Okay, shrinkers! We are in the home stretch of this weight loss challenge. We only have one week left. How has it been going for you? Have you been losing some major pounds? I think I told you before that I am losing more inches than pounds, but I’m okay with that. Have you been […]

We have this little rhyme that we learn on the first day of preschool. This is me from head to toe. I have two eyes and a little nose. I can wiggle my ears and stamp my feet. From head to toe, I’m really neat. This is me! That can be the simplest or most […]

Every day, there are big things going on all around us. At least we let ourselves believe they are big things. There’s that person at work who’s not pulling their share of the weight.

Tis the season to be exhausted! It happens to me every year. I find myself going in 12 different directions and never getting to sleep at a decent hour. If I am in bed by midnight, I feel like I have really accomplished something and I get up at 5:30. I wake up tired and […]
