Maybe, I am too impatient, or I need to move somewhere warmer, but I am in need of spring. I’ve lost count of which winter relapse we are in or which fool’s spring (welcome to Indiana). I need green grass, leaves on trees, slightly warmer temperatures, sunshine, and flowers to bloom. I need spring. Don’tContinue reading “In Need of Spring”

Going the Distance
I set a goal last year, prior to having the baby, in the winter of 2020 that I would like to run a 5k in 2021. That was a goal. Little did I know that having the baby, having major complications would set my health and body back by months and months. Working out, running,Continue reading “Going the Distance”
What is Love
I am not sure what you think of when you hear the word “love”. That is a pretty heavy word that evokes a lot of thought and emotion.

I struggle to set boundaries or to say “no” or stand up for myself at times. I have gotten better but it is a work inContinue reading “New Year, New Boundaries”

Recently, we took a trip out West to Arizona. I am used to writing about trips out East and trips that include our kids (this was adults only). But out West was phenomenal. I have been to New Mexico, Oregon, and California numerous times, but this was my first time to Las Vegas (which weContinue reading “Trip Out West”
Swimsuit Weather
