This week marks a year (A YEAR) since I began writing my blog. If I have learned one thing about myself on this quest of self-discovery; I wish it hadn’t taken me 34 years to learn how to love myself, and know that I’m worth so much more than I give myself credit for. Treat…
Commentary from the finish line
There once was a girl with a crazy idea; “I’m going to run a half marathon” she said, “no big deal”. I’ve been training for this since December when said crazy idea came to mind and I whipped out my credit card and signed up. I was home alone and only under the influence of…
Worth so very much more
As I’m driving from errand to errand, the baby is screaming, and my boss is texting asking if I’m available. I got up at 5am today to work, so I’m not ignoring the kids all day. It’s spring break, and I don’t want my them to go back to school thinking they didn’t get to…
Everyday Struggle
What is it about space and time apart that makes it weird? That you have start over each time? Tip toeing forward until you can let your guard down and then relax. Trusting my own struggle, everyday. I started writing Friday and then again Saturday but never got back to it. Day one spring break…
TGIS
What a week it’s been! I felt like a machine this week. Focused. I worked more hours in any given day then I have in some weeks (at times). All while tending to my poor sweet girl. One topic I’ve been contemplating all week as it applies to all areas of my life – Do…
Transformation Tuesday
I know it’s Wednesday already, but life was happening and I didn’t get a chance to write. Weighing In For the past thirty days I’ve been staying away from the scale (I cheated a few times shhhh). I was super excited to step on after the last thirty days to see some big loss and…
Step Forward
Me For the first time in years, I don’t know what I want. It’s both exciting and terrifying. This is exactly where I need to be right now, and I am open to all possibilities. The good thing is I don’t have to decide today, or tomorrow. Whatever comes my way, I’m ready. Years 2013-2016…
Just a moment
Reset, refocus, and move forward. For the past three years, I’ve had a direction in mind of where I wanted to go professionally, and now that’s changed. For months, I’ve been agonizing over this job wondering what my fate would be, I question everything and it’s really hard for me to trust people. I can’t…
Monday
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…
What isn’t it?
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…
