It’s been far too long since I’ve updated this site. Twin motherhood, working full-time, moving twice, and just life has made anything extra (like this blog) hard to keep up with! Something I never anticipated when becoming a mother was how intentional I HAD to be about things I used to do during down time.Continue reading “Pugs & Pushups without the Pugs or Pushups?”

GRIT, Sophie, and how I’ve been feeling lately
When I got her home she ran inside as if she knew we were home! She smelt my whole apartment and took an interest in my boy Charlie. Where he went, she went. Charlie is kind hearted and wouldn’t hurt a fly so he quickly took her under his wing. She slept comfortably on my couch next to me snuggled up to my leg, melting my heart with each and every deep breath that she took. She was comfortable, home, and it showed in her demeanor …
Puppy Up Foundation – Dog Walk

The Puppy Up Foundation is dedicated to finding the links between canine and human cancers – through education, awareness, and investment in research, they are commited to finding these links as well as the causes of cancer for both human and canine patients alike….
Couples Workout!
They say that couples that workout together stay together! We used to workout together all of the time, but in the last few years we have “gone our separate ways” – he, towards body building, me, to crossfit and group fitness.

Welcome back: CrossFit
That’s right, after three months, and no real financial change, I’ve decided that it doesn’t matter how much money I need to spend, I need to go back to crossFit for both my health and my sanity. CrossFit is more than just a gym, or a sport. It’s a community, a hard as F workoutContinue reading “Welcome back: CrossFit”
Liver, Sweet Potatoes, and Paleo!
My coworkers think it’s funny and ask me if everything is paleo. “Hey Suz, is this paleo?” “Hey Suz, I’m eating out of a plastic container – totally paleo right?” “We’re having Chinese food tomorrow, is Chinese food paleo?” It’s light hearted and makes me laugh, but it makes me think about how some nutritionContinue reading “Liver, Sweet Potatoes, and Paleo!”
Gluten free AND Paleo?
So it’s no secret that I have a history of dabbling with different diet and nutrition strategies. Recently I read a book called “Wheat Belly” have you heard of it? It really opened my eyes to what it is I really have been eating. If you’ve read the book, maybe you agree that the authorContinue reading “Gluten free AND Paleo?”
My Unplugged Weekend
So, after a mental dump of everything that I had been feeling, I decided I needed time away. I needed time to collect my thoughts and figure out what my next step is to be. I shut down the social media and picked up a book.

Something weird happened today…
“Something weird happened… I walked around stop and shop and had no desire to buy or eat anything that wasn’t a whole food or considered clean” This morning I had to substitute teach Body Pump at 6am for one of my friends so I had a banana on my way in (I’m really trying notContinue reading “Something weird happened today…”
