Right now, I am staying in a trailer that does not have bathrooms or showers, only rooms. Before you start to feel too much pity for me, I have access to bathrooms and showers...I just have to walk a ways to get there. By a ways, I mean 25 yards, maybe? I don't know how… Continue reading Deployment Chronicles Pt I

New Year’s Resolut…goals
I am not a huge resolutioner (yes, that is a word) when it comes to the New Year. I really don't focus on the whole "new year, new me" jargon. Resolutions, to me, are not something that just happen with the introduction of a new year. I mean, most people aren't one way on December… Continue reading New Year’s Resolut…goals
Some battles aren’t worth fighting…
...has been a mantra in my house for the last five weeks and it really is the truth.

Run, baby, run
Lately I have been feeling a little discouraged with my half marathon training. As my Facebook posts have indicated, running Colorado is so difficult. I am able to get to four miles, but I have to stop a few times because I just do not feel like I have the endurance to not rest for… Continue reading Run, baby, run
