My story begins in a Wendy’s drive-thru, but this story isn’t about food or will power. In fact, I am not even sure what the story is about, I just knew it had to be written. When I pulled up to get my order, I noticed that the lady who was going to help me […]

So…What?
At nearly 35 years old, I found my first four-leaf clover So, apparently I really like to use the word “so” and “apparently.” There has no relevance to what I want to write today, but every time I start a post I have to backspace away the “So” at the top of my page. SO, […]

A Great BIG Hug From Washington State
I don’t feel like writing. I know that I have to, and I know it will make me feel better. I don’t know what to write about this week. So welcome to my stream of consciousness, as if that isn’t the norm. A really good friend said something to me tonight that cut through me, […]

Just checking in

Thanksgiving wrap up
So this week is supposed to be my post Thanksgiving Mamavation Monday post where I tell you that I did not overeat, that my oil-less deep fried turkey was a hit, and that no one complained too much about the flop that was my organic green bean casserole. However, I can only think of how […]

I speak a lot about my “fit friend” Jenny on this blog, and there are plenty of reasons I do. Most weeks, and this is no exception, it is because she is an inspiration to me. You can read my previous post here as to why I did not join her for this weekend’s Jack […]

Operation Never Forget

We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful day, and I wasn’t even running late. As I drove up the Boulevard to the downtown area, I could see where this flag was to be hanging above all of the buildings as far as the eye could see. This is a big day for our community, […]
