No More Bat Wings!

There are a few things I'm self conscious about when it comes to my body, and one of the big ones is my bat wings.  Are they super bad?  Not really.  But, it's something that I can start to obsess over when I wear anything sleeveless.  I was hoping to commit to an arm workout routine in preparation for my sister's wedding last December.  But, that didn't happen.  So, now that my bestie has asked me to be in her wedding in the Fall of 2019, I wanted to find a routine that I will actually stick to, going forward. 

I came across Tracey Campoli's YouTube videos a few weeks ago, and am officially obsessed.  Her videos aren't boring like others I've tried, and they're less than 10 minutes a piece!  Plus, two of the videos don't require any weights!  Which, for whatever reason, is a huge selling point for me.

I realize that I should eventually do these routines more than once through as I get stronger, but for now... It's nice to know that I don't have to either give up my existing yoga routine, or find an additional 30 minutes in my day to exercise.

Happy April Fools' Day!

I'm not a very creative person, and have never come up with something truly funny to do to my friends, family, or any roommates I've had over the years.  Maybe one day I'll be able to put some of the ideas below to good use.  Until then... these are just amusing.

There is No Gain Without Struggle

We all struggle with something.  In our moments of struggle, it's impossible to think that other people could possibly be feeling the same hurt, frustration, and loneliness we are.  Remember you are not alone.  Struggling is a part of being human.  Without it, we would not appreciate the good things that we have.  Today, recognize that without struggle, we are not driven to be better.  You are better today, than you were yesterday.  Just keep going!  Keep taking steps every day to work towards your goals of personal development. 

Blessed

  Ahh… the holidays are officially here and in full swing.   I had the most lovely visit with my family over Thanksgiving.   I am so blessed!!   We ate way too much, watched way too much football for my taste, and really just hunkered down for a couple of days enjoying each other’s company.   I didn’t even mind all the stuff everywhere.   J   I felt sad and lonely after everyone left on Saturday.   Luckily, I’ll get to see them again in a few weeks!!   There were many lessons learned over those couple of days.   For one, I need to maintain a healthy and active mind.   I also, need to stay on top of my hearing and monitor the progression of loss.   After being around my parents for a few days, I see my future, and I’m screwed.   LOL.   I paid attention at how my parents and my sister and her girlfriend interacted, and I can see evidence of the importance of maintaining open communication, and remaining fr...
