  • Get It Done!

    Love this: I have often heard discussed, that when it is time to go, you don’t remember your life in months or years, but instead you remember only moment’s, evens magical seconds, the snap shots and stills that have set the scenes of your life. So lovely people, who ride along side, make sure you are creating…

  • Cancer – Go the F Away!

    Something about reading about Andy Whitfield and his battle with cancer again brought up some serious emotions yesterday. I feel so much empathy towards his wife and having to go on day after day having lost the love of her life at such a young age. Although Scott is thriving, I had to grasp the…

  • CrossFit Kids is the Way!

    Coached a great group of athletes this AM as I covered for Coach Nick at 6A.  Knowing you are going to coach a fun group of people helps alot in getting your butt up and out the door.  I also coached last night — totally different feel with the evening people but still just as…

  • A Case of Mommy Guilt

    This someecard cracks me up but yet is so true. I’m sure that many of the Moms out there can totally relate — there are so many times that I feel like I am not doing my job as a Mom, not living up to the expectations I have for what my role should be.…
