Life

I hate clutter, all kinds. It drives me crazy, but I have to live with it to an extent. I’ve got three kids, It’s impossible to avoid it at this point. But each day I try to do something to combat that. It’s August and before you know it school will be starting (I’m not trying…

I’ll keep this short and sweet! It’s been a hell of a week, but I had this fun day time date to look forward to all week. The hubs and I don’t get out much alone together and when we do it’s like the moons have to align to make it happen. Nothing ever goes…

I’m going to share something I haven’t really shared before except with a few people very close to me. I sometimes have these mini epiphanies, this one happened to be during my mud run. This whole weightloss thing, it’s not a physical challenge, it’s a mental one. I’m very analytical by nature, it’s who I…

Yay! Sweet! After weeks (and more weeks) of gaining and losing the same few pounds…I finally made a breakthrough! Down 5 pounds! 🙂 I’ve been finding it hard to stay motivated lately, this helps though. I am truly, my own worst critic. I have a friend, who shall remain nameless, who talks (to) about herself…

I’m feeling pretty amazing right now. Nothing better than a super sweaty run at the end of the day…accept maybe a pool to jump in afterwards but ah well. I had the best run I have had I think since I was first pregnant; over a year ago. I’m not a fast runner and that’s…

Happy 4th of July…a little late.  I had a great weekend spending time with my family, getting tons accomplished, feeling recharged and ready for my week.  Big changes coming this week – stay tuned! 4th of July is also my wedding anniversary, the hubs and I celebrated 14 years this year! Crazy how fast time…

“With each new day comes new strength and new thoughts.” – Eleanor Roosevelt Happy Wednesday! (I know it’s late) I’ve had a super productive week so far, and its only Wednesday! Still clearing the clutter – it’s a daily process, one thing at a time. I’m getting myself organized, and can see the signs of…

Transformation Tuesday – Four years ago and present day, still a work in progress I shared an article on my Facebook page earlier today about judgment. I’ve struggled with this my whole life. Never be anyone else’s judge; the overweight person trying to workout at the gym; trust me it was hard for them to…

I’ve been on a little bit of a hiatus this past week.  Life got crazy.  But here I am.   Today was Father’s Day, we spent the day at the beach.  It was fun, the kids love it.  I love the beach, I always have, it’s so peaceful; we’re all in a better place while…

I made an amazing dinner last night. My kids love pasta, I do too but I’m always looking for replacements to get more bang for my calorie buck. I see so many recipes for spaghetti squash but honestly, I’ve tried making it before and I wasn’t a fan. I think it was the texture.  But…
