Life

Yesterday, my daughter turned ten. I can’t believe it. I know it’s so cliché to say, but I literally feel like she was just born yesterday. It’s amazing how fast time flies by. We spent the day together just talking, running around, getting pampered and shopping. It was priceless. The bond between mother and daughter is…

Have you ever wanted something so bad you can taste it? The sweet taste of victory! Every day I get up, get dressed and get closer to my goal. It’s all a juggling act, I know I’m not alone. I had a few discussions in the last couple days about this. I (and most other…

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…
