Life

I love Mondays! No, I really actually do, especially early in the morning. I sit alone drinking my coffee (even if I can get 3 minutes and 45 seconds, just to think).  I’ve got cranky kids walking down the stairs and Evelyn using her yogurt as moisturizer.   There’s a slight possibility I could be…

Blog As I’m approaching a year writing this blog I thought about how it’s changed and I love reflecting back on what was going on at any given time. Someone asked me today “What’s your blog about”, the first thing that comes to mind, is “What isn’t it about?” When I was thinking about starting…

I woke up this morning full of energy and ready for whatever the day threw at me.  It’s only fitting it’s the first official day of spring, and I didn’t even realize it until later in the day.  So open to whatever comes my way.  Speaking of new beginnings, I’ve been reflecting back to when…

Me  I’ve grown tired of chasing people. Life is too short, I don’t have time to waste on people that don’t want me in their life. We are here for a moment, just a moment and I can’t let that slip away from me, waiting. Treat me like I matter. I found myself slipping into old…

Just keep pushing. Miles and music  Yesterday was gorgeous and I got a good run in. Two hours, but I finished. I even walked a lot the last two miles, but I finished. My feet and hip were killing me, but I finished.  I can’t function without music, it’s just the way I am. I’ve…

“Don’t wait until everything is just right. It will never be perfect. There will always be challenges, obstacles, and less than perfect conditions. So, what. Get started now. With each step, you take, you will grow stronger and stronger, more and more skilled, more and more self-confident, more and more successful.” -Mark Victor Hansen  …

An old Facebook memory inspired my post today; it’s all about prep.  Having everything ready so the kids can pack their own lunch/snack in the morning, and after school is worth every minute of prepping. If I had more patience I’d get them in on this too – maybe one day :). My kids go…

Busy Monday. But as always (like every mom I know) multitasking. I decided to write while I wait at gymnastics, the nights get away from me. I’m so tired from my workout this morning I’d just like to lay down on the couch and eat muffins. 😆 Oh wait, that won’t help my cause. Kicking…

Have you ever wanted something for so long you don’t know what it feels like not to want it? Yeah, I’m there.   What’s on my mind I finally feel like I can write again. Although with the crazy week I’ve had it’s taken me several days to do so. I actually started this ten…

When you find something, you love, you typically can’t get enough. I always want more, it’s just in my nature. And I think sometimes my passion for more is a bit of a curse; I care too much. It can sometimes backfire, chasing those good feelings.     Being sick for I can’t count how…
