A while back I wrote a post about Crossfit and dating. It was not meant to make me come off as shallow or pretentious or anything; rather it was me finally finding a happy place in being by myself. It was months after having my heart broken, and it was through Crossfit that I was able to […]

Happy Friday! It has been one of those weeks where it seems like everyone except for me is on vacation, which has made the day job pretty uneventful with no one around to delegate work or come up a million and one requests for reports or interpreting reports. Nice and peaceful- always a plus! Last […]
Is anyone else in the Midwest area? I am absolutely loving these early-fall type temperatures we have been having in Michigan! Yesterday was the first time I put on a pair of jeans since probably June; I have been living in sundresses and skirts for work and going out, and rocking the short shorts for staying […]
Holy dang, it’s July! I have been busying myself with my middle sister’s wedding (crazy!), taking a little vacation, painting my living and dining room, lots and lots of Oly lifting, and prepping for an upcoming partner Crossfit competition, with a team name inspired by Girls Gone WOD!

I don’t know if this is a cliché old-person saying or what, but seriously, where does the time go? I think we are finally over the deep freeze in Michigan as after a few nice days, 50′ feels chilly, where it felt like a heat wave just a few weeks ago! Let’s talk about some things […]
I have always been thin, so it was a bit of a surprise when I started gaining weight with Crossfit. I was born a preemie almost two months early, wore a size 4 in second grade, and didn’t start my period until just before I started high school. In high school I lived on macaroni, […]
Geez, it’s a week into March already? It’s hard to tell, since we have been continuing to live in the Polar Vortex in Detroit and the thought of anything above 30′ seems like it would feel like summertime! Another week gone by, and not too much new and exciting has been going on over here […]
