I eat mostly intuitively. I move my body almost every day. And here’s a snapshot of said body. My BMI says I’m obese. My belly looks lumpy and it is the antithesis of flat. Agree to disagree but I have no intention of losing weight or even trying to change my shape. Because something deep…

Here’s the deal. I have been with the same man since I was 18. My friendships haven’t changed in as many years. The people I talk to outside of my “circle” are other sports related parents or co-worker friends. In no world have I had to cultivate a new relationship since social media debuted. I…

Sometimes things are hard. Sometimes hard things don’t care that it’s supposed to be the most wonderful time of the year.

But the amazing thing about concepts and the brain is that it's always making new connections to what we already know. I guess that…

Well if there’s one thing you can count on around here it’s that I’m not always meeting my goals which is how Thursday Thoughts turned itself today into Friday’s afterthought. It seems there are more things to do than hours in the day and that just never stops being true. Not only do I run…
