Sunday Ramblings

January 22, 2012

Blah. Another weekend down the drain and I feel even more behind than I did when the weekend started! I’m one of those people who has a lot of ideas that come up through the week, and then on the weekend rush to try to figure out how do to them. This week, I had all sorts of things I wanted to write, and ended up with very little of it done. So is life!

There is one thing in particular that I wrote on the ENELL blog that I wanted to share here, because it’s a question I’ve thought about often, and think it’s a great self-reflection exercise: What would you do if you dared to dream bigger? 

This week, I also got a copy of Spry Magazine in the mail – it’s an insert in the paper in the vain of Parade, but I don’t get it here in my local paper. They put my mug in their January issue:

The great people at local Ace Weekly Magazine published the story I wrote about my feelings towards Georgia’s anti-childhood obesity campaign. It’s slightly edited for print, but more or less what I blogged about a couple of weeks ago. You can check it out online here.

Last but not least, my favorite pin of the week from Pinterest:

 

What is going on in your neck of the woods?

    Easier said than done, but I am trying.

    congrats on being in the paper, etc! I feel the same way about weekends- I always have a million things to do and then do, like, four of them. ps: you are such an inspiration to me (sorry that sounds so cheesy, but it is true). I read your blog religiously and reading your words and learning about your experiences helps me think about myself. I truly appreciate your posts. 
    You’re awesome!

    Congrats on the media mentions!! That is awesome.

    This weekend was super busy with a ton of family stuff going on, but it was fun all the same. Today marks my one year weight loss journey anniversary! One year ago I signed up for WW and as of today I’ve lost 58.6 lbs!
