The last six years of my life have been a whirlwind on so many levels when it’s come to emotional, physical and employment. Most of those six years have been out of my control and my reactions have been immediate responses to circumstances. Nothing was really planned the way that I would have normally planned [...]

These past two days have flown by. I am doing a freelance job and had some “friend” business to deal with. I don’t think I really “worked out” as in a full-blown workout BUT… I did work on my planks this weekend.

I’m working my way up to holding it for 30 seconds… got up to [...]

Hello folks! Yesterday was a day of ‘rest’ for me. Kickboxing sure kicked my arse, that’s for sure! Actually, it wasn’t TOO bad. I ached but it wasn’t so bad. I offered to babysit my friends kids in the afternoon and ended up having to go to my storage unit afterwards, to find some stuff [...]
