A few years ago, I was introduced to BeachBody by my friend, Kristen. I think I started out by buying Shakeology through her, then fell off the wagon, then got restarted, and then finally got hooked on it enough to drink a shake daily. I truly enjoyed the shake and looked forward to drinking it,… Continue reading The Second Ultimate Reset with Coach Kristen
There’s been a nonstop busyness in my life lately and it doesn’t bode well for writing. I sit down and notice there’s an email that needs an immediate response. I sit down to write another time, and there’s a friend who needs help via text. I sit down and the quote from a contractor I’ve… Continue reading Top 5 for Friday, July 29, 2016
A few months ago, I was looking for a unique Christmas gift for some neighbors of mine who are very good friends. They’re not the kind of neighbors you make a batch of cookies, Snickerdoodles, Peanut Blossoms, and Magic Bars, put them on a plastic covered paper plate with a bow that won’t stay on… Continue reading Once Upon a Wine
I’ve been to many chiropractors before but none have the same system as Dr. Michael Berry of La Costa Chiropractic. When I walk into Dr. Berry’s office, I am greeted like an old friend. Diane not only remembers my name (gasp, in this day and age?) but even though she hasn’t seen me in a… Continue reading Pain, Pain Go Away, Don’t Come Back Another Day
I shouldn’t be complaining but here I go: my back hurts like hell. I have been taking megadoses of ibuprofen for quite a few days. Yes, I know the side effects, and yes, I also know that even though the medication is not really improving the situation much, it does take the edge off. Without… Continue reading Back to Back Pain
I love my CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) so much that I need to tell you all about it. I realize it’s not open to everyone in the US, but as long as you’re located in California, there is a chance that Farm Fresh to You is available in your area. You can check here to… Continue reading Community Supported Agriculture Version 2.0
Maybe it’s a mid-life crisis (if I plan on being really, really old when I die) or maybe it’s because my kids have gotten older and don’t need me as much, but whatever the reason, I feel aimless, useless and stagnant. These unpleasant feelings have me searching for the meaning behind why I was put… Continue reading My Sweet Life With a Little Help From Sugar
Another birthday passed last month. I was depressed but didn’t think too much about it because I’m always depressed around my birthday. I know why I’m depressed, know I can’t (or I’m not willing to) do anything about it, and I know it passes. Every single year my birthday comes (thank God for that), the… Continue reading Friends In Real Life
I must admit that after taking a trip to Turkey and Greece recently, my summer has slipped quickly into monotony. This is truly sad given that I live in such an amazing city in the U.S. My only excuse is that my daughter is taking a class in the afternoon four days a week and… Continue reading Pearl Gets Pawsitively (groan) Polished at Unleashed
Last weekend I submitted my first guest blog post about my family’s recent trip to Tucson, Arizona. It is not that I haven’t been asked before to supply some words of wisdom (ha!) to others’ blogs but this was the first one that I followed through on. Although I wasn’t 100% thrilled with the outcome… Continue reading My First Guest Blog Post
