EMBRACE…

Political Divisions…

Pardon me while I let you in on a not-so-secret obsession of mine. I am a political junkie. Kind of like I’m a meteorological junkie… but that’s a different story for a different time. I love politics....

Postcrossing…

The haps de Julie…

I feel the need to update my blog lately. I’m not sure why. I don’t have anything new happening really. But I feel like if nothing else I should get a little update going. So this is really just a...

It’s just too late…

I’m writing this post on a Monday night long after I should be sleeping. Rejeuvenating this body that so desperately needs the rest so that I can accomplish all of the amazing things I have yet to...

Awesome April…

Awesome April: Update 1…

This past week… even after writing out my April goals… did not turn out so hot. Not one of the 5 goals was hit each day. There were a couple days where I wrote out the 500 words or more, and a couple...

End It…

I’ve been watching CrossPoint Church online over the past few months on Sunday nights. Pete Wilson (whose book I’m currently reading) is the pastor there and this past week… moved me to tears. He and...

Day 1…

I’m starting something new. Something I hope will motivate me more than just the average “diet”… because I don’t really want to “diet” anymore. I want to change my lifestyle as a whole. I want to get...

I want all the foods…

When I was gearing up for this DietBet challenge I had everything planned out. How I would track my food. That I would go to bed earlier and get the amount of sleep I *should* be getting. To exercise –...

It’s been a while…

For some reason I seem to be taking a “blogging hiatus” lately. I don’t mean to… it just seemed to happen. I want to write more, but each time I sit down to be productive, I’m just not. Actually, I...
