I can’t help myself, I have to blurt it out…. I RAN 4 MILES TODAY! Me? **looking from side to side** *pointing finger to self* That’s right, ME and I have PROOF…

Now I did walk twice for about a total of a minute.

*sigh* Why oh why does something always seem to go haywire when I just start to get ahead? Seriously? A few days ago I mentioned getting hit by a hacker. To combat, I upgraded my Wordpress installation hopefully increasing my security a bit and then, BANG! now I don’t get email notifications when [...]

phew What a day! My Sensational Sunday almost didn’t happen. Did you ever have a slow morning? A morning where you have to make that conscious decision to get up and get moving or you’re going to lose the day?
That’s what we had today.

I did, I really did it! Even with the tire place taking twice as long as they said they would I completed all of my Sensational Sunday tasks. The down fall, now I have no energy to post. Let’s just say it was a GREAT day on all fronts, food, activity, family, I even got [...]

Good Morning! What a weekend!
Yesterday was a super busy day yet I didn’t get anything accomplished. Don’t you hate that? We had a morning birthday party, then I took a nap with the toddler (I haven’t been sleeping well at night so I’m taking sleep when I can), the toddler had his 3 year [...]

I don’t like to waste food but we had pizza leftover from the babysitter last night and it’s been calling me all morning. I took a look at it, thought about how crappy I feel becuase I ate too much yesterday and then said,
"NOPE! Totally NOT worth it!! Time to get back on track, [...]

It’s been awhile since I posted a Sensational Sunday and even though this weekend wasn’t my best on the food front I still like to recognize good days when I have them.
My weekend was jam packed! The husband and I got a movie in Friday night while the toddler hung out with [...]

I really wish I could report another Sensational Sunday but I’ve been really down in the dumps all day. I tried so hard to get motivated. I blasted happy music, I cooked with the toddler even experimented in the kitchen (I almost nailed the homemade whole wheat pizza dough) but I couldn’t [...]

It’s been awhile since I recapped a Sensational Sunday, hasn’t it?  I have some new readers so I’ll quote my original post…

I think motivation is contagious and I think we can start a movement, a movement to begin our weeks, every week, with a Sensational Sunday. If we take just a [...]

The title pretty much sums it up.
The day started with a bit of sauce making.  Notice my little chef in training and his FABULOUS play dough meat balls! It way my way of keeping his eager hands out of the raw meat. Worked like a charm! We even “baked” his [...]

Yes, yes, yes, I gained.  I knew I did. It wasn’t a surprise. However, I am NOT letting it get out of hand.  I took control today and I feel GREAT!
So great actually I’m going to cut this short.  My Sensational Sunday was jam packed with cooking turkey soup, going [...]

UGH!
I am sitting here with that gross overstuffed feeling.  Why? Why? Why am I doing this to myself?  I’ve been totally out of control on the eating front since Thursday.  Whoever told me to throw away the Girl Scout cookies was TOTALLY right.
I made a commitment to stay true to the [...]

This sensational Sunday started a bit groggy.  Last night I went to a haunted farm with a friend and her daughter.  We didn’t get back until well after 1AM and, of course, the toddler was up bright eyed and busy tailed at 7AM. I made him breakfast and snapped out of it [...]
