Thoughts on Body Image and Social Media

April 16, 2012 in Musings

Jenn Self Portrait

A few weeks ago, while scrolling through Facebook status updates I noticed a self-portrait, or a “body shot”, of girl who was a friend of a friend (she had tagged my friend) taken from the hips to the shoulders revealing a very smooth flat tummy. I’ll be honest the flat tummy caught my eye long enough for […]

My Mind the Enemy – A Family History of Cancer

March 29, 2012 in Musings

Sunset Blind Pass Beach Manasota Key

I remember being teenager and happily thinking that no one in my family had gotten cancer. I can remember going over each one of my aunts, uncles, and grandmas faces in my mind and confidently thinking “no cancer”. I may have to worry about tornados, sharks, and roller coasters getting stuck upside down but not […]

Oscar Winner for Best Celebrity Arms

February 27, 2012 in Fluff and Stuff

As I’ve gotten older I’ve grown less interested in celebrities and especially in celebrity bodies. Snore.  Confession. I didn’t even know the Oscars were on last night until this morning. I must live in an RV without any TV under a rock. However, in keeping with tradition, here is the Girl Heroes Oscar Winners for […]

“Rough Drafts”

December 19, 2011 in Travel

Jenn and Meow Cow

There have been many adjustments the last few months since we moved into an RV. The obvious being a small living space and the constant moving. What surprises me is those have been the easiest changes. I love having less stuff and less to clean. (I can’t even tell you how freeing it feels.) I […]

Goodbye Old “Friend”

November 3, 2011 in Musings, Travel

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 […]

On the road! (Finally)

October 26, 2011 in Travel

5th Wheel Thing 1

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 […]

Patch of Picnic

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 […]
