It's Finally Come to an End

Well, here we go again...after about a 7 month "vaca" he's going back on the road. We knew this was happening eventually, and now it's a reality. Come next month, Matty will be headed to the deep south! Hopefully run into Troy and the gang from Swamp People! Fortunately I have so much here to keep me busy with work, yoga, trainings, the garden, drake, the house, the renters, the girls :) I will blink my eyes and he'll be back. I'm both excited and sad of course. Excited he can get back to doing what he loves and making some real money. Sad I'll be without him, and sad for Drake too...Drake's Gonna miss him....Luckily it's a short one, then it'll be his bday again....take a few days off and travel, kick it, celebrate, go to the country and what not. Same ole story for my bday this year...he'll be gone :( ...looks like we'll celebrate this weekend...oh well...not too worried about it..like I said, I have plenty to keep me busy. And grateful to have a wonderful support system close by with the girls and the neighbors, and if all else fails, I've got my shotgun! Who knows...maybe I'll find some time to venture down there...never been. We'll see. What I do know is it's about a17 hour drive from home, that's 1,026 miles away...waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
Muwah Matty.

No Sugar




So, now that Matty's dad has diabetes...he's getting more and more aware of what he's eating. When he first found out, he turns to me and says, "maybe I should listen to you about what i eat". yep. Now, my mom, his dad, both his grandma's are all diabetic...this weekend he says, i need to cut out sugar! whoa...that's hardcore...even for me. NO sugar! I don't think he know's what he's in for...carbs, bread, everything has sugar. Don't get me wrong, we could all stand to drop a few...and I'm totally stoked he's on a health kick...but baby steps...black coffee - already doing, no soda, getting there...no alcohol...hmmmm. carbs...i love carbs...oh well...it's nice to have a partner conscious about food too! I got mom doing the Coconut Palm Sugar..suppose to be the best kind for diabetes...so next time I'm in Wilmington I'll be stocking up for us too...no more splenda, stevia, agave...oh no...what about honey?? hmmmm Gonna have to consult with my foodies at yoga about this one...


Until Next Time ....think twice next time you put something in your body....

party girl to yoga bad ass

Going from drinking every night, parting it up.....to yoga, breathing, yoga workshops, meditating - ahhh i love it....wonder if its me maturing into me and the fact I'll be 30 soon...or if this is my path..after 29.7 years.. I've found it!


No kids, not married, living at the beach, working a fabulous job with fabulous bosses, and now yoga..yoga has completed me! holy freakin' cow! I've seen the light. "yoga - it really is a way of life"


I'm less interested in the bar/club thing ..not saying I won't enjoy a nice bottle of wine from time to time..or celebrate St. patty's day....and Lord knows I love being behind the bar, but I'm just like yeah whatever.. i don't need it...



Until Next Time ~ Namaste.

St Patty's Day Volunteer Work

 And we put him to work lol :)

Spring has Sprung

It's getting hot in here...So this week's weather is off the chain warm! Stoked! And Friday the girls and I have the whole day off!! WOrd! time to hit the beach, sand, warm sun...and chill. Kickin' it off old school! Excited to have some girl time and beach time...my legs need a tan! if they were tan, I might be more incline to shave them lol.

Question. So if it's already 70-80 degrees now in March...does that mean it's gonna hit 100-110 in August?!?!? Eeeek. One word for the summer = hydration.

later ya'll
