First of all…

by Elizabeth on May 18, 2013

how is my baby 18 months today??? Not cool. Don’t even talk to me about him turning two, going to kindergarten, his first date, or going off to college. We won’t be friends for very much longer. I told him today he’s not allowed to get any older! I’m glad we’re on the same page now.

We had a pretty low key Friday. I ran and finished my third week of Crossfit! Still loving it but I’ll refrain from going into a thousand details so you don’t think I’ve joined the cult (even though I’m slightly addicted.) Random but every day I ran this week I got attacked in the exact same spot by what I swear is a killer bird. He flies at my head and it scares the living daylights out of me every time! I must be quite the spectacle for people driving by seeing me swatting away a bird.

Dinner was tilapia, vegetables, and pasta (this is an old picture so use your imagination and pretend that sweet potato looks like pasta.)

DESSERT was this slice of heaven. Joe surprised me with FOUR pieces of cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory!!! I’m not the only one with moderation problems, clearly ;-) Maybe he expected me to share. Ha yeah right, he knows me better than that!

I’ve had a few questions concerning the types of supplements/vitamins I have experimented with in the past so I figured I’d do a post on it. These are some things that have really helped me; please talk to your health care provider to see if they may be beneficial to you also! I take a [...]

My friend, the hero.

May 10, 2013

I remember a lot of things about being in inpatient treatment very clearly. I remember exactly how it looked- the pictures on the walls, the way the light would shine through the windows in the afternoons, the meal plan sheets we filled out. I remember the way it smelled- the smell of the buildings, the [...]

Powerade, soup, and wheat thins

Wednesday night was rough… I woke up at 11:30 to a really bad stomach virus. I reached for my phone to text my running partners that 4:45 was not an option for me (priorities people) and there was already a text from one of the other girls saying she fell down the stairs… Clearly yesterday’s [...]
