Did you just sing that in Dory’s voice from Finding Nemo? That’s my intention for the year. To keep going especially when I don’t want to. Last year’s phrase was No U Turns. It was/is hard as all hell not to go back to the way I’ve always done something. I’ve learned that even theContinue reading “Just keep going… updated”

Reflections of 2021
I’ve tried to write several posts over the last couple of weeks, but sometimes even when you want the words to come they don’t. I could not let the year end without acknowledging my journey through the year. Some of the highlights of 2021: Taking Jess Weiner’s WTF is Success courseQuitting a job that IContinue reading “Reflections of 2021”
Compelled to
I keep going no matter what. Occasionally my body forces me to rest and recover and I hate it. I know that I need to rest and that my body deserves recovery after all that I do, but I have some severe anxiety that my resting will create another pause. I’m not ashamed to admitContinue reading “Compelled to”
Birthday Bash
Cyclebar Village Meridian turned 5 years old last week. (October 27-28, 2021) To celebrate there were theme rides, guest cyclestars, killer soundtracks, and lots of riding. There were 10 rides between the 2 days. I rode 8 of those rides. One of those rides was with my husband and our weekly date night… for CBContinue reading “Birthday Bash”

The time I got my Driver’s License for the first time. It was a big deal! My life has changed so much since getting my license. After driving in New York any apprehension I had about driving has been eradicated. This was also when the seeds to do other things that scared me bloomed. TodayContinue reading “Archive: Conqueror (October 29, 2013)”
Compliments
Yesterday was supposed to be a slow day. I try to leave Mondays pretty laid back so the kids can ease into the week. Instead, it was one thing after another, and I was not home for longer than 30 minutes until after my cycling class. And then, it was just one thing after anotherContinue reading “Compliments”
Never Ending Battle
Yesterday’s open call ride and the very expected result has me questioning myself today. This is not a new battle for me. Whenever I “fail” I stumble. I question. I self sabotage. I do my best to disappear from those that were witnesses to my “failure”. It is a pattern I’m working to change. ThisContinue reading “Never Ending Battle”
Open Call Ride
So today, I tried my hand at an open call audition ride to be a cycle instructor at my local Cyclebar. I did not get selected to move on. And, like I captioned above… I never expected to, So why bother? Because the thought scared me. And, I once dismissed the thought of being aContinue reading “Open Call Ride”
Job Hunt
In April I was set to start my dream job. Life intervened and we became parents instead. Months later and though parenthood is rewarding… I want more. So, I’m applying for jobs again. First attempt is to get my dream job back, and then if not… find a new dream job. I will be writingContinue reading “Job Hunt”
Parents and Children
My relationship with my parents is defined by my location. I live across the country 2,500 miles away from both of them. My mother has come to see me a handful of times. My father has yet to visit. They call occasionally, but I’ve always shouldered the burden/blessing of maintaining the relationship with my parents.Continue reading “Parents and Children”
