I started on day 4 of the Whole 30
I think the anxiety buildup of starting was ten times worse than actually starting. Besides either accidentally using too much olive oil in 2 dishes last night or using bad garlic in one, it’s been smooth (I threw up pretty much everything I ate for lunch and dinner and thanks to work, had to almost…

This past week has been crazy
Since leaving my job, I have been working on my Nano project- which turned into a short story I will be putting out somehow when I get it finished and a novel I am wanting to self publish when I get it finished. I have decided that, instead of trying the traditional route, I’m going…

How Many Times Have You Had to Reheat the Same Cup of Coffee?
I’m sure any other coffee addict moms can answer. I think my record for reheating coffee was about 5 or 6 times- including 2 times without drinking any because I forgot to take it out of the microwave. Once I left a cup of decaf in the microwave, forgot about it because we were so…

I never thought a bowel movement would excite me
I was always beyond disgusted about the whole concept. I still can’t say p**p without gagging but my 7 year old was born and we began a battle around a year with constipation. She’ll get so backed up at times, she has been hospitalized. There are times she’ll be so constipated, she’ll cry while doing…

This coming June I’m taking my first ever paid vacation from work
Since I’ll have a full week off, I have decided that the month of June I am going to try to do one post a day and come up with either 1 post or one article to submit to a magazine or blog every day through June. Coming up with ideas shouldn’t be too difficult.…

Day 6 of the 21 Days Happiness Challenge
Today was to start with a meditation. I got off to a rocky start, but I did get a minute or two in. I have been trying to get it in daily- different times of the day, though. Tomorrow’s challenge- “Today, be mindful of the quality of food you are eating, and start each meal…
