This took an extreme (not altogether unexpected) hiatus! Hopefully I can be a bit more consistent in writing here, if anything so that my memory starts kicking in again. Main milestones since last we spoke? Got married. Went on a round-the-world honeymoon. Bought an...

When I was a teenager, I had pretty bad skin. Actually, really bad. Having slightly oily/combination skin, I suppose that’s to be expected, but honestly I remember it being horrible. I thought it would go away as I got older but it never did, so by the time I...

I started bootcamp on January 19. It was meant to go for 4 weeks – until February 19. 3 days a week, 7am start. I thought I’d hate it and soldier through, then see where it left me after a month. But after that month, I immediately signed up for the next...

I’m halfway done the 4 week bootcamp. I was pretty sad that I missed last Friday’s class. No, not sad – mad. I was angry at myself for missing it. Once I skip one, it’s so much easier to justify skipping others. But since there were extenuating...

So I’ve survived the first week of bootcamp. The Wednesday class, called “ball fit” was pretty intense – lots of jumping holding an exercise ball. After having dirty runners for the first class, I decided to throw them in the washing machine...

This is the first time I’ve ever done any fitness bootcamp of any sort. I had no idea what to expect, and I purposely chose to sign up for a 3-day-a-week one for a month to ‘kick start’ my goal of getting in shape for this year. As an added bonus, on...

This weekend we were invited, along with every single couple getting married in 2015 at our venue, to taste a sample menu and wander the grounds to see what the place looks like when it’s ‘set up’ for a wedding. They had a buffet for us to sample,...
