I am the first to admit that a big fault of mine is allowing myself to get all wrapped up in the day-to-day while pushing less interesting tasks to the side. I am terrible about staying on top of things that just don’t interest me. I will put them off and procrastinate like a champion. [...]

Reactions

And the pause is critical. It can provide a better view of the situation at [...]

August 30, 2011 { 30 comments }I am far from perfect. There are many things that I need to work on in life. I will spare you from the laundry list for now (we’re all a work in progress, right?) but one I want to touch on today is stressing less. Or more specifically – stressing smarter. This kind of covers [...]

The idea is that you link back to seven old posts that deserve to be remembered and then tag five other bloggers to take on the challenge. I got tagged by Jen at This Runner’s Trials.

Part two of my weekend was equally as fantastic and involved an Italian dinner, going to see Bridesmaids, teaching yoga, getting an [...]

Sunsets
May 26, 2011 { 25 comments }My favorite time of day during our vacation in Jamaica was sunset.
