While I hate to admit it, and against my better judgement, I have succumbed to the pressure of my friends to join the app dating world. It's not that I don't think that there are great guys available on those types of resources, but so much of me wants to be able to find a … Continue reading “What Did You Say?”

Mistakes are OK
Whether it is a new diet, work out routine, a relationship, or something as serious as dealing with an addiction, take comfort in the fact that you will mess up. This probably sounds strange to you. Why would anyone be glad about messing up on a path to improvement, healing, or personal growth? The reason … Continue reading Mistakes are OK
“Be Remembered for Your Hugs”
As I was getting ready for work today, I turned on CNN. I'm not typically super interested in what is going on in the world; however, I do recognize that the best way to stay relevant is to not bury your head in the sand and pretend the world doesn't have problems around you. I … Continue reading “Be Remembered for Your Hugs”
“When the Motivated Get Demotivated”
It happens to the best of us. Many people have asked what makes me so motivated. There are many reasons - like recovering my health and achieving a new level of fitness. I want to plan for my financial life, and take steps to make progress on my career along with some major transitions in the … Continue reading “When the Motivated Get Demotivated”
“Trivial Pursuit”
You've probably played the game with family or friends. A terrible journey through categories of questions that are far too hard for most normal people. I was talking to a friend of mine that was discussing how badly he needed something. Before I get rolling on my thoughts today, let me just say that I … Continue reading “Trivial Pursuit”
“Prioritize Tomorrow By Prioritizing Today”
You almost had me today, Target. If you know anything about me, you'd know just how unfortunate it is that even Target can still trick me into spending money on things that I don't need. In the past, I have had the worst impulse buying habits. You know that classic tale of walking into a … Continue reading “Prioritize Tomorrow By Prioritizing Today”
“Those that are mothers and those who mother”
I'll be candid - I have not always had the best relationship with my mother. We have our highs and we have our lows. A large part of my issues with her are actually my own. Coming to terms with forgiveness over a few things is something that I am dealing with in this wellness … Continue reading “Those that are mothers and those who mother”
“The Only One that Can Change Your Situation is You”
I heard a story today about a 24 year old single father of two. He's sitting on $30,000 in debt (if I remember correctly), and makes $13 an hour. He might as well have a mountain to climb. While to many this might sound like a horror story to most, there is definitely a silver … Continue reading “The Only One that Can Change Your Situation is You”
“Spread the Love Around”
I have always been a big fan of musicals. I suppose if I could have done everything differently I might have tried to pursue a career on the stage. That's not really the point of this entry. "Spread the Love Around" is the finale song from the musical, Sister Act (based on the 90s movie). … Continue reading “Spread the Love Around”
“Because Drunk Texts are Always a Good Idea”
Of course that is not true. They are quite possibly the worst idea ever. Ever. I decided to let a little loose last night because a good friend of mine wanted to celebrate a promotion at work. Sure. I'm game. I don't go out much, so it seemed like a great idea. We had fun, … Continue reading “Because Drunk Texts are Always a Good Idea”
