I’m not going to lie, I’m equal amounts super excited and super nervous about tomorrow. There are moments when the thought of what awaits tomorrow comes to mind and I feel totally confident and at ease, I don’t even think twice about it. Then there are moments when I get too much in my head… Continue reading I set the bar
Hello all you lovely and beautiful people out there! It’s September 1st! I have a friend that loves firsts. First days of the week. First days of the month.

It was a regular morning at work when I decided to steal a little break time and check my personal email account. As is the norm there was a barrage of junk email and I began my ritual of just click, click, clicking away on the little box to the left, choosing emails I would… Continue reading Triathlon 2017
Not too long ago there was a post about Staying Regular from Daily Prompt and I thought how much this applied to me. I’ve been neglecting my blog for some time, and when I do get on here it’s usually very sporadic. I think once it had even been close to two months (if not… Continue reading Disconnected

This was how my humbling experience began this evening, and in the end… Continue reading The Scapegoat Is Out To Lunch
I am a Piscis, and very true to my nature I love being in water – specifically in a pool. I love to swim laps or just swim underwater and imagine, (yes even at my present age) that I’m a mermaid in my own little underwater world. I can’t even begin to put in words… Continue reading These Legs Were Made For Running
This weekend I became inspired to challenge myself with another goal. For those that know me well it’s no secret that my cooking skills leave something to be desired. In my defense though I have to say I’ve come a long way in the last 5 years, precisely the amount of time I’ve known my… Continue reading Finding My Inner ‘Top Chef’
Good morning everyone. Today is a day of setting goals and with that in mind I took the plunge and just signed up for my very first 5K run! This will be for the 2011 Cinco de Mayo Half Marathon and “Reaching for the Cure” Run/Walk for Pediatric Cancer Research Foundation to be held on May 1,… Continue reading Attempting my first 5K run
