Where There’s a Will…

Where there’s a will, there’s a way. At least that’s what they say, LOL. 

The crazy spring weather continues, and I’m facing it on the daily. If I can mention the wind again, I’d windfess that I don’t ever remember the magnitude of what Momma N has been throwing at us in recent months. We’re not talking a few simple wind gusts, but daily sustained wind with numbers usually in the upper teens for wind speed. 

Thankfully, the temps have been steadily on the rise and we’re seeing quite a bit of sunshine. Glass half full!

To Vest or Not to Vest: a few initial thoughts


In case you haven’t noticed, I jumped on the weighted vest “band wagon” recently.

I know, I know. Like I really needed one more fitness accessory in the arsenal. But, who am I kidding? The more, the merrier! 

After hearing so many good things about this fairly new fitness trend, I wanted to give it a try as well. After all, I’m a huge advocate for walking, why not UP the intensity a bit?

That Spring Feeling


Spring is officially here, and I’m definitely feeling its vibes.

The weather is warmer (for the most part). The daylight is exponentially increasing. The trees are budding. The grass is turning green. Spring bulbs are blooming. 

Yeah. Things are feeling good!

Perseverance Pays Dividends



Perseverance takes on a new meaning in dealing with the spring weather, at least in my little corner of the universe.

We’re talking erratic temps, intermittent precipitation, and nonstop windy conditions (emphasis on the windy, LOL). Facing all that nonsense, especially on the daily, does build character and strengthens one mental strength and tolerance. Not a bad payout!

At least that’s what I tell myself (also on the daily).

Time for a Refill


Well, whaddya know? 

We’re already rockin’ a new month. That means it’s time to gather ‘round the virtual table and have a virtual chat. I don’t know about you, but I’m always game for such things.

We’ve had some chilly temps of recent, and I’ve been pounding the warm beverages like it’s my job. In fact, it’s been a challenge keeping my mug full. 

Speaking of which, I’m due for a refill; so how about we get this party started…
