We had a beautiful day of boating with family and friends for Father’s Day today, in Jewfish sandbar by Sarasota Fl today.
Our goal is to get a boat one day. We have so much fun out on the water. How was your weekend?
Cheers!

Hey everyone! It was a pretty crappy week last week. Work/personal stress + still suffering from this cold sort of did me in.
But thankfully we had today off from work, and my hubby took me on a lunch date. We went to a place called On Swann in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Tampa Fl. It was such a lovely place and we enjoyed some drinks and delicious and light food. It was just lovely. We finished the day with some window shopping and I even landed a few items for 30% off.








How was your Friday? Any fun plans this weekend?
Cheers!

I started long distance running back in 2007, but have been running since my track days in junior high and high school – 35 plus years. Running has always been my therapy, so the lack of running has started to affect my mental and physical health here lately. I’ve been fighting some demons I thought I let go for some reason, so wanted to share a throwback picture of one of my strongest half marathons in Chicago IL, 9 years ago.


I miss feeling this strong-and pray I can get back to this place someday. Can anyone relate?
Cheers,
Michelle

Today was my first physical day back at work since I was sick last week. Add in the fact that I only got four hours of sleep, equals a perfect rest day tonight. I did make a yummy dinner-panko crusted pork chops, brown rice/quinoa blend with scallions and sautéed asparagus. Yum! How was your day? #tuesday

Cheer!

Happy Monday, everyone!!! While I’m not 100%, I do feel much better. The only thing running is my nose, lol, so I did a 30 minute hike at an incline on the treadmill today, core, and my daily plank. How was your day? #mondaymotivation

Cheers!

I was able to spend the day with my daughter today at the pool again. She’s always been obsessed with mermaids, so when she was able to use the mermaid tail at the pool today, she was elated. And to see an almost 15 year old smiling from ear to eat like a little kid, truly made my day. She told me it “sparked joy” in her life and it just warmed my heart.




I’m going to take a cue from her, and do more things that spark joy in my life, too.
Who’s with me?!
Cheers!

Today was my first day out of the house in a over a week, and it was glorious. I’m still not 100% but feeling better. We decided to skip the beach as the St Pete beach coast line is filled with red tide and I didn’t want to aggravate my cold. We spent the day at the pool and then went to dinner with my daughter and my friend Kandice. I also took my daughter shopping and I have to say how nice it was to see people’s faces. I’ve really missed seeing the expressions on people’s faces. 🤩





How was your day?
Cheers!
