I love that song, by Gavin DeGraw, every time I hear it I turn it way up.  What’s that saying? Some days I can conquer the world, and other days I put laundry in the oven.  Yup, pretty much. Tomorrow will be better!   Every morning, we get a chance to be to different. A…

  I broke and cried the ugliest cry this morning. I tend to carry a lot on my shoulders and I just couldn’t anymore. I’m overwhelmed. I slept terrible last night (or didn’t sleep really). I did my respective drop offs, came home cried out my ugly cry and jumped in the shower. We all…

Today reflected a large amount of questions, thought, and opportunity. We had a morning here, let me tell you.  Woke up late, unfinished homework from the weekend, missed the bus…spilled breakfast you name it, it happened.  While I was on my now drop off rounds (since we were so late) a thought popped into my…

While my main focus with this blog is weight loss, it involves your entire life.  I’m a mom with three kids, two in various activities. I don’t have the luxury of just dropping everything for the gym and focusing on how many lettuce leaves are on my plate.  I’m busy, as we all are. My…

I dragged myself out of bed this morning at 4:45am…got dressed, put my shoes on, and left for the 5:30am spin class.  It’s been a while! . It’s so early but I knew it would be my only opportunity to work out today and I need to get some spin time in. I was super…

It’s been a busy few days! I’m feverishly reworking my website, getting the kids organized to start school, and the laundry pile never seems to end! Total full mom mode! We had a great time on Friday night at the pep rally for football – Matthew is so excited to be playing again this year…

What do you think about when staring out the car window? I had every intention of blogging while I was away. I even started writing a little, while I was on the beach, but I wanted to wait, and I’m glad I did. Most of the time the words pour out of me, and sometimes…

I can’t sleep – this never happens to me! I’ve got so much stuff swimming around in my head; no one is going to want to read my blog if I’m not making any progress, what’s my deal? I had to have this discussion recently with a friend. Her response: people like your blog because…

This is the earliest I have EVER started packing for vacation, I’m usually up til 2am the night before we leave frantically folding laundry and over packing.  It’s so adult like 🙂 I even started a new playlist for those magical beach runs, I’ll share when I’m done. Summer is winding down, as we get…

Hey, I said the end of last week didn’t end well. I kind of kicked ass the last few days, working out, eating well. But one day (or a few) isn’t going to make up for days of being bad. I jumped on the scale this morning..up 2. Okay then. My first thought “damnit, I…
