Last week was an interesting one, full of SUN. Join me as I revisit my very eventful days. Day 5 (October 15th) – Since the CO fall season has decided to rock average tempratures somewhere between the high 70s and the low 80s, D and I have decided to go outside as much as possible. Given…

Expectation vs. reality
Nothing better than changes to shake things up, and not exactly the way you expected. You finally get that promotion you’ve been waiting for, only to realize you no longer have any clue what you’re doing. Wonderful. Life goes on, and hopefully you learn some things along the way. Here are some of the lessons…
New month, new focus
Last month I had a single goal: getting into the habit of exercising. I didn’t want to think about whether or not I was losing weight, nor did I want to worry about how many calories I was ingesting. Going to the gym was stressful enough (stupid, I know), I didn’t want to add to…
Zero dark thirty
I cannot believe it’s actually been 23 days since my last post. TWENTY-THREE DAYS. As if I needed yet another reminder that time flies when you’re procrastinating.

The 30-day phenomenon
Lately I’ve been thinking about all these things I want to do and accomplish. I’m getting all sorts of inspiration from my FEMALE friends, who are all SUPERSTARS and are constantly accomplishing new feats. I could pretend and tell you they don’t know they’re superstars, but that would be a lie. These women are strong, powerful,…
Here come the runs
I survived the first four days of my gym challenge. Only 26 more to go… Today is the fifth day since I started my 30-day gym challenge. It’s been six days since I got back to work, seven since I got back from vacation after a 24-hour trip. I’m jet lagged, sleep deprived, and exhausted,…
