I am totally going to make it work. Maybe. When Joshilyn first suggested we gear up for a fashion challenge, I have to admit—I felt rather smug. “This will be easy for me,” I thought. “I like to shop. I like clothes. I’m relatively happy with my body, and I’ve seen nearly every episode of [...] Yesterday I was at the gym. I realize that starting every post like that makes it sound like I spend every day at the gym. I don’t. But Wednesday is my day to go to the gym and my night to post, so let’s enjoy the illusion, shall we? Anyhow, there I was, warming up on [...] Hey! Remember last week? Operation Do-Over? Wasn’t that a great idea? Yeah. Except that the day before my mother-in-law arrived for a visit*, which meant lots of other family arrived. And what is it about family gatherings that collects food? Everything was thrown out of whack. Meals morphed into massive feed-a-thons. Ice cream was indulged in. Workouts [...] Please, just five more minutes? Oh, HELLO again! How ARE you? Last time we spoke here, I was WHINING in a most unattractive manner about how my summer was going to suck in a thousand pitiful ways.

I’m getting lost in my own metaphor. Anyhow, I thought I’d stop by and visit for a while. Do you mind? Well, you might when you hear what I have [...] I don't know how to say "flag" in French. You? If you’re serious about learning French, go to college. Because the most sensible way to learn anything is to find an expert who will meet with you daily to assign homework, collect assignments, administer tests, and write on the chalkboard in front of you. That’s why [...] Way back in December, I promised a friend who was organizing a charity event that I would participate. I knew that the event was sometime in April, and that I would have to climb some stairs. This promise was built upon three things: 1. I needed a plot arc for our 10 week fitness challenge here [...] For educational purposes only. The author is in no way suggesting that her house, your house or the house of anyone, living or dead is, has been, or will be this condition. We’ve all had this happen. You’ve been sick for weeks. Your husband has just come home from out of town, and your [...] And PINK. But I might like them even more if they came in GLASS. Once upon a time I went to the SportsMart to buy a new pair of running shoes. I was looking for a shoe with padding and the heel flange that gave my stride stability, but one with a more flexible sole. [...] |
