Five weeks. That’s how long it has taken me to start feeling normal. I injured my back, and it’s been real. I haven’t been immobile, but I have had to make a lot of lifestyle changes during the past four weeks. No prolonged sitting. That’s bananas! I work at my desk all day. Since this injury, […]
There are two important things you should know. It’s snowing. And I’m taking my last sip of coffee. Anyone who knows me or has ever looked at my social media accounts knows that I love coffee and snow. So while I contemplate over this last sip, I’d like to share with you some of my […]
I know the title of this post is a bit self serving, but it is true. I am so grateful that my mind has allowed me to make so many childhood dreams come true. There are still many goals I need to reach, but when I remember where I came from, it just amazes me. […]
I’m on my fifth glass of raspberry flavored seltzer, trying to get the night over with. I fell off the wagon for a week, which means I am now detoxing. I am watching Dancing with the Stars. It’s great to watch on DVR, but I cannot handle it with commercials. I don’t really watch commercials […]
My youngest has been home sick for an entire week. Actually, it’s been more than a week now. Poor thing has missed school and all sporting activities and fun stuff. October marks the beginning of my “let’s go crazy planning stuff to do” part of he year. I’m so damned happy it’s fall that I […]
Three glasses of Pellegrino and 3 sugar free Jellos are what it takes to get me through the night without cheating. And yes, I have to fight the urge to buy some ice cream and cookies every single night. Not during the day, daytime = super easy for me. It’s the evenings that kill me. […]

I am carb intolerant. There is no way around it. Even when I work out like a maniac and burn over 1,000 calories (yes I wrote 1,000), I will gain weight by eating carbs. The only carbs I can really handle are fruits and veggies, and the fruits are limited to 2-4 servings daily. Veggies […]
I used to be so sharp with everything, but especially my work. I could sit for hours at a pc and work work work. Now, I get frustrated by any noises, they break my concentration very easily. I also glaze over alot more often. That used to be an alien concept to me, I never […]
As usual, I’m feeling mighty mushy and miserable. Why? cause it’s that time of the month, and I’m in pain. So, that means I’m in bed watching the Bachelorette. I’m blessed to have my mother living with me, so she is taking care of my little one while I try to pass out here in […]
