The power of a really cute bathing suit

In 30 days I will be 57 years old.. sheesh I remember when almost 60 was sooooo old.. Well not anymore folks. This gal does not feel old. Fairly decent/healthy living has helped, especially these last 10 years.. early on, perhaps not so much.. but hey young and carefree so what did it matter? AsContinue reading “The power of a really cute bathing suit”

Six pack – I struggle finishing one beer

What is fit? The dictionary says – in good health, especially because of regular physical exercise. And what is “good health”? A google search provided this answer… about health in general: “Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.” I found myself freshlyContinue reading “Six pack – I struggle finishing one beer”

Victoria is having a hard time keeping my secret

I am not weight obsessed. This journey that I’ve been traveling has evolved and changed and grown so many times.. Once a upon a time, that number was what lead me. I was driven to be skinny and reach the golden digits on that scale and all would be right in the world. It wasContinue reading “Victoria is having a hard time keeping my secret”

Through the Fog and the Mist

Driving I was filled with a sense of angst and uneasiness. I had been holding onto frustration, disappointment and some anger. Comparison is the thief of joy… we hear that phrase and we generally conclude that we are feeling less than, but sometimes the opposite is true. We expect things from others based on whatContinue reading “Through the Fog and the Mist”

The Evergreen Tree

Waking to the sound of the hummingbird buzzing outside my window. It is spring time and everything is green. The view from our wrap around porch always beckons me. The grass, the bushes, the trees, front and center the huge evergreen sits queen of the forest. A little chill in the air, I go insideContinue reading “The Evergreen Tree”

Through my lens

Hiking has become a huge passion of mine. I began hiking many years ago with my friend Cynthia who lives in Arizona. My hikes were basically limited to the time I spent there but it became a regular part of my visits. I was hooked, the juxtaposition of the bustling city on one side andContinue reading “Through my lens”

Your personal brand

So during the last 2 years while work was scarce I signed up for many online seminars and training sessions that were available to me free of charge. They offered certifications and training in business practices, some specialized to my field, some in general. Lately there seems to be a focus on personal well beingContinue reading “Your personal brand”

You should…

It’s the last day of February and I haven’t posted a blog all month. I have multiple drafts of different thoughts sitting here unpublished.. why – because someone said “you should”… Those words tend take the joy out of things for me. When I hear them I tend to pull back rather than push forward.Continue reading “You should…”

No resolutions, no regrets

Good morning. January 31 – already.. That went by very quickly. I sat on day one thinking about what is most important and made a bullet point list of items. I did not set resolutions but rather considered my life and what it is that I would like to have more of as part ofContinue reading “No resolutions, no regrets”

A Year without resolutions – week 1

As January 1st approached I had no intention of setting any sort of resolutions. I haven’t set one in years. But then the strangest thing happened… My January 1 became a walking resolution… days earlier I had seen that Adriene was doing her month long daily Yoga challenge starting in the New Year and IContinue reading “A Year without resolutions – week 1”
