My First Peachtree Road Race

- July 07, 2018

PRR Health and Fitness Expo Start line How do I describe being apart of the largest 10K race in the world in one word? FABULOUS! To date the largest race I've ever done was the Miami Marathon, which had about 25,000 people registered. That race alone was overwhelming with so many people so I couldn't even imagine what 60,000 racers looked like. And being new to the city of Atlanta I wasn't even sure who, what, where and how it all worked. The logistics of just getting to the start line seemed overwhelming. And something I'm learning about myself recently is that I get major anxiety when I'm in situations that I'm unfamiliar with. I need to know the ins and outs of everything before I start to feel remotely comfortable. Which is why I haven't ventured out much into the Atlanta metro area. Start Line So when I learned that the best way to get to the race was to take the MARTA (train) I was all the way out of my comfort zone. I've taken ...

Eating Right....

- February 06, 2011

So I found that eating right can be so difficult. Which shouldn't be so surprising because if it was easy everyone would be doing it. But you'd think the food companies would want us all to eat right and live long prosperous lives instead of manufacturing a bunch of food with no nutritional value and potentially harmful additives.

I couldn't help but share a little tidbit about this snack. I was at a meeting on Friday at work where we were given lunch. I opened my lunch box and found a bag of Doritos in there to my horror. I wanted to trade them for something else and found an abandoned bag of Kettle Chips. So I flipped it over and read the ingredient list. There was three things listed. Potato, vegetable oil and sea salt. I flipped over the bag of Dorit...

It's the most wonderful time of the year!

- December 10, 2018

I am a self proclaimed Christmas Freak! Yes I am LOL. And I'm not ashamed. Some years are better than others in my mania. But since I didn't get to decorate my house for Christmas last year because of the move I may have overcompensated this year. Much to my husband's chagrin. In his words it looks like Christmas threw up in my house. But really it's not THAT bad. Pink and Green Tree- 2016 I've had my fall decorations up since the end of August so I was ready to move on. But I didn't want to hide them away altogether so I moved them to the front sitting room. Which I'll probably leave there until the holiday season is over. I wanted to continue with the Farmhouse scheme and after doing a survey of all my Christmas stuff I've collected over the years it looked like I would be having to getting a lot of new stuff. The year before my tree was pink and green and I was sure that I was going to continue that theme for years to come. So a...
