I can’t put it off any longer. It’s imminent. I must find a way to overcome my yoga addiction and get back on the road to start building my base for Marine Corps Marathon training. My 3-4 mile runs here and there are not cutting it to prepare me for the training cycle that starts [...]

Down Dog Tired
May 16, 2010 { 0 comments }A little over 24 hours later – including 4.5 hours of yoga – and I’m back. I survived yoga bootcamp and even went back for more today. Yoga bootcamp was an awesome experience – as expected. There were 13 of us in the class. Celeste and Tanner lined us up in one long line and [...]

At Our Own Pace
May 15, 2010 { 0 comments }Happy weekend! We’re hanging out in Charlotte this weekend. It’s so nice to relax and go at our own pace. I taught BodyPump this morning and am heading to Y2 yoga in a bit for a three-hour yoga bootcamp. I’m getting nervous. I did one a couple of months ago and it was very challenging. [...]

Sleep is Good
May 11, 2010 { 0 comments }After NINE solid hours of sleep last night I feel like a completely new person. I had reached the point of exhaustion and a good night’s sleep was exactly what I needed. My energy levels were much higher today and the on and off headache I’ve had for the last five days finally went away. [...]

Friday Already?
May 7, 2010 { 0 comments }How is it already Friday afternoon? This week has flown by – busy, busy, busy! We’ve been working like crazy on the house trying to get unpacked and establish a small degree of order before our friends Cristen and Graham arrived Friday. We planned this visit months ago and it just happened to end up [...]

Worth the Work
May 5, 2010 { 3 comments }So maybe it wasn’t the best idea to launch a new blog in the middle of closing on a house and moving. I’m sorry that I haven’t been able to get daily updates in but I feel like I’ve been working nonstop on the house. I’ve set my alarm early every day this week to [...]

Lowcountry Living
May 3, 2010 { 1 comment }I spent this weekend in Charleston, South Carolina for my friend Michelle’s bachelorette party. Brandon and I lived in Charleston for a year after college and were married there so it holds a very special place in my heart. We had a fun girl’s weekend. I wanted to update the blog yesterday but the wireless [...]

A Mid-Move Update
April 30, 2010 { 6 comments }***RSS Readers – Sorry Wordpress went down midway through posting this. Sorry if the post did not show correctly in your reader. I’m so sorry I have been MIA the last couple days but my life has looked a little something like this. With just a little drama (nothing too terrible) we closed on our [...]

Moving Stress
April 28, 2010 { 1 comment }This post is going to be super quick. There is way too much going on right now! Today was the weirdest day I’ve had in a long time. All day I was forgetting things and mixing things up. I’m hoping I can blame it on stress. I started the day at Y2 for a hot [...]

Busy Bee
April 27, 2010 { 2 comments }Well, yoga was a bit of a disappointment Sunday evening. My favorite instructor Suzanne ended up needing a sub at the last minute. I have to admit that I was a bit upset when I found out she wasn’t there but as a group ex instructor I know how much it stinks to be a [...]

Bulk Madness
April 25, 2010 { 0 comments }Happy weekend! I woke up starving Saturday morning. You will all be so proud…I mixed up breakfast a bit this weekend (no oats!). Toasted 12-grain English muffin, almond butter and Crofter’s with cantaloupe and black coffee on the side. I thought about going to yoga or running yesterday morning but I really wasn’t feeling it.

Soda is bad, Eddie is good
April 22, 2010 { 7 comments }Hope everyone had a fabulous Wednesday. We’re on the downhill slope to the weekend! In case you’re wondering, my late night snack Tuesday ended up being a mug of hot chocolate with marshmallows. It was rainy and cool last night and the hot chocolate totally hit the spot. I started my morning out with banana [...]

Return of the Veggies
April 21, 2010 { 1 comment }Today started off much like the last few days – with a bowl of apple cinnamon oats (recipe posted here). While I do eat oatmeal most mornings, I usually switch up my mix more often than I have lately. Sorry if I’m boring you guys but I had half of an apple in the fridge [...]

Making the Most of It
April 20, 2010 { 12 comments }We had grand plans of packing yesterday afternoon but Brandon ended up at the Y and I decided to go to a hot yoga class at Y2. I have to be honest, I really wasn’t feeling it…at all…but I always go on Sunday afternoons when we’re in town and am pretty set in my routines. [...]
