You need people like this

I have this friend, Jamie, and every morning he posts something positive on Facebook. Every single day…every single morning. Even when I get up before the sun to go to CrossFit, somehow there is always a post from him that I get to read as I sit in the parking lot waiting for someone to open the door.

She’s wearing white?!? Before Easter?!?

It’s just so nice outside that I felt like pulling out the more Springish clothes. So white pants, it is. Now, let’s see how long it is before I spill something on them. Another reason for the change in clothes is...

Slip, slip, slip sliding down the scale

Feb 17

That’s right. The pounds keep a dropping, and what is more important is that I’m feeling good. I’ve thrown myself into eating Paleo completely. Remember I wrote about it here. This includes eating grass-fed beef, pasture-raised pork and chickens and all kinds of veggies. My adventures in cooking have been really expanding since I signed up for both...
