Hey there!

This stream of consciousness is intended to be an unfiltered account of my journey to fight my way to a healthier, happier life. One day at a time, one step at a time, one organically-grown-emotionally-raw blog post at a time…

  • 2017-06-13 On Being Grateful

    When I was out in Austin two short months ago my friend Rebecca had a Mother’s day celebration and invited all their friends. Mother’s day was just an excuse, it was a good time to get together and celebrate.. life. They have a lot of great friends. One of her close friends is Holly and…

  • 2017-06-11 Sunday Stats and Things Like That

    I’ve been so focussed on the big things and the big picture and big changes that I have not been keeping up on my day to day/week to week analysis. It’s really about time to start digging back into the details and when it comes to details, stats (and things like that) are where it’s…

  • 2017-06-09 The Human Connection

    It’s Friday afternoon and I’m just finishing up my work day. I was able to get to most of the things I intended to get to today including sending out a communication to all my customers letting them know that I am leaving the company and my last day is the 22nd of June. Five…

  • 2017-06-08 On Books and Reading

    I’ve started reading a new book. Something that I picked up in Denver from Lance. It’s called “Love and Garbage” and was written by Ivan Klima. I cracked it open last Sunday when I took the kids to the pool and am really not that far into it, but already I am reminded how much…

  • 2017-06-07 The Air Hockey Puck

    The days seem to be going by faster now. Something about this lighter feeling in me causing a gliding sensation like I’m that air hockey puck and each inch I travel there’s a burst of air below me making the ride easier. I feel like I can travel farther, faster, and there’s nothing left in…

  • 2017-06-03 The Sleep Success

    It’s a beautiful morning and it’s going to be a glorious day. It’s Saturday and I woke up to 66 degrees of easy breezy sunshine. I decided to get a bit of a workout in before the kids wake up and will prolly also try to squeeze a Jazzercise dance Mixx set too. Lunch with…

  • 2017-06-02 T-Minus 3 Weeks

    In three short weeks, I will be done working. In three short weeks I will be waking up on a Friday, for the longest weekend of my life. In three weeks, I’m gonna have to figure out what to do with my time. That’s both awesome and scary at the same time. People have asked…

  • 2017-06-01 Waking up Wonderful

    Have you ever woke up feeling refreshed and happy? This morning I did, and it feels amazing. Yesterday was a rough one for sure, but I made it home and the kids tucked me in about 9:30 PM. (When I go to sleep before them, that’s what we do.) I woke up around 5:30 AM…

  • 2017-05-31 Decisions, Decisions

    Good Decision – Going to Denver for the holiday weekend. Bad Decision – Not checking the weather and packing the wrong clothes. Good Decision – Walking everywhere downtown. Bad Decision – Buying at $10 salad and a fancy salad place. Good Decision – Bringing the bike with me. Bad Decision – Not riding it. 😔…

  • 2017-05-30 Denver – Make it Count

    This has been a pretty quick trip and today is my last day so I need to make it count. I’ve already been rocking and rolling on work issues this morning and I should be able to get a ton of stuff done. It’s amazing what an entire day free from interruptions and the burden…

  • 2017-05-29 Denver – Downtown Rooftop Patio is What is Up

    Sometimes I wish I posted pics with my blog so folks could see what I see. A picture is worth a thousand words and I could just post a bunch of pictures and never need to write again. However, that would defeat my purpose. I’m on the 3rd floor patio of Lance’s apartment building and…

  • 2017-05-29 I’m so in Denver Right Now

    I occurred to me when I woke up this morning that it’s been a few days since I wrote anything. Well, in truth, it occurred to me yesterday when I was driving across Nebraska, but I was driving, so I could not really do anything about it at the time. Four days ago I quit…
