Those other me's
There is another me out there that is already at her goal weight. I can see that on the app. She's also finished her couch to 10k program. Good for her, this imaginary me that never gets derailed, or stressed, or tempted.
I guess it's time to pu... Read more
Down with colds
So I caught a cold this weekend. I am not a fan. Hopefully, it will pass soon. In the meantime, I wonder if coughing burns calories.... Read more
Stepping back a little
Sometimes it's nice to step back and look at the bigger picture. Lately, I've been a little stressed trying to fit in all my couch to 10k workouts while adjusting to a new job and take care of mom stuff. Last week was rough. One night I didn... Read more
President's Day
I'm more excited than usual for President's Day this year. Normally, it would be another holiday with a few interesting sales and maybe some cool history-related events. This year it's special to me because I will be starting my new job. I'm... Read more
New bag!

For Christmas, I wanted to treat myself to a new gym bag. However, there's nothing quite like achieving a goal to make me really appreciate something... Read more
Something new

One of my goals for this year was to learn something new. I like learning, I think it's a great way to add enjoyment to your life.

Checking in
It's funny how some New Year's goals are easier to fit in for me and some of them aren't. And it's not the ones I would expect.
I'm making good progress on my goal to run a 10k. I'm on week 3 of the couch210k program. I'm proud of myself for ... Read more
Snow!
I love snow. I think it's because I have such fun memories of it from childhood. Snow meant days off from school and was fun to play in. It could also mean chopping wood and power outages, but it was nice to spend time with family.
We had s... Read more

It's great to have a New Year, where everything is possible. Here are a few of my goals for this year.
1. Get a great new job.

Gingerbread
This year I decided to build a gingerbread house with three family. Last year I purchased 2 prefab kits, but both had broken pieces. Fortunately, part of one was usable enough to make a small house (it was supposed to be a village). It was ... Read more
Holiday spirit

I have a confession to make. I'm actually enjoying the hopefully small break between jobs. It helps that there are so many holiday activities. This ... Read more
Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving was one of my favorite holidays growing up. For various reasons, it was the one holiday, other than July 4th, that we would spend with our extended family. There was always so much excitement and so much food. I love turkey an... Read more
Monday morning
This will be the last week of work for a lot of my coworkers. I get to stay an extra week to finish closing down some of the IT stuff. The mood in the office is not great, even though it's a relief to finally know what's going on.
With the s... Read more
Strawberries
I've been thinking about the zen parable where a traveler is accosted on the road by a tiger. He runs away, as one does, but ends up hanging off a cliff face. The only thing keeping him from a fall to his death is a vine that he clings to de... Read more
Fall musings
This past weekend, my husband and I took the kids to a corn maze. It's one of those places with hay rides, bouncy castles, carnival games, and slides made out of old farm equipment. You know, just like olden-times. The kids played at full... Read more
