I do believe I need an intervention. I've started (yes, again….don't judge) the Couch25K program. I'm hoping that by the time The Color Run lands in Kansas City, I'll be more of a jogger than a wogger (you know…that oh-so-hot combination of waddling and jogging).  I keep trying to push aside those thoughts from [...]

I'll admit it….it's really pretty cool that someone nominated my blog again this year for the Top 25 Single Mom Blogs at Circle of Moms. I feel like I neglect this place far too much, especially when there are really cool things going on that deserve to be blogged about. BUT, I feel like maybe [...]

I have a confession to make: I'm a bit schizophrenic online. What I mean by that is I have two distinct presences (at least, I hope I do); my personal blog, which is this one, and my business blog (which gets even less action from me than this one does). I try very hard to [...]

I've been trying to write an 'ABC's of Me' blog post for almost 2 weeks now. Have been trying to work on my One Little Word assignment for the same amount of time. I'm failing. If you go to any seminar these days the speaker will likely tell you that there is no such thing [...]

I've been thinking of the Day 14 prompt for far too long. Not because it's tough, but because I can't narrow it down. The question 'where is somewhere you'd like to travel?' is much easier to answer if I list the places I don't want to travel. I'm not obsessive about it (I think of [...]

  It all started with an article in O Magazine. I was fascinated with Paige Williams' story, and felt a kinship that only another divorced, depressed and overweight woman could feel. I admired that she was able to survive an entire 60 days of Bikram Yoga, and a tad bit jealous that she got expert [...]

Welcome to the June 1st One Little Word Blog Hop. In case you're new, the hop was started by Margie (who, by the way, spends a considerable amount of time organizing, communicating and publishing in an effort to bring us all together….so thank you, Margie, for all you do!) . If you're going in order, [...]

Reverb10 Day 12– Body Integration: This year, when did you feel the most integrated with your body? Did you have a moment where there wasn’t mind and body, but simply a cohesive YOU, alive and present?  Courtesy of  Patrick Reynolds. This makes me nervous, but it really doesn’t take  a Rhodes Scholar to figure out [...]

Reverb10, Day 11–11 Things What are 11 things your life doesn’t need in 2011? How will you go about eliminating them? How will getting rid of these 11 things change your life? courtesy of Sam Davidson Well, let’s see. Thinking about things my life doesn’t need is simple but Lord knows that even though there [...]

Reverb10 December 10 – Wisdom. What was the wisest decision you made this year, and how did it play out? prompted by Author Susannah Conway  Full disclosure: I avoided this prompt yesterday. Wisdom is such a big word…so much bigger than smart, clever, accomplished, intellectual, knowledgeable…bigger, even, than the definitions I found when I felt [...]
