I haven’t been posting much because there has been a lot going on. A lot. Some good. Some bad. Some kinda boring like spending 30 minutes a day practicing hypnosis.  Yeah, I’ll get to that but first let’s start off with the good. The Good We got our new RV. You can see pictures of […]

We, as women, are bombarded every day with mixed messages. At the grocery store check out line we are told how to get flat abs, have better sex, and “perfect hair”. The ultimate message being we aren’t enough. Then we log onto Facebook and see our friends sharing images or articles with the message “Real […]

We had a good amount of unexpected snow last week which meant more time than usual on the mountain and less time for the computer. There is nothing quite like riding in powder. It feels like like floating. Exhilarating. Freeing. Soul soaring. We are powder seekers. And we fit together “like legos”. We finally made […]

A week and a half ago, I set a goal to land a jump by the end of the season. Saturday, I landed! It wasn’t a very high jump but I don’t care. For me, it takes a lot of courage to go off the small jumps because they look a lot steeper riding up […]

It’s not often that I sit down and feel I need to write but tonight is one of those nights. On the first of this month, I wrote that I was going to take on a different kind of challenge, forgiveness.  Forgiveness February is what I called it. I had a series of posts I thought I’d […]

Last week, Brent and I met an older couple while riding the lift. We came down the mountain and ended up on the same lift with the couple again. Our third run down the man said, “We’ll just ride up with you guys.” We learned they spent half the year in the Outer Banks where he […]

I’m afraid I’m going to have to bore you for a few more weeks with more snow pictures as we have decided to stay in Colorado until mid April. The original was plan to leave March 1 but Colorado is much too beautiful and snowboarding is much too fun to leave quite yet. Here are some highlights […]

Since we have stopped moving, i.e., decided to spend the winter in Colorado, my weeks have become a little routine. Last week there were a few twists to keep things interesting. One I tried my first black run on a snowboard. Despite my I-conquered-this-beast posture in the above picture, the run didn’t go so well. […]

My jeans are finally fitting better. I haven’t made an effort to lose weight since I trained for my RKC weekend. I’m generally pretty comfortable in my body (most of the time) but over the last year as we traveled I ate more calories than than I burned. Pretty simple.  I wasn’t fat…not by a […]

This morning I was laying in bed thinking about the new month, February.  I was thinking about doing a fitness challenge this month but as I lay there under my warm blankets I thought of another challenge, challenge that, for me, is much harder than any sort of fitness goal but one that reaps benefits […]
