Twice this week I made it to a yoga / yoga-blend class.
Yeah. Yoga. I don’t do that.
Why?
Because I’m 5’2″ (or 3?) and I can’t touch my toes. I don’t come anywhere NEAR touching my toes. Never have. But maybe I will?
On Wednesday I went to a class called Yo-Pi. It was [...]
ONE WEEK UNTIL BLEND RETREAT! EEEK! I got my roommates for BLEND yesterday. I’m so excited. I’m rooming with Vanessa from Fit Savvy and Haute and Gina from Running to the Kitchen.

This post is not about muffin top or tight pants. It’s about crafting.
But I am wearing the TIGHTEST pants today. They used to be my favorite work pants. I could slide them on and off without unbuttoning them. Then I gained 15 pounds (needed to gain 5-7 of that). Then I lost 10. Then [...]
Oh, so in case you’re wondering what I ended up buying, in regard to the dress post from last week, I went with the white sale dress and the pink dress. The pink dress ended up being SEE THRU. And the waist was [...]
I was hoping to do a Humpday Blog Love post every week until Blend, but I didn’t get a chance to write this week’s post, and I wanted to let her review it before I posted it. So I will resume with the blog lovin’ next week!
Instead, I [...]
I had a post about my double date on Saturday night scheduled for today, but my mom finally scanned this photo that I’ve been wanting her to scan for a while. So instead, you get the worst photo of me ever.
A post on The Lunchbox Diaries entitled “Dear Self” prompted me [...]
