There Goes My Year

A year ago I finally took a chance and I started a blog!!  A blog, people, a blog!  I’m a blogger.  What?!?  This was one of the goals I made for myself on my 30th birthday – I love to write and I needed an outlet and I decided the whole world was just waiting […]

The Insane Squat Experiment

I once had this goal to do 1,000 squats in one day.  I even did a squat challenge a couple times to work up to it slowly, and get my muscles in gear.  Then I got bored.  Squats are boring, guys.  Up and down and squeeze the butt and sit back on the heels and […]

Some Thoughts on New Year’s Resolutions

Since mid-December I’ve been thinking about New Year’s resolutions, both in terms of purpose and recognizing the cliché.  Now that January is almost over, I thought I’d talk about making resolutions any time of year, and why January maybe isn’t the best time to start. In typical English nerd fashion, I’ll start with a definition: […]

November Schmovember

Some months seem to fly by, some months seem to take forever to reach the end, and some months given the appearance of sluggishness while zooming past like lightening.  The latter is the kind of month I just had.  Ugh. Seriously, it seems like just the other weekend we were creating costumes and heading to […]

Goaling Along

It’s already been 6 months since I started this little blog to keep track of my goals for the year… I can hardly believe how the time flew! Since I’m halfway to the deadline of my 31st birthday, I thought this would be the perfect time to check in on how I’m doing so far. […]

The Whole Point of “Tennis”

Wow I’m terrible at tennis! And just to be clear, in my dictionary “tennis” means whacking a tennis ball with a tennis racquet in or around the vicinity of a net; I don’t know the rules or how to keep score. I’d just be happy if my hubby and I were able to hit the […]

A Yellow Pansy in Deep Water

I can’t swim.  Sure, I can look like I’m swimming if I want to, but I have no doggie paddling skills to save my life and deep water is not something I go into without a life jacket, no matter how stupid they look (seriously, why can’t life jackets be fashionable and functional… but that’s […]

Weekend in Osoyoos

I get to check another goal off my list!  And this one was all fun and no work, which makes me a happy girl! When I created my goals, I wanted them to be more than about the food I’m eating and the weight I’m weighing and the exercise I’m getting.  I wanted my goals […]

Garden Love

Today is a crazy gloomy day guys!  Me and my coworkers compared it to winter because it was so dark out, still, at 10am.  Then the thunderstorms started.  This is such a departure from the beautiful and sunny +30 days we’ve been having, so I thought it was the perfect day to bring some beauty […]
