Part of the reason I write this page every week is to remind myself of what I’m trying to do. Yeah, I know, Yoda said to either do, or do not – there is no try, but honestly, I’m human, not a Jedi Master, and I have to try. Because more often than not lately, …

(health/food/personal) A new week, and more food!
Posted on September 16, 2013
Happy Monday, folks! I think I’ve FINALLY got this cold on the run – I actually took Saturday off and RESTED. Well, I wrote, but I could do that from the couch. Sunday I felt so much better! Ate real food, did chores, and wrote. This is going to be a good food week. …
(health/personal) Back from vacation!
Posted on September 9, 2013
Yep, I was on vacation for the past week, which is why I didn’t post. I was actually planning on posting, but after Harper’s Retreat, I got sick. I think it was a combination of stress (running an event, even a successful one, is stressful) and the fact that allergies are killing me, and poor …
(health) Thoughts on stress
Posted on August 26, 2013
I’m under a lot of stress at the moment. I’ll be honest – it’s mostly self-inflicted. I’m autocratting (running, for those not familiar with SCA terms) a fairly large event Labor Day weekend called Harper’s Retreat, and the week before the event is always nerve-racking to me. There’s SO much that needs to be done, …
(health/eating) Revelations
Posted on August 12, 2013
Not the book from the Bible, but my own personal revelations as I continue to work on my eating and exercise habits. I’m discovering that left to my own devices, I’ll eat pretty healthy, but there are some major roadblocks I still fall into: 1. Preplanning I suck at this. Actually, the part I suck …
(health/personal) Yep, it’s Monday again.
Posted on August 5, 2013
I don’t know what it is this year, but lord, have my allergies been doing a number on me! I’m hoping that the healthy turn I’m taking with my life will keep them in line, but I don’t know. I even resorted to Benadryl last night, just so my nose would unclog enough to sleep. …
(health/personal) New week, new things to do
Posted on July 29, 2013
I lost a lot of last week, due to work stuff, and so my healthy lifestyle took a bit of a hit. However, this is a marathon, not a sprint, so I’m back up on the horse. We will NOT discuss this weekend, when I had Domino’s pizza (and not the gluten-free type either) two …
(health/personal) Healthy Mondays!
Posted on July 22, 2013
Yep, restarting the blog. I’m sorry I’ve let it slide, but I’ve found that there are some things that have to give, and this time, it was the blog. (And the housework, this past week. Seriously. I don’t even want to THINK about people coming over, because it’s that bad. I’m in CLEAN ALL THE …
(health/personal/writing) One week in!
Posted on June 6, 2013
Today is Day 7 of going completely gluten-free and mostly sugar-free. It’s been an interesting journey. Weighed in this morning at 277.8 lbs, so up a little, but that’s okay. It’s been hard, I won’t lie. Drank Coke on Saturday, had sushi with non-GF soy sauce on Tuesday, and an ice cream cone on …
(personal/health) Taking the day off – success!
Posted on June 2, 2013
Yesterday, I was not on the computer much. Hubby and I went with friends to my parents’ lake and spent the day eating good food, enjoying good company, and soaking in perfect lake water. It was AWESOME. Exactly what I needed. And what hubby needed too. Before that, my friends Carolyn and Beard …
