Always evolving, Never Average
On Friday I shared that I’ve given myself the goal — or challenge — to write a post every day in December. This was kind of a lofty goal since it’s the holidays and also because I was at a three day swim meet with Number 4, 5 and 7 in Long Island, sharing a …Read More
On Tuesday night I shared how my marriage is really messed up, how I was feeling completely hopeless, and what happened to completely change my perspective.

I had a little reality check last night. If you’ve been around here for a long time, you may remember back to when I joined a weight loss challenge/competition-type thing at the gym. I was the heaviest I’d ever been, I was done having kids, I felt like doodoo, and I was ready to make …Read More
