I spent majority of yesterday painting our living room. I'm pretty sure at this point I just live covered in paint 24/7. The room looks and feels so light and airy, it makes me happy to just sit in there and relax. We have more yard clean up planned for today, with a trip to... Continue Reading →
The Great Purge
Material excess. That is a large part of the world we live in today. Fast fashion vs investment pieces. Instant gratification and impulse buys. Packed closets and overflowing dresser drawers. Not everyone has these issues, I know, but I've come across more friends dealing with the overabundance versus the minimal. I wanted to write this... Continue Reading →
Crank the Heat Up (Week of 7.22.19)
I learned from last week that I need to pay attention to my body and how it feels before pre-planning exact workouts each day. My body felt "off" earlier in the week so I ended up scrapping the long run and focusing more on a yoga flow. Thursday's workout had more jumping than normal in... Continue Reading →
Think Positive (7.19.19)
This was a trying week. I felt un-motivated to do MORE than needed and the days flew by pretty quickly without me accomplishing much. This is one of those times I have to push myself to think positively and get out of that negative rut. This week's loves: Ruffwear harness - I initially bought one... Continue Reading →
Change of Direction
I feel like I've been trying to figure out my life for the longest time. There was a span where I actually moved every 1-2 years - I went from New York ⇒ Texas ⇒ Virginia ⇒ Florida ⇒ and finally back to Virginia. I went from working as a college and/or high school athletic... Continue Reading →
Feel Well – Move Well (Week of July 15, 2019)
This week's focus is all about consistency. I lightened up my workouts over the weekend since I was helping to take care of my cousin's kids and I wasn't really sure what each day was going to entail {And by taking care of, I mean my mom was the responsible one while I did a... Continue Reading →
Good Vibes Only (7.12.19)
It's crazy that yet another week has gone by. We got back from North Carolina LATE Sunday night and I feel like the past days have been a blur. I sat here last night and tried to figure out what I actually did this week because I feel like I wasn't accomplishing things... but I... Continue Reading →
Fitness? Or Fit This Whole Pizza in my Mouth… (Week of July 8, 2019)
Now that I've escaped the oppressive death by humidity of Coastal North Carolina, I can get back to the regular scheduled workouts. I sometimes get nostalgic about Jacksonville because I lived there as a kid, and then we return every summer for this rugby tournament and I get a very fast reminder on why I... Continue Reading →
Bi-weekly Dose of Positivity (7.5.19)
Hope everyone had a fantastic 4th of July! I skipped last week's post with it being our last day in Vegas and a long travel day, so I'm combining some items from last week into this one. It was a short week at home and we've been hanging out North Carolina the past 2 days.... Continue Reading →
Vegas Lights
The second part of my vacation last week was spent in Las Vegas and was part work/part play. I had my national convention out there and K flew out to join me. He spent a lot of time at the pool and wandering around while I was in sessions but we also had a lot... Continue Reading →
