We moved to cuba and I became a runner, we're back and now I am an athlete with a few missing pieces --energy, motivation, desire to go. What's going on? Why have I allowed this most recent move to eat me up with stress and take away my natural motivation to exercise? Continue reading

These are great ideas and great plan to help Haiti's people, one at a time. Every little bit helps and everyone can make a difference.

Journaling, I've mentioned, is one of the best things we could do to help us stay on track with fitness and nutrition. It is a great way to be accountable to ourselves. Grab a notebook and start writing. What did... Continue reading

This is a meal I make just about anytime of day. It's a great way to increase protein intake and also allows for a little change in how I eat my vegetables. I love this dish, any time of day.... Continue reading

When the going gets tough, the tough start walking or get weak and start eating. I admit to being on both sides of the meter when it comes to stress and how I react to stress. There have been times... Continue reading

I like the look and feel of the new version but the compose window takes for ever to load and now that my bandwidth is not as fast as it was in the states it's nearly impossible to post anything with any speed. I'm sticking with the old, I know exactly where everything is there :-)

Lance--yeah, why do we buy the stuff? Because we know we like it, we plan to control the portion or work it off somehow and that doesn't always happen. I'm better at working out harder then I am at controlling every bite, but I try and then I work at not stressing about it. Let's just stay healthy inside and out!! Thanks for stopping in. I'll be over at the Jungle to see what provoking thought you bring to us on the 2nd Sunday of the year :-)

Hey Lance. Thanks for coming over, I wish I had coffee to offer ;-) Yes, I do agree that the best way for kids to learn sports and sportsmanship is to let them play, regardless of their skills. They will get better and soon learn but they first need a chance and encouragement. They seem to have a lot of that here!!

Sara, thank you for being here. It is very challenging sometimes to make do with those little things we no longer have. It's a valuable lesson for us all, even my kids are realizing this. The other day my youngest daughter said "can't we just get some of those panda puff cereal from Trader Joe's?" Ummm no. I'm still doing my homework on how I can get things to grow in my sandy, salty back yard. Thanks for stopping in and leaving a comment. Terie
