6 Things I’ve Given Up
The last year has made it clear that there are some things I just don’t need. I’ve been going through my closet to let go of clothes I haven’t worn in years – yes, years. I already gave away boxes of shoes. Some were brand new. Hindsight, I probably should have sold them. 2020 got […] Read more…
Where have I Been

My Fitness Journey Started with French Fries
When I was about eighteen, I went to the doctor for a normal physical. She did blood work and went over it with me. Normal stuff, right? Then she brought up her concern for my cholesterol. She was surprised at how high it was, especially for someone my age. She implored me to get it […] Read more…
