I have a love/hate relationship with running. There are days that I can run for miles and enjoy every second and there are days when even looking at my Mizunos gives me an anxiety attack. But I still lace them up. I am not consistent nor am I a power house runner, but I do, […]
The Joy Challenge
My friend Shawna, another oily momma, challenged our group of oilers to put Joy on our heart for a week straight. Challenge accepted! Today is Day 1! I am in love with Joy but that has not always been the case. I first pulled it out of the starter kit and took a big whiff, […]
Back to School Second Saturday
Hey y’all!! We had our August Second Saturday!! This time we skipped some of our preplanned list and threw in a Back to School themed party.

It is the wee hours of the morning but we are up and watching Princess Sofia, all four of us in one small queen sized bed. So what is on the schedule for the wonderful birthday of America? Lots of relaxing and friends. My parents decided to visit my sister so we are confiscating their […]
Brushing Up

Every thing from colon cleanses to fasting to detoxing agents to . . . . whatever companies can sell you. BUT I am on this journey to living healthier, […]
Slow and bumpy?
Our kit has finally arrived and we have decided to start SLOW. . . (I did rush out and buy glass water bottles for myself and J.) So we began with the allergy trio for J. Seems reasonable, right? WRONG! J has major allergy problems with grass, pollen, air, and pretty much anything in nature. […]
And so it begins. . .
Here we are, day one, the beginning of the beginning. . . But first let me go back to where it all started and how I got to this place. Be prepared. . .it’s a long one. About 4 months ago I posted on the good ol’ Facebox that I was having troubles getting my […]
