  • What Are You Thankful For?

    I was nominated by my friend Marcia to share 3 things I’m thankful for daily for the next 5 days. Away I go… 1. I’m thankful for my husband – who is un-falteringly kind, supportive and my biggest cheerleader. 2. I’m thankful for my health. Having seen first hand what a serious illness can do…

  • Want to Lift Your Mood? Keep Learning

    I’ve been really busy with the new gig which is a double edged sword. I’m sure things will settle down and I will get into a routine once again, especially with the kiddos about to head back to school week after next. It’s definitely true that learning new things keeps your brain sharp and can lighten…

    I came across a blog post by one of my CrossFit friends who runs Craic in MA – and it enhanced a previous blog post I wrote last week – how not judging others is one of the hardest behaviors for so many of us to do. Think about all the ways you judge things in the course of a…

    I’ve been boxing for a while now and am really getting into it. I can see more definition and I am leaning out. And I am not having any nagging shoulder impingement issues either. A lot of it has to do with not lifting heavy shit over my head which is Ok with me.  I love…

  • Depression: Who Are You To Judge?

    As I spent time yesterday reading about Robin Williams, it became clear how judgmental some people insist on being.  Who are we to judge someone else’s actions? We were not in his shoes at that moment or the ones that led up to it. All I can imagine is the immense pain he must have…

  • Depression: An Inner Struggle

    I still have Robin Williams on my mind. Reports say that he had been getting treatment for his depression but that it was too far gone to do any good. I’m not sure I am willing to believe that help at any point is not helpful. The entire situation is tragic and hurts. We hurt…
