Ok, I admit it. I have tried every weight loss pill, supplement and program on the market. Yes, all of them. I started way back in high school with a pill called Dexatrim. Does that even exist anymore? Oh my gosh, it does! I just searched for it, and there it is. It...

As pretty much everyone in the world knows, I love to cook. I don’t just like it, I absolutely love cooking. If I see a recipe that is intriguing I may drop everything and run to the kitchen to create. I had been hearing a lot of buzz about the home delivered meal...

(That’s me in the pink with the crazy shorts and headband) So I have done quite a few half marathons over the years. I am thinking I am closing in on 30. Iowa was my 13th state on my “50 state” journey. As I approached the start line of this race, I was...

It has been 7 years since I stepped out of one door and walked through another. It was scary, challenging and empowering all rolled into one. Leaving a 25 year marriage is hard. Even if it isn’t the greatest relationship, it is comfortable and safe. Comfortable and...

12:01am on December 31, 2014 began the worst day of my life. I had been at the hospital with my daughter since 6:00am on December 30th. My son-in-law had called me at 3:30am that morning to tell me that my grandson had died. At 39 weeks gestation, they went to the...

Ah, my biggest problem, focus. I have often said that I struggle with some level of attention deficit disorder. Sometimes the thoughts in my brain are moving so quickly that I can’t keep track of them. I have one business or blog post idea, and as soon as it enters my...

We had company this weekend, and I splurged a bit. We got a pizza from a local, to remain unnamed, take and bake place. It tasted good, but within an hour I was not feeling well. At first I couldn’t exactly pinpoint the problem. Then Steve mentioned that he wasn’t...
