Importance of Visual Cues

I feel like since just before Christmas, I have been in a bit of a funk. I feel a bit overwhelmed at work, at home, in the social networks, in the gym. A few weeks ago we took a little trip and I picked up a cute bracelet that because somewhat of a mental note […]

Strong girls finish.. last?

January 6, 2013

Is it unreasonable to want to be the best at everything? Like now? Okay, how about not the best, but how about at least not last? I’ve been doing this Crossfit thing for just over two weeks now, and still, I come in last. All the time. I do not consider myself an athlete, but […]

Rockin’ New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day

January 2, 2013

You would think with one year ending a new year beginning, it would be nice to take it easy and enjoy the transition period.. but nope! This girl rocked Crossfit on both New Year’s Eve AND New Year’s Day! It’s funny how the mentality of Crossfit works. I struggle HARD in the classes. I see […]

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

December 27, 2012

It has been over a week since I blogged and it has been honestly quite pleasant. I have checked up on Twitter and Facebook just to see the random musings over the past week, but between last-minute shopping, family functions, working out, eating poorly, and other priorities getting in the way, it felt nice to […]

I can’t say no.

December 19, 2012

If you personally know me, you will know that I have hard time saying no. I always get suckered into doing things I really don’t want to do or end up “volunteering” for projects or throwing money to one cause or another. It’s not that it’s a bad thing. It sometimes could be a blessing in disguise. I […]
