After my not so stellar performance in Week 6, I really wanted to turn things around in Week 7. I was so excited about the change in routine and all the crazy new workouts that I was going to be doing, that I actually got up on Saturday morning and worked out. It was a [...]

I went out into the garden two days ago and wanted to take some photos of the garden to show you how sad it looked. As you’ve probably noticed, I still have not shared those photos because it’s even sadder than I thought. Our raspberry trellis fell over in a big storm we had last [...]

The weather here is still yo-yoing between winter and spring…but I have little doubt that we will turn around twice and spring will be passing us by, with summer setting in strongly. Which makes me turn to thoughts about our garden, our hopes of growing all our own produce one day and all the work [...]

Hi anipals! I don’t know what the weather has been like near you, but I hope it’s as nice as it has been here! The last few days it’s been getting colder but still really nice and sunny. It’s quite heavenly although running through the fields is a bit difficult since it’s rained off and on [...]

Since I grew up in Texas, I’m a big fan of TexMex food. But finding good TexMex or Mexican food around Frankfurt is next to impossible. We went to a “Mexican” restaurant several years ago and ordered fajitas. What came out was a few strips of beef, carrot slices, broccoli and I seem to recall [...]

Here’s how it went down this week. Monday I completed two rounds of part 1 Buns & Fat Burning workout in 7 min 27 sec. This is better than two weeks ago but I still felt just as dead afterwards. Still wanted to hurl, still my head was pounding. I’m starting to think I’m just not [...]

Dear Mackenzie, It’s been another great month and we’ve been learning so much. I finally started using the reading cards with you but it’s sometimes really hard to keep your focus for even the 5 seconds it takes to flip through the cards. It’s something I was warned about but one just never expects the attention [...]

Welcome to the wide world of Newfie! You read it right…I celebrated a burpday yesterday! Yes, this time it was really my burpday and not Mackenzie’s. I turned 4 years old. Can you believe it? Mom and dad said it’s almost a miracle I survived this long. The first year I was especially crazy…but apparently I [...]

A friend of ours came to visit last weekend which put us in an interesting position. She is currently not eating anything with dairy products in it–which is an incredibly difficult task when you think about it. No milk chocolate, no butter, no cheese, no ice cream, no sour cream….I seriously might starve if I [...]

Despite it being a mediocre week for my workout routines, at least I gave it my best when I was working out. I was having trouble with my motivation and positive thinking…perhaps it was all the late nights watching Olympics instead of getting some sleep and preparing myself mentally for the day ahead. I find [...]
