It took more than a small amount of courage to admit my faults publicly. I knew better than to post my personal life for public scrutiny and yet that is exactly what I did five years ago. I sat down in front of my computer and I began to write the truth about my […]
He’s making oatmeal for us. Last night he made us a pizza from scratch. I wasn’t going to eat the pizza. I am not supposed to eat the pizza. The pizza is not on my meal plan. The pizza is not going to help me win my fitness challenge. The pizza is not… The pizza […]
#day15 #TeamErin #Oxychallenge At 2:50pm on some Tuesday I am sitting at a local coffee shop with my computer in front of me and a page that is blank, but full of promise. If my life were a book I could write any story and I suppose that is the truth of what this here […]
