INTENTIONAL
Last year I chose a word of the year for the first time. Apparently it was CREATE. I chose that word and then promptly forgot… only reminded of it when it came up on my Timehop a few days ago. And let me tell you… […]
RECOVERY DAY
When doing a workout schedule, it’s recommended that one takes a recovery day to allow muscles to repair themselves. It’s an important step in everyone’s exercise routine. Arm day. Leg day. Ab day. Every part of your body gets a day. But why is it […]
NINE ELEVEN
It’s been 20 years. Every year we pause and remember where we were. What we were doing. Who we were with on September 11, 2001. We recount our feelings, thoughts, confusion and heartache. We recall the anger. In the last 20 years there is a […]
