I may have mentioned that I met my 500 miles in 2013 running goal. And I alluded to the fact that I spent a lot of time on the treadmill in the last 10+ months.
What I didn’t say was that “a lot of time” is probably 75% of the time, […]
I can’t really begin to put into words what Fitcation was like. People keep asking what it was, and I can’t really describe it. It wasn’t a conference, exactly, because there were no sessions. It’s kind of like a retreat, but the events, activities and meals were sponsored. The website […]

We went to Omaha for Labor Day weekend, and I wanted to share some of my favorites pictures from the zoo. I didn’t take my “big girl camera”, so these are all from my phone.
Sarah at The Sunday Spill and I want to see your funny, your yummy, your heartfelt, your favorite […]
