One of the things I dislike about my family is that they seem to rarely think of anyone other than themselves. One of the things I admire about my family is that they do things for themselves that make them feel good about themselves.
Believe me, my family is not sitting at home wondering how to [...]

Last night, I spent an hour acquainting myself with a trapeze, rope, & ribbons. I was unable to climb the rope. However, I did rather well on the trapeze & with the ribbons! :-D
Since I was a very little girl, I have wanted to learn how to perform aerialist work. I used to wonder how I [...]

I have a dress I bought years ago that I’ve never worn. I love it. But, it never fit quite right when I bought it, & then… well, after I gained one hundred pounds there was no way I could wear it.
So, it sat in my basement until late last year when I pulled out all my old [...]

Lately, when I’ve looked in the mirror, I have liked what I see. This has made it difficult for me to stick to my exercise & diet plans. And, although I think self-loathing is NEVER good! I do think it is helpful to remind ourselves that what our mind can tell us is “good enough” sometimes still [...]

Since committing to working out daily, I’ve managed to associate an exercise with each day. I had to fuddle over the weekend:
My plan was to walk after watching a movie with friends, but the movie lasted much longer than I expected. So, instead, I walked twice on Sunday.

Thankfully, my Morrissey moment has passed Sometimes, I think, it is good to acknowledge our inner whiney child. Other times, it is good to kick its a**.
As for my Win a Trip to Paris Challenge — you know, the one where my hubby will take me to Paris next Christmas if I weigh 200 [...]

So, I made it through Halloween! How did everyone else do? Do you have a small bowl of candy still tempting you, too? What happened to all the trick-or-treaters?!?! When I was a kid, we used to flood the neighborhood. Now, everyone goes somewhere “safe” (probably a good idea) & leaves me with extra candy [...]

I shared my end of the year goal (see below post) with my husband over the weekend. He was encouraging, & asked if there was anything he could do to reward me if I reached my goal.
After thinking about it for a scant few seconds, I asked if he would be willing to go to [...]
