Quick and Dirty

08.24.2011

Here’s a quick and dirty post from me tonight in bullet point form, because that’s all my brain is capable of handling right now. Literally EVERY TIME I turned the car on today, Lady Gaga’s “You & I” was on the radio. Creepy. Good thing I love that song. The boot has come off. Well, not officially. …

Striving

08.23.2011

I just took another few minutes to re-read the comments I got from the post where I questioned what I would think if the scale never moved from this number. Everyone was so insightful, and that is why I am incredibly thankful for this place where I can just lay everything out in the open …

Happy birthday mom. I wish you were still here so I could wish it to you in person and give you a big hug. Remember that time I put together a bad homemade “surprise party” when you turned 36? I put streamers and balloons on the door and made a big sign that said “36″ on …

What if this is it?

08.22.2011

This frustrated mind of mine has been very loud this weekend, when not being distracted by my awful ear infections and vertigo that have me feeling drunk on top of a hangover with a headache that won’t stop. Between my boot (still in for 1 more week), my ear infections and vertigo, I am a …

Seven Links

08.07.2011

A week (or two?) ago, the lovely Beth from Beth’s Journey tagged me in her Seven Links post. I normally don’t do these sort of tag-along posts just because of time restrictions, but I really have enjoyed these posts as they’ve been floating around the blogosphere.

Big Picture

07.24.2011

Stalled. People are watching. Standing on the stage as a source of light when all of a sudden the electricity fails. Darkness comes yet the audience can still see. Unable to move. I want to close the curtain. Days, weeks and months pass by – walking, running, stumbling – yet getting no closer to the light. …

Little Swimmer

07.21.2011

The boot is frustrating the heck out of me, and I’m not even through 5 days of wearing it! You know how you always want what you can’t have? Well, since the boot has gone on, I now want to run and leap, in spite of the fact that I have never been super fond …

The Boot

07.18.2011

Welcome to edition #33252 of Emmie’s ramblings. I did a little interview over at Brooklyn Fit Chick’s blog – go check it out here. I’ll wait until you get back… While exploring some more through my past photos and journals, I found the complete opposite of my 15 year old selfI blogged about yesterday. I found a …

Here’s a great reminder: FitBloggin’ Local Meetup Nashville this Saturday! We’ve got a full day of informal fitness, networking and content. Full agenda here. Please RSVP ASAP so we can get a …
