    WOW –real deals for real people. I have been missing my husband Scotty lately all because he has been working super hard with his team at Aol. on this new product – called WOW –real deals for real people.

  • Power Workout

    Frost greeted me on my car windshield for the first time this season as I headed out the door this AM. And although I happen to be one of those people that like the chillier weather, I can’t say I like to see signs of it at 5AM. I had to find my car scraper…

  • Who’s that girl?

    I found this picture on my hard drive the other day. It was taken April 2009 — about a year after starting my journey. The reason I am sharing it is to show you that nothing happens overnight and making incremental changes really can make all the difference. For me, working regular fitness activities into…

  • Workout & Paleo Update

    Outside workout on a cold morning — you know it’s not as bad as it seems. It really does feel pretty good within a few minutes of starting the workout and by the time you are done, you have those chills that you get when you are all sweaty but it’s freezing outside. Oh the…

  • River Creek 5K Fun Run

    This morning I got up — enjoying that extra hour of sleep — and headed out for a small fun run 5K race in the River Creek Community to benefit Capital Hospice. It was in the 30s and the race course was hilly. My lungs killed and I found myself stopping quite a few times…

  • Ahh, Weekends

    I don’t think I have mentioned this before — I am running a small 5k race in River Creek with some of the Plumbline Ladies.  The race benefits Capital Hospice — as I have mentioned — races are a good way to give back and get exercise. There is no better combo than that! You…
