It hard to put into words how much fun we’ve been having on the road. That’s not to say it’s not without its hard days.  I’ve found myself, once or twice, curled up on Brent’s lap crying my eyes wondering what the heck are we doing. The day we visited Carlsbad Caverns National Park was [...]

First, I want to say THANK YOU for the support regarding my relapse. I was really nervous about posting it for fear someone who tell me it was “just in my head” or there is “no such thing as a sugar addiction”.  Addiction is a serious matter and I certainly don’t want to trivialize more [...]

This morning I lay in bed wondering about the state of my immune system and pancreas. That’s what most people think about upon waking, no? Since moving into an RV and hitting the road many things have changed.  I wake up to different surrounding almost every day.  I have a small refrigerator.  I have about [...]

We left our home in Ventura with almost everything we owned in tow behind us four weeks ago yesterday. It’s been a whirlwind of adventure for sure.  We hadn’t planned to go to Nevada so soon but we had an emergency stop that put us right at the border between Arizona and Nevada. While our [...]

It’s Girl Hero time again! This Girl Hero is extra special because she is my sister-in-law.  Kristi is a hairstylist and mother to three wonderful boys!  Her and her husband Garrett enjoy being outdoors and cooking together and, boy, can they cook.  Seriously, Thanksgiving at their house is nothing short of AMAZING.  This spring Kristi [...]

I finally filmed (and edited with the help of Thing 1) my first workout of the 48 workouts I’m planning to film while we travel this year and uploaded it to my brand new YouTube account. This workout was done in Yosemite National Park overlooking Half Dome about an hour before sunset.  This location is [...]

I made a tough decision last week.   I dropped it off at Goodwill (along with a candle that I just love and a curling iron that I still can’t use). I have had the same scale since I was in high school.  I was planning on taking it with me. Over the years I’ve [...]

We are at Brent’s parents for a few days organizing and getting rid of more stuff before we head up to the San Jose area.  This means I’m not working out and eating too much don’t have much to say about food and fitness right now.  Seriously, I think I’ve put on about 5 pounds [...]

Hi guys! We moved into the rv!  Finally! The last two weeks have been B-U-S-Y.  Moving 4 people into a 280 square foot home was not an easy task.  At times is was maddening and I cried puddles more than once.  We left Ventura late Sunday night.  I’m chronicling our travel journey over on my [...]

Life is crazy.  We live on a ginormous spinning sphere of matter that rotates with a bunch of other spheres around a massive beyond comprehension inferno of gases.  Then there are caterpillars that turn into butterflies, male seahorses that hatch babies, and anteaters.  Wonderful craziness. Anyway… My life is particularly crazy in the strange way [...]
