Three weeks down and already half way there in terms of mileage! It has been an interesting 2 week, with week 2 remaining on the treadmill and juggling some travel in week 3, but I’ve been trying to stay consistent with getting the miles in to the best of my ability.

Live, Love, and Believe without Restraint
I was reading the back of my mom’s prayer card from her funeral today and thought – this is my reminder to myself for the day. I always try to find something in each day that reminds me to love and believe, to live without restraint, and to just be. When I read this, I … Continue reading
A Breakfast Staple
Within the last few weeks I had the pleasure of receiving some Driscoll’s coupons in the mail, which made me more than excited!
