Life will continue to surprise you all of the time. New opportunities will come your way, friends will come and go and accidents will happen. My accident happened on the last day of June and now my life is forever changed. My recovery has been going very well and the check-in with my surgeon yesterday …

WIAW – Scrambled
Scrambled is how my mind felt by the end of Tuesday. It was an incredibly long day full of back to back to back meetings that ended with an overwhelming desire to go home and collapse, but a strong will sent me to the pool. The morning started with some banana and sun butter …
WIAW – Miniaturized
I am always one who has brought lunch to work and with my accident I have made sure to have food by my side because I cannot run out and grab something if I am out of snacks. Yesterday I realized that I bring a lot of travel sized food. Besides my breakfast of cottage …
Getting in Gear
Sometimes when I wake up all I want is a leftover piece of cold pizza. Well we all know that that isn't going to happen because, 1. I can't eat cheese and 2. I can't remember the last time I had a real piece of pizza for dinner for their to even be leftovers. So …
WIAW: Forget CrossFit…Crutch-It
I know that CrossFit is the big craze right now, and I while I have not had a chance to test my strength with a WOD, I have been working my muscles with a similar intensity - using my CRUTCHES! Hopping around on one leg and using my arms for support to do anything and …

When in doubt, eat bright colors
It was one of those lucky mornings where I just had a bit of sunbutter left so I made oats in a jar. Breakfast was easy because the almost empty nut butter jar was calling my name, but dinner was a different story. I got home at a reasonable time and stood in my kitchen …
Trying something new
This time last year I was training for my first half marathon. I had never run more than 3 miles at a time and the idea of being able to run over 10 consecutive miles was just ludicrous. But before I knew it I was addicted to hitting the pavement, sipping down Nuun and gobbling …
Preparing for the week ahead
Because I could not be with my dad back on the east coast for father's day, Dave and I shared a breakfast of eggs in honor of both of our dads. (Eggs with onions, mushrooms and arugula) Not the same as spending the day with my favorite father, but still tasty 😉 After relaxing in …
Rasberry Jam Kind Of Day
I promised myself that after a super snacky Tuesday I was going to commit to better meals on Wednesday and I think I succeeded. Breakfast was cottage cheese and some rice cakes with RASPBERRY JAM I made it to lunch with only a few nibbles on leftover cookies that were hanging around the office. The …
