January Roundup
Well 2012 so far has treated me well. I’m still doing Insanity, on track to finish it this month! I’m loving it, actually. The challenge is pushing me and I love feeling my body tone up from all the work I’m doing. I am beginning to believe that the harder the workouts are the more…

Fake it ’til you make it
Most people have heard this phrase. It could be in relation to just about anything, too. I have a problem with this “advice”: it doesn’t work for me. I faked being happy for a very long time, probably longer than I even know. I knew something was wrong but just ignored it and hoped that…

2011 Finale
Happy New Year’s Eve! I love this time of year and looking forward to what the next year will bring. I’m making a huge pot of spaghetti for tonight, the sauce has been on since this morning and is in the slow cooker bubbling away. Spaghetti is one of my favourite foods, but only if…
