Neighbors

Two years ago $#!t when down in the neighborhood.  When I say $#!t went down, I mean it exploded.  It was kind of like a constipated infant that gets a little bit of apple juice to help things along; when the rumbling starts watch out because it goes up the back, in the hair, literally […]

Persevering

This morning I had a heavy heart.  A two pounds heavier heart than I had last week, which made weighing in a difficult thing to take this beautiful chilly morning.  I was letting myself get disappointed when I realized something.  This is not a quick fix.  This not something a band-aid will fix, THIS is […]

Trust your gut

Where is the reset button? Somewhere on our bodies there must be a reset button. I want to get back to the factory settings. Some people have these natural gut instincts that never steer them wrong. I would like to have this unnatural superhuman trait, but I do not. The problem is I like to […]

Thrive

I was one of those girls you probably hated in high school. Not because I was mean and popular but because I could eat anything and loose weight. I have always eaten whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted. When I was pregnant I didn’t look pregnant. My stomach looked more like two chipotle burritos stacked […]

Let it go

2014 was not an easy year for marriage.  At least for my marriage.  All relationships experience ups and downs throughout but 2014 was a mostly down year for us.  The big D (and I don’t mean Dallas) crossed both of our minds. *                *         […]

Happy New Year!

I don’t feel ready for this year.  Time is consistent, it passes whether you’re ready or not.  Now it’s day two of this New Year and I’m just not ready for it. Besides biking across MN, running virtual races and paying off a credit card I will also keep this list in mind.   This […]
