When I was in college I dated a guy for a few months. It was a pretty volatile relationship, on again off again. To make it harder we worked together and hung in the same circle of friends.  He was such a tragic person, a truly unhappy being. One of those people who self destructed [...]

“are you lying?” you looked at me and said “no I swear” you looked right into my eyes these eyes that love you and you lied.

Nature’s first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf’s a flower; But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf. So Eden sank to grief, So dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay. ~Robert Frost All around Denver the leaves are forming on the trees.  The cherry blossoms [...]

I realized today that I am old…because?…I am wearing knee highs… When I was little I remember thinking that my parents were so boring and old; how they dressed, what they were interested in, etc.  I remember leaving the room when they would turn on the evening news- what a bore! I remember making fun [...]

I could just say my main goal is to lose at least 20 pounds, but that is easier said than done. What I really want is for a lot of little things to happen as a result of losing 5 lbs here and 10 lbs there.  So here is a list of what I would [...]

It seems like every Monday morning, I wake up and say to myself “Today is the Day!”  Meaning that today is the day that I stop breaking all my own rules and be good to myself.  I lay there in bed and think of all the things I need to do in order to be [...]

In keeping with a spring theme, I planted our vegetable garden today! We started growing about a month ago  indoors. The only problem was; we had a bazillion plants in our dining room. It was like a greenhouse in there. I was glad to finally get them outside.  Hopefully the little seedlings will survive in [...]

As I sat for the last few months, nesting into our new house, our new life…I sort-of forgot about some things.  I guess I subconsciously pushed some things aside that I used to  love doing…and maybe I thought I didn’t have time for them anymore? sigh…I don’t know… I honestly didn’t even think about it [...]

Sigh, Chris finally talked me into going rafting with him.  His dad and some of his dads friends came for a visit and Chris wanted to show them a good time.  It was fathers day weekend, what could go wrong, right?  I figured if they can do it so can I. (here are the pictures) [...]

Remember that a**hole that I worked with that asked me if I was pregnant to which I replied NO FUC*ER I’M JUST FAT? He did it again! This time I had witnesses…actually a room full of my friends (thank god) who knew about the first time this happened to me..  There I was, sitting at [...]

Day 5 142lbs Holy Heck is it hard not to snack while I’m at work!  The water trick isn’t working today and all I want is chocolate! Grrr.  I was pretty good this weekend, (Day 4) I drank a whole lot of sparkling water and ate my vegetable soup. I also made a fabulous guacamole [...]

Day 3 142lbs Well at least I am seeing a little bit of weight loss and its only been two days.  That is always a good thing.  My  goal  is to lose 20 lbs, so this is only the tip of the iceberg, the fat fat iceberg that is me… So it’s Saturday, 3 in [...]

Day 2 143LBS It was really hard for me to get up this morning for some reason!  I was dragging.  It was such a nice morning though and so I walked Cody for a little bit longer than I usually do.  I wish I was a morning person, but I am reeeally really not.  In [...]

Day 1 145lbs Yes, it is true…I have started another cleanse.  The Quantum Wellness Cleanse to be exact. Starting today and for the next 21 days I will be cutting out 5 things: Alcohol Animal Products Caffeine Gluten Sugar So far it has been pretty uneventful, aside from the insane twitching in my left eye [...]

It is really funny actually, it’s all written in Izzy’s character.  While I was reading I could totally hear Izzy’s voice narrating in my head :) heeee hee. Check it out here Geez I’m gonna be [...]

I actually had this conversation with someone at work last night: Him: “…what’s going on right here“…making a rounding motion with his hands over his belly and pointing at mine Me: thinking I had spilled something on my shirt I looked down at it to find nothing “what?” Him: “You been eatin’ watermelon seeds?” Me: [...]

Wow, has it really been ten years already that the Columbine High School shootings happened? Today marks the anniversary of the tragedy, and that means all of Colorado is in mourning. Ten years ago; I had been living in Aurora, CO only a little over a year at the time, even still Colorado felt like [...]

Okay so about a month ago I started hearing everyone talk about twitter.  Twitter on Good Morning America, twitter on David Letterman, twitter at the gas station…I started to wonder what the hype was all about?  Now I have had my twitter account since ’07 but I think I had only logged on about 6 [...]

I just finished my taxes…why do I procrastinate all the time? Its friggin April 14th at 9:30PM! I heard something on Good Morning America the other day and they said that 20% of us are chronic procrastinators. Like its a disease or something.  Well, more men than women are procrastinators so maybe that is true..ha [...]
