Life Loofah’s Lost Months (aka That Time I Had a Baby)
I birthed a baby y’all! Wahoo! These past few weeks with our brand new baby boy have been amazing and frustrating and tiring and exhilarating all at once. And when he’s cooing and smiling and wiggling, time seems to fly by. But when he’s uncontrollably crying and I’m in pain from breast feeding and I’m exhausted […]
Overthinking Kindness
To my surprise, one of the 32 goals I set for myself this year, to complete 12 random acts of kindness, has continually eluded me. To the untrained eye (you, dear reader) that might indicate that I’m just generally an unkind person, after all how hard can it be to be kind to someone at […]
A Poetic Pregnancy
Because I’m feeling all sorts of feels lately, I find my emotions best summed up in verse! Enjoy!
Wayward Goals
Over the course of this year, I’ve set out to accomplish a lot of goals. Some of those goals are even lists in amongst themselves, and so the list really is quite lengthy. As I near my 32nd birthday, I’ve been considering how best to approach completing as many as possible on that list, and […]
Gratitude Gems: Rescue Puppy Love
Welcome to Gratitude Gems, where I show a little appreciation for the good things in my life! I am so happy to have puppy love in my life… just look at that sweet face! When we decided to adopt a puppy from a rescue organization, we knew we were taking a bit of a risk; […]
October Fitness Challenge: Back in the Pool

My Most Exciting Goal
Some readers of this little ol’ blog may have noticed that this year I set myself a secret goal. No, this wasn’t just because I couldn’t figure out a 32nd goal for myself this year and decided to cop out and try to make it more exciting than it really was. It also wasn’t because […]
June Fitness Challenge: Planks & A Border Collie
We realized about two weeks in that we may have gotten in over our heads with our rescue pup, Harlowe. The day we picked her up, she had just undergone her spay surgery and was on medication for the next 5 days, so she was understandably subdued during almost the entire first week. A few […]
The Chess Adventures Continue…
I sure am a glutton for punishment sometimes. If last year’s goals taught me anything, it’s that sometimes forcing the issue really doesn’t help. Take chess for example. Sure, I learned to play chess, and it got me spending more time with my hubby doing something he likes to do, but did I ever come […]
