Working out with Bob Harper

April 29, 2014May 18, 2018 likeafinevino5 Comments

I’ve been a huge fan of Bob Harper for several years now since I started watching the show “The Biggest Loser.”  I love his ability to motivate people and he’s such a kind, compassionate person. I’ve been working out with his DVDs for a couple of years, but I always do the beginner workouts.  The… Continue reading Working out with Bob Harper

The best kind of run

April 28, 2014May 18, 2018 likeafinevinoLeave a comment

It was another busy weekend, but I had so much fun!  We got together with friends both Friday and Saturday night, and it was our youngest daughter’s senior prom on Saturday night.  Lots of laughs (and a few tears during prom pictures). I also ate and drank quite a bit, so on Sunday I was… Continue reading The best kind of run

Wow, what a week!

April 25, 2014May 18, 2018 likeafinevino2 Comments

Wow, it has been a crazy week, but lots of good things have been happening. It started with getting my monthly Vegan Cuts Snack Box in the mail: If you’re not familiar with the Vegan Cuts Snack Box, it’s a monthly subscription of a variety of vegan snacks that you receive every month.  My husband… Continue reading Wow, what a week!

I don’t think I’m old enough to have a 21-year-old child.

April 22, 2014May 18, 2018 likeafinevinoLeave a comment

Today my oldest daughter turns 21.  I’m not sure where the time went, but it was seriously just a week ago that I gave birth to her, and it was just a few short days ago that I was sobbing as I put her on the school bus on her first day of school. As I… Continue reading I don’t think I’m old enough to have a 21-year-old child.

Evaluating my priorities

April 20, 2014May 18, 2018 likeafinevino2 Comments

It has been a great weekend. It started out on Friday night, when I came home after work and did a 4-mile run. Then yesterday, after doing some chores around the house, our family spent the afternoon sitting outside on our back patio, soaking in the warm sun. One of my favorite things to do… Continue reading Evaluating my priorities

What inspires you?

April 16, 2014May 18, 2018 likeafinevino2 Comments

Every morning when I get up, I look forward to the day.  What can I do to inspire others to be more healthier and happier? It would be impossible to inspire others, however, if I’m uninspired.  And let me tell you, I’ve had many days, even months and years, when I felt uninspired.  I was… Continue reading What inspires you?

A Productive Sunday

April 14, 2014May 18, 2018 likeafinevino3 Comments

Yesterday was a busy day!  My husband and I are working on projects around the house, getting prepared for our youngest daughter’s graduation party in about six weeks.  Yesterday my project was cleaning out some cupboards in the kitchen and reorganizing things so that it doesn’t look so cluttered.  I took some before photos, but… Continue reading A Productive Sunday

Awesome running day!

April 13, 2014May 18, 2018 likeafinevino1 Comment

Yesterday was a gorgeous day!  Although I had plans to do some stuff around the house, the outdoors was calling me and so I headed outside for a run!  By the way, I wish I was better at taking selfies!  I envy those who always look cute in their selfies.  I always feel awkward when… Continue reading Awesome running day!

Happy!

April 11, 2014May 18, 2018 likeafinevino5 Comments

My new running shoes came yesterday!  I got the Brooks Ghost.  Aren’t they cool?  All of my running shoes have been Brooks.  They have all been comfortable, dependable shoes, and so I figure, why change a good thing?  And so I continue to buy this brand.  These are my first pair of Ghosts.  The reviews… Continue reading Happy!

I found me again!

April 8, 2014May 18, 2018 likeafinevino3 Comments

I used to be creative.  I used to be a bit artistic.  I used to be optimistic and positive, and I thought the best of everyone I knew and met.  I was a vegetarian. I don’t know what really happened to that version of myself.  It just faded over the years.  Life became about taking… Continue reading I found me again!
