Every once in a long while, I have a really good week. Fortunately, this week was one of those weeks. Unfortunately, I have True Confessions this week, LOL. So. What to do? Do I get really nitpicky about my could-have-been-better choices this week? Or do I confess what went right for me this week. How [...]
Ah yes, here we are again. Another Tuesday, another chance to air our grievances of the past week. And friends, I have a few. I haven’t worked out since last Friday Thursday Wednesday. REALLY?

Psssst…can I tell you a secret? I’m not a big fan of working out. (ducks the rotten tomatoes) I’ve never really been a big fan of working out. I know that I have to. And I know that it’s good for me. But I don’t usually get that sense that endorphins are rushing through my body [...]

It takes 21 days to form new habits. Goodness knows I need to work on creating some new habits that I’ll stick with. I’m just as good as anyone else at declaring that I’m going to do something, then doing it for a little while, and then slowly petering out. As we all know, this [...]
