1. Going on a 6-mile bike ride to Turtle Cove and then going on a 2-mile walk/jog on the beach. 2. Being the only one in my family to not order dessert at dinner. I tasted a bite of theirs which was just as satisfying. 3. We had this chef come to the beach house [...]

Physical Changes In My Family: A Reflection
About to head to the gym. Feeling a little bored. I don’t have a computer because my Apple is at the Apple Store for repairs. Hopefully I will get my computer back this week! I got back on Saturday from the beach with my family. Had a great time jogging on the beach and eating lots [...]

Green Eggs & Sam
My brother-in-law, Sam, and I had a great talk yesterday. He used to be pretty chubby growing up. Right before he went off to college he lost about 70 pounds and has kept it off for nearly 10 years! Well, it’s way easier for men to lose weight, but still, it’s always been something that [...]

At The Beach!
I am at the beach with my family this week. We’re at Kiawah Island, SC – our beach destination for my family from the time before I was born. This will be my 27th consecutive year visiting the island! I still think I’m at a bit of a plateau which is totally frustrating me. But [...]

I Dress Therefore I Am
Tonight I came home and decided to try and find a pair of bermuda shorts/capris I own before I go to the beach next week. I think I wore the black pair once but they were too tight and uncomfortable. But tonight I tried them on and damn they looked awesome! Then I found the [...]

Be Your Own Disaster Relief Effort
I was at Outwrite yesterday reading the new Time Magazine. It’s on “How To Survive A Disaster.” This sounds pretty depressing – and I can assure you it was – but I guess I’ve always had a part of my personality that is intrigued with disaster. Not so much the disaster itself, but the Psychological [...]

The Incredible Shrinking…And Growing…Woman
These are definitely some of the kindest words anyone has ever said about me. I wouldn’t usually post someone else’s thoughts about me, but it’s a way for me to remind you that you are on your own unique journey’s in life. I won’t go into the context, and it doesn’t directly have to do [...]
