Despite wanting nothing more than to dress in flannel PJs and lounge on the sofa, I managed to get it together for all my weekend obligations and activities. My first, and most unpleasant, weekend to-do was the Rocktoberfest Half-Marathon. My initial running buddy ended up with too much on her plate and decided to bail […]

In the matter of one week my life went from busy and productive to lazy and sloppy. As they say in sports, I believe I left all of my energy and motivation “on the floor” October 9. You’d think I’d feel sad now that the wedding is over, but to be honest, I looked forward […]

Traveling in Style

Winking smile

I arrived in Puerto Rico yesterday along with my family and we immediately rented cars and began the trek to Rincon, a little town 3 hours west of San Juan. The driving was certainly an experience but we made it in one piece. And speaking of driving, the car rental place didn’t have the car […]

So little time!! It is currently Wednesday evening (I think) and I leave for my Puerto Rico wedding in approximately 15 hours! Some weeks ago, I thought working everyday prior to my departure was a good idea. I’m hating that me from some weeks ago. Disregarding the fact that nothing is packed and a billion […]
