Through The Tulips

My alter ego Simply Wizardress has started a new feature which will begin today- at none other than 5 O’ Clock. It’s appropriately called 5 O’ Clock Friday’s and anyone can participate, blogger or non-blogger. All you need to do is take a picture at 5 O’ Clock today and send it in. Or you [...]

Repeat after me- Ok, you don’t have to, but when I read this, I felt as though it was written for me. I’m going to add it to my phone, my fridge and any place else where it can reach out, grab me and serve as a reminder. ” Most barriers to your success are [...]

I’m not sure why, but I’m still struggling to get myself back on the work out track. I’m doing really well with my eating, but I can’t seem to force myself to get on that elliptical. My intentions are good, and I keep telling myself to ‘just do it’, but then I find other things [...]

It’s the beginning of a new week and I can already tell it’s going to be a great one. Yesterday, I did something that I’ve never done before in my life- I walked on a frozen canal. Yes, I know it doesn’t seem like much, but trust me, for someone who has never walked on [...]
