30 to 30

I emailed this list to my sisters the other day and asked them how reasonable they think this is. They all seemed to think it was at least a great idea, and several have asked that they can do some of the list items with me, which I'm all for! You had to see this…

Small Victories

Last weekend I ran a 5K. Not a big deal, right? I am the least athletic person I know, and if you asked me why I decided to run a race, I couldn't possibly tell you. I don't know what came over me. But it happened maybe a year ago. I put it on a…
