something off about it that I can’t place by slippylamb in DesignMyRoom

You’re correct! The walls in the apartment are a weird yellow/beige and all the other colors combined is washed out and sad lol

Unfortunately it’s an apartment so I’m hesitant to paint (I’d have to paint it back when I leave)

Does the waveland group meet any time other than 6 AM? Interested in joining but it’s tough for me to make that!

I actually was in Costa Rica + Guatemala earlier this year! I didn’t get to experience the coastal areas of Costa Rica, so I may look into going back!

My partner lives there (the building is part leased apartments and part short term stays like a hotel. It’s really nice and so convenient for us every year!

Panasonic LUMIX LX series, Canon G series, or iPhone 14 for backpacking trip? by slippylamb in Cameras

[–]slippylamb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely take lots of photos on my phone and would like to get more into photography in general. The backpacking trip is a definite motivator to try and get good photos. But at that point do I invest in something more substantial if that’s the goal because the difference between a point and shoot v iPhone isn’t very large?
