I know it’s only been two days. I KNOW! LOL! But so far, this year is off to a great start towards meeting my goals. Because I believe in small goals and small celebrations when I meet those goals, I’d say I’m pretty successful. Why? 1. I have started exercising like I did in the … [Read more…]
There are all of these mommy-blog wars lately. I’m sure you’ve heard about them- people getting their garters all askew over something one mom wrote/said that was intended or unintended to be hurtful to other moms who are trying their best -gosh darn it! Righteous indignation is established. People feel judged, ridiculed and overwhelmed at … [Read more…]
You can always tell when I like a picture that I take of myself. The picture I took Thursday surprised me so I started making the infamous comparison pictures… The difference here is about five years and 130 pounds. 130! Isn’t that amazing?

I won’t go into details, but let’s just say that neither the children nor their teacher were in … [Read more…]
