It Happened. Again.
We adopted another dog. Again. My poor husband! Along with our Chihuahua/Pug mix, and our Chihuahua/Terrier, we now have a Terrier/Lab lovebug! Yes, for cat people we are now dog gone crazy! (Couldn’t resist!) Life with this lug has been interesting! He has about 30-35lb on Buck and Whitney. He loves everyone and is eager to please! He… Continue reading

Resolutioners
I love this season. Reflections, taking stock of accomplishments, setting new goals, appreciating the good of the past while looking ahead with anticipation of what the next year might bring. Lately much of what I hear at the gym is, something along the lines of, “Oh yeah, just wait until January! All the New Years’… Continue reading

I Don’t Think I’ll Miss My Toast
My niece over at Hangin’ By A Thread texted me last week a picture of this book, Whole30, with the description: This is my December. Hmm. Not one to let a challenge go by, (without further investigation) I jumped on board saying, “Hey! I’ll do it with you. It’s only 30 days, right? No big deal that… Continue reading

Halloween
I LOVE Halloween. Like, a lot. Probably more than most people. More than Christmas and my birthday put together. It’s one day a year where you can dress up like a lunatic, act crazy, get candy from strangers and it’s all perfectly acceptable! What’s not to love, right?! Previously I’ve been Cat in the Hat… Continue reading

Happy Birthday Jacob!
My kid is 7 today. My “On this day” Facebook feed is me every year exclaiming how “I can’t believe he’s ___ years old already!” Time is such a fluid concept both rocketing so fast and crawling by simultaneously. 7 years ago I became a mother. Parenthood changes us, beeaks us open to a different… Continue reading

Motivation’s Opposite
If yesterday was all about how we stay motivated to be consistent in our workouts, today is the exact opposite. It’s been a week. I had appointments all lined up, new clients no-showed, others were late. Some showed up when they didn’t have appointments. It’s just one of those weeks where you have to laugh and roll… Continue reading

Our Swelfies
Anyone that’s read this blog or (knows me in real life) knows that I LOVE accountability when it comes to fitness! What started out as a fun idea to take sweaty selfies and keep each other motivated to workout and be consistent has since turned into many things. It’s often more than just physical. It’s… Continue reading

Push Pull
I think most people are the same in that we often have opposing ideas. Our ideals can often contradict our reality, such as our beliefs not always being aligned with our actions. If I had my way, I would live in a world without clutter. Paperwork and “stuff” that litters our countertops in piles would… Continue reading

The Question
“Do you love running those long miles?” she asked me in an ongoing text conversation. We do swelfies (sweaty selfies = swelfies) with each other as an accountability check for both of us. It’s what battle buddies do! It was a question that hit me like a ton of bricks. I thought to myself, “Wow. I hadn’t… Continue reading

Weekend
Sigh. The fall around our house is busy. Probably not as busy as some, but for us it’s the busiest season. Eric is umpiring football (nearly every night). Our kids are starting to get involved in extracurriculars, school is in full swing, I went back to work, and I decided to throw in marathon training… Continue reading
