All the world’s a stage gym. Last Thursday, I didn’t plan to workout. I had already gotten in a good workout the day before but then I saw this… …like a crazy woman thankfully the kettlebells were still in the car The Workout 10 Kettlebell Snatches (5 right, 5 left) 4 Flights of Stairs [...]
Brent is shooting some children’s music videos today and tomorrow. Like last year, I’ve been hired to do “crafts service”. Like most normal people, I brought my kettlebells along and slipped away for a workout. While Brent was doing this… …I was doing this. (Don’t tell him.)

We kicked our camping season off this weekend with a trip up the coast with one of our homeschooling groups. (For those who may be considering homeschooling and are concerned about “socialization”. Don’t worry, in most towns, the opportunities to hang out with other kids and really get to know other families are endless.) [...]
I know being sore is necessarily indicative of a good workout. I don’t care. I like being sore. In fact, I LOVE being sore and I have a feeling that I’ll be sore tomorrow after today’s workout. I just did this workout this morning with my friend, Deb, aka, Smoothie Girl. Isn’t she cute. If [...]

My blog is not new but I’m new to “blogging”. Let me explain. I’ve been writing and silently reading a few other blogs for a while now. Recently, with Janetha’s encouragement, I decided to step outside of my comfort zone and interact with other bloggers. Don’t roll your eyes. It’s not easy when [...]
If you’ve read my blog for any length of time you may have noticed I don’t do many long workouts. Sure, I enjoy going long hikes, walks, or even an occasional jog but as far as scheduled workouts I prefer them short and intense. It’s better for my body, for my sanity and I’m not a [...]
Saturday I spent the day at the beach nurturing my latest obsession…kettlebells! A friend had mentioned she had been reading my blog and wanted to try kettlebells out for herself. Eager to find someone who wanted to listen to me ramble on about how much fun they are, I offered to help her and her [...]
I hope you didn’t get this twice or more. If so, sorry. We are having some technical difficulties on this end. (I say “we” as in my husband. Email alone can make me want to throw a kettlebell at the screen.) Anyway, I wrote this post yesterday morning but it doesn’t appear to have sent [...]
