A Well-Balanced Meal? I Don’t Think So…
I was driving home this morning and listening to the radio. A McDonald’s commercial came on talking about updates to the Happy Meal. The Happy Meal will now include fries AND apple slices for a ‘well balanced meal’. Isn’t that fabulous!! Now come on — if you are going to sell it, don’t add in the…

A Mini-Pain-Miracle Ball – The Lacrosse Ball
Today has been busy so I am just getting to my blog now — at almost 7p at night. Not my normal routine that’s for sure — I want to make sure to talk about rolling out your sore muscles and the main tool I use. I am sore, often. Crossfit is known for that…

Yesterday, I went to the dentist and had to get a crown. Yuck — it’s painful and sensitive. Not my idea of fun but it had to be done! So I’m a bit cranky as I deal with how freakin uncomfortable it is. Lately I have had a very negative attitude about a lot of…

Koyaanisqatsi- Life out of Balance
For some reason, Sunday nights I can’t sleep. My mind won’t shut off and i toss and turn. As you can imagine that makes for a rough wake up. But as you also can imagine, I get up anyway. I’m tired! I spent the better part of yesterday going through everything, and i mean, EVERYTHING,…
