Okay, disclaimer- this is a topic that I could go on and on about, so I will try my best to keep this concise (edited to add- I lied. This is not concise.)

Back in gym (again)
I finally went back to the gym! (I feel like I've had a few of these "I'm back!" posts....hopefully you won't see one again. 😆) Back around my birthday in October, I had kind of claimed this next year as the "year I return to the gym", after falling out of it bigtime during the… Continue reading Back in gym (again)

IT FEELS SO… Continue reading Happiness in the gym

I know how much effort it takes to get back in the swing of real life again, so I just completely removed that from my plate. (I think… Continue reading Back to exercise
