It was hard for me as an adult to change my eating habits. Changing my kids eating habits has been taxing, challenging, and just plain DIFFICULT! Some days are better than others. One particularly bad day happened at the local grocery store. My daughter actually burst into tears in…
I haven’t blogged in over a month! It’s “scandalous “! Actually it is literally a scandal…. I’ve developed a little Scandal addiction on Netflix. Anytime I’m on my iPad, I’m watching Scandal and not blogging! I’ve been pretty committed to Olivia Pope and Fitz- blowing through 4 seasons in record time. I’ve noticed that about … Continue reading
I was in a big fight yesterday. It was with myself. It was during my run. I’m not sure there was a winner. I sort of fell off my P90X wagon about 2 weeks ago. I was loving P90X! I still love P90X! But sometimes, life gets in the way. It was my birthday on … Continue reading

I’ve been writing a blog post about how tired I’ve been; how tired I was during my workout classes and how tired I’ve been of cooking clean food. I couldn’t even seem to finish the … Continue reading
At the end of the summer, the thought of working full time for an entire school was overwhelming. I honestly didn’t think I could do it! Well, I’m about to do it since my teaching contract just got extended for the entire school year. I’m feeling confident about it all because of push-ups. Push-ups. I … Continue reading
Right this minute, I’m suppose to be emptying my bedroom of all its contents. I’m not. I’m sitting on the porch, with my dog Boyd, drinking a coffee and I just played an epic game of Candy Crush. I am a procrastinator. I have been emptying my room, since now it belongs to my daughter. … Continue reading
It’s Strawberry season! Last week we were on vacation at the cottage and I was afraid I was going to miss picking strawberries. We bought a basket from a road side stand but those berries were destined for eating and dockside strawberry margaritas. I LOVE to bake so I was hoping the strawberry season would … Continue reading
