2018-10-11 World Mental Health Day

World mental health day was yesterday apparently. I missed it because I worked all freaking day while sick and tired. I had a lovely 4.5 hours of sleep because of congestion and probably anxiety about two Work calls I have today and maybe the caffeine I took at 6pm to make it through the evening.…
2018-10-10 When the Situation Calls For Chaos (or Poetry, Take Your Pick)

Strange Times Cats and cats getting along like republicans and democrats, yeah just like that / scratches appear across fingers crossed / keep your arms and legs inside the moving vehicle at all times / it was the worst of times, it was the worst of times / I’m afraid nobody will ever be nostalgic…
2018-10-09 One Heck of a Day

Today tried to take me down. Toward the end of the day I just threw my hands up and said, “you win, you can have it, whatever you want”. Who really knows what a day might want, what it might ask for or demand. I just know sometimes it’s not worth fighting because there’s always…
2018-10-08 Awareness.. 🌸💕🎀💕🌸 Time is A Gift

Welcome to the start of another week. It’s a great day to be alive! 💝 As I roll into another week I have to share a circumstance that has been on my mind a lot lately. This isn’t my story to tell but it affects me in a profound way. Other people’s struggles are tough…
2018-10-07 Sunday Status – So What Style

Steps.. 16K average per day. Killin’ it! ✅ Healthy Eating.. Last night I had a hot dog, bbq chips, and a healthy glass of wine for dinner and I don’t care who knows it. I spent the evening with my buddy C and we enjoyed some FOB tunes while we had dinner together. After that…
2018-10-06 Hell Yeah, That’s My Jam

I’ve seen some good concerts in my day. I’ve also been to some seriously crappy ones and some take-or-leave-it gigs. Last night was one of the better ones. My friend Leah and I took a little road trip to Lincoln to see Fall Out Boy at the arena downtown. It was a great time. It…
2018-10-05 Bandwagon’s Full, Please Catch Another

I’m nearing the end of this cardio set and I’ve spent almost the entire hour writing down (typing in) brilliant lines from random Fall Out Boy songs coming up in this morning’s Shuffle. Today it’s all FOB cuz I’m preparing myself for the concert tonight. It will be total immersion all day today and Hopefully…
2018-10-04 Wild Winds and Wandering Thoughts

Yesterday it was 90 degrees outside and this morning we woke to temps in the 40s. It’s not really a slow enough news day that we need to talk about the weather but wow! That’s significant. After dinner last night the kids and I watched as the winds picked up and my neighbors tree lost…
2018-10-03 Killer Day

Talk about the perfect storm yesterday. PMS, high pressure job interview, production issues. I was in the eye of that mess almost all day yesterday and by the time it was almost over I had such a killer headache, I felt like I’d been rolled over by a Mack Truck. I simply could not wind-down…
2018-10-01 High Anxiety Monday

How is it that, despite everything in my life right now being awesome, I still suffer from anxiety? It’s worse this week I think because I’m PMSing and I would love to reason with my brain that its fears are unfounded, but it’s not hearing my logic. I said, “Brain, we’ve done all sorts of…
2018-09-30 Sunday Status Last Chance

It’s the last day of September and my last chance to squeeze in a Sunday Status. And oh what a week/month I’ve had. For a new twist on an old idea, I thought I might look at stats for the week and month, just to see if I’m trending in the right direction. Sleep.. Probably…
2018-09-28 Serious Friday Feels

Everything I was worried about yesterday went great. Every thing that got done made me feel lighter and lighter. I made a space for my morning cardio which I did not think I was going to have time for. ✅ I got my lawn mowed. ✅ I had a difficult conversation with my boss. ✅…
