I Shopped My List.
November 11, 2013
I have a list of the last few items I’d like to add to my wardrobe to get me through the winter. I’ve been strictly adhering to the list, which has actually not taken as much willpower as I’d thought. Shopping has become more of a fun mission and I’m paying more attention to the…

Connecting the dots.
July 22, 2013
For the past few years since my youngest son was born, I existed just to connect the dots between things that dictated my schedule. Constantly floating and dragged along, I was just trying to make it to the next thing so I could call it a day and slip into my favorite state of sleep….

The Big 3-0.
July 20, 2013
It’s not a birthday, but it is worth celebrating: I’ve lost 30 pounds! This is what I’ve been working on since January, and why I’ve been slacking with this blog. I love everything about this “new” me. I’m disciplined, awake, alive, eating well, and getting strong. I’m glad to have hit this weight milestone, but…

Tuesday Update: gasp…it’s a garden!
April 30, 2013
Last August, I put together a list of goals that I was working toward. I have to laugh, because just yesterday, I planted my first vegetable garden. Yes, I’ve taken up gardening! I am shocked. I don’t like bugs. I don’t like being outside on hot days. I don’t like getting dirty. I’ve never liked plants…

Tuesday Update: Habit Forming.
March 5, 2013

Tuesday Update: Two Plus.
February 26, 2013
Remember last week, when I said I was only going to buy one top and one pair of pants for working out? Well, if you’ve been reading this blog, you know how well I do with sanctioned shopping. It was planned, I had “permission” to spend, and I had justification. I just didn’t have the…

Tuesday Update: One Size Fits Most (of Me).
February 19, 2013
It’s Tuesday! I bet you thought I’d skip an update again? Yeah, I thought I would, too. But only because the kids are on vacation and my days are off-schedule! I’m still working on one of my important goals, and probably will be forever. Replacing a bad habit with a good one, and in this…

Tuesday Update: Closet Purge.
August 28, 2012
One of my goals is to go through my closet and donate, donate, donate! Over the past few weeks, I’ve been very strict with what I put into the donation pile. I’ve even hemmed and hawed a bit, taking things back out of the pile…and putting them back in. There was a reason I put…
