January Wrap Up
Whew! Was it just me or did January seem to drag on for about 87 years? It feels like it should probably be St. Patrick’s Day coming up instead of Valentine’s Day. January was such a busy month for me, with Yogapalooza and everything else that just kind of sneaks in there when you aren’t […]
My DIY Project Wrap Up
Being creative and making things is one of my favorite things to do. I love the process of putting elements together to create a design or watching something go from a blank canvas to a finished product. Sewing, baking, crafting, painting, you name it, I probably do it in some way, shape, or form! I […]
Workout Recap January 20th-26th
Yogapalooza is so close to the finish line! As of today, only five more days of classes. And I haven’t missed one yet (knock on wood!). It’s definitely catching up with me, though. I strained my neck this past week somehow, so I am still working on letting that heal. But I am noticing improvements […]
Cold-Weather Style
Living in the Midwest means that the weather can be a fairly temperamental bitch some days. You can leave in the morning for work and it will be 20 degrees out and by the time you head out the door to go home, it will be in the mid-’60s. That can make getting dressed more […]
Workout Recap January 13th-19th
Another week, another set of workouts. I have more or less two weeks of Yogapalooza left, and then my workouts will be a little more varied. I know it’s been non-stop yoga, but that’s the whole point of the challenge. Maybe I’ll get lucky and win the year unlimited! Fingers crossed and all that jazz […]
In Honor
I don’t tend to get too much into politics on the blog (or anywhere, really), but today is Martin Luther King Jr. day. So to pay homage to a person who not only stood up for what he believed in but stood up for all those around him, I thought that I would share a […]
Recipe Review-Stuffed Cabbage Casserole
Last fall, my sister sent me a text about something that she had seen on Facebook where two sisters who lived in different states Facetimed each other once a week and made a recipe together. Since she lives in Iowa and I live in Missouri, we decided to give it a try. We text and […]
Skin Care Routine
Skincare is something I’ve really only gotten serious about in the last couple of years. Before it was hit or miss as far as washing my face, never mind what I was actually putting on it. But as time has passed and I’ve spent more time reading and researching what goes into products and how […]
Workout Recap January 6th-12th
Another Monday means another week of workouts to recap! I spent this whole week feeling very much like I was dragging ass each day and I’m not really sure why I felt that way. I’m hoping that this week will be much better in the energy department. I’m 12 for 12 days this far for […]
Winter Reading List
For as long as I can remember, reading has been something that I’ve loved to do. I can remember sitting in class as a third grader and reading under my desk only to look up and realize that the rest of my classmates were working on multiplication tables. Or having to mark the spot that […]
