As another year winds down, I find myself disappointed, a little sad, and a little mad. Okay, more than a little mad. The backslide I’ve been in continued much too long, and while I have started over many times, I feel this time I really AM starting over. From the beginning. I can point the […]

I don’t really know why, but I was such a big grump this morning. As always, a good run was able to turn my attitude around. Unfortunately, it wasn’t before wrapping up my 5-ish miles with Lexa so she had to put up with my sass. Sorry, friend! Lexa is one friend I can solidly […]

If you’ve been following my road to the 2016 MCM, you may recall that I delayed my 12-mile training run this weekend. Saturday’s planned run would have to happen Sunday. My best friend Jenn and I had a blast at the Dixie Chicks concert, didn’t get a whole lot of sleep Saturday night, but we […]

This is a hard post to share. But I am sharing my journey….the ups AND downs. It’s tough when people don’t tell us what we want to hear. Or offer comments, unsolicited, that ruffle our feathers despite being true. I got upset with my husband this morning. As I finished making his lunch, I told […]

“People often say that motivation doesn’t last. Well, neither does bathing, that’s why we recommend it daily.” ~Zig Ziglar I know I have listed that awesome quote before in one of my blogs, but it’s good enough to be used again. Because it’s true. Motivation has to happen daily. I have been struggling lately. Being […]

It’s so easy, once you fall slightly out of routine, to continue ignoring what you should be doing. Eating right, exercising, and getting to bed at a decent hour are things that I have to constantly work at if I want to stay on track. Just like when you drive down the road…even if it’s […]
