Sometimes we just need to be our own superhero. My future husband has really gotten me more into Marvel and DC Comics films. Like, it’s a thing. We try to see the movie the day it comes out. Even if it turns into a late night. We’ve been together through… Deadpool Civil War Dr. Strange […]
Abs are made where?
I’ve been watching a lot of superhero movies recently. Thor. Wonder Woman. Wolverine. Civil War. Superman. And when you look at a lot of these actors who portray super heros, they really LOOK the part. Why? Because they look strong. Physically capable. BIG. And in those shirtless scenes (for the guys, of course!) … RIPPED. […]
That’s why pencils have erasers…
For anyone who is keeping track of this blog, I blog on the days that I workout. That’s how I keep myself accountable. And I worked out yesterday. And did not post anything. I had something in the works. But by the end of the day I was tired and just not in the mood. […]
The importance of separation
I had a fabulous weekend. As did my fiance. We spent time with people we love. And did things we love. Michael had his Bachelor weekend in Miami and enjoyed some fancy dinners, nights out on the town, and college football (“It’s all about the U!”). Me? I indulged in […]
Just me and my cat. And wine. And Netflix. #introvert
I won’t lie. I love my nights in. On weekends especially. And this weekend? At least two weekend nights in. Woohoo! I was up at 4 a.m. to drive my fiance to the airport for his Bachelor Weekend. In Miami. Slightly jealous. Will I miss him? Of course. But I am really looking forward to […]
Like a kidney stone…
Sometimes we have our “off” days. And low moments. And ARGH. Or UGH. Or WAAAAAAH… Or W.T.F.?!?!?!?! Yup. I’ve been having a lot of those. Yes, I post lots of positive/inspiring stuff on social media. But that’s mainly in the morning to pump myself up for the day. And it’s real. I’m generally in a […]
Being a kid
I love Halloween. I’m not sure what it is about it. The excitement in the air. The kids and their costumes. The adults and their creative costumes. We had “Storybook Character Day” at school today. And then we had a little parade to participate in a school-wide walk. It was soooo much fun! The kids […]
Why I don’t do cardio
“How much cardio do you do?” Ummmmm…none? And I have a few good reasons. #1. It bores me. #2. It’s not necessary for my current fitness goals. #3. It bores me. LOL. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not “anti-cardio” by any means. For me, cardio supplements my goals. And at the moment, my goals are […]
Like a tree…
I had a private piano student ask me a very revealing question during his lesson last night. He’s a senior in high school and had commented on always being told by teachers, “This is just preparing you for __________”. In fact, my co-worker and I just had a long talk with our 5th graders about […]
TBT: What’s up with that tan?
I recently had a Facebook memory pop up from 3 years ago when I had won 1st place at a figure competition. Actually, that was the second to last show I competed in. It’s been awhile! But I look at that picture and the tan just cracks me up. It truly does. And you might […]
