  • 2017-02-01 The Trapezoid

    I’m stuck in a place where I feel like I can’t move on. I can’t sit still, yet I can’t move. It’s maddening. I’ve got this logical brain, right? (it’s rhetorical but the answer is yes). Sometimes I see life like a flowchart on a piece of paper. You’re on a path and each time…

  • 2017-02-01 And the Winner is…

    A month of the year is gone already. In that time, I’ve been focussing on exercising more and, for those who are following along, now tracking the foods I am eating too. I think I have been somewhat successful with adding more activity to my days/weeks thus far but came to the conclusion yesterday that…

  • 2017-01-30 That Was Kind of a Big Deal

    I’ve done the blog thing for a while. I started my first blog late in 2010 because I met a guy and he told me he thought I should (yeah, that’s how it always starts.. with a guy). At the time, I was really apprehensive about putting my words out for the entire universe to…

  • 2017-01-29 I Should Have Stayed In Bed

    The tag line for this blog includes “unfiltered .. and emotionally raw”, and that’s what’s about to happen now. *Spoiler Alert* It’s pretty gross and also long. You have been warned. I’m back in bed now, after a terrible experience this morning at my exercise class. But first a little back story.. Rewind about 5…

  • 2017-01-28 I Dropped MyPlate

    The calorie tracking app. MyPlate was the second casualty in the fight for a spot on the Miss SugarCookie home screen. It was decidedly better than the first one that was cut (LoseIt), but not as good as the two that are left (MyNetDiary and MyFitnessPal). There were a couple of minor deficiencies, but the…

  • 2017-01-26 So Much to Say, So Much to Say

    …But nothing much is jumping out at me to focus on. Sometimes you just have to start and “wing-it”. My Twitter feed is full of people angry at the president. I just want to scream “I DONT CARE”. My Facebook feed is full of people’s pictures .. happy babies, kids, spouses, selfies. What am I…

  • 2017-01-25 Status Update.. Bridget Jones Style

    Sleep: 8 hours and 51 minutes. Missed it by “that” much. Exercise: Who has time for that? (JK, I did some strength training, jogged a mile, and logged 12K+ steps). Work: 8 hours from home. Not too shabby. Diet: Oatmeal and apples and, oh yeah, that binge on crescent rolls stuffed with chocolate chips to…

  • 2017-01-24 Of Cycles and Sleep

    I’ve been trying to do too much. Or at least it feels that way. Focus on work and kids and exercise and diet and reading and writing and family and.. and.. and.. And no wonder I feel so tired and overwhelmed. I just re-read Matt’s last email to me (which was from December) and in…
