Fitness, food, motherhood and life at the Quarry
One of the toughest things to do when you’re active as a female is: finding a sports bra that not only does the job it’s been bought to do, but is comfortable too. If it’s not too tight, in the day and age of the 500-strap sports bra, it’s damn near impossible to get on, […]

I don’t even know who I am anymore. There. I said it. I baked. AGAIN. Like I said, I don’t know who I am. It all started with about a hundred of those little tiny raisin boxes floating around my son’s snack basket (he’s been a raisin fiend for the past month), and shifted one […]

I realized I was done with large, if not most gatherings – hosting, or attending, when a brand new jar of locally made ketchup, a gift from a friend, crashed onto my kitchen floor. Enough was enough. My mental health, having some grasp on my anxiety, was more important. It started way back, when I was a […]
Read MoreThat’s right. You read that title correct. I got another fix from Stitch Fix. They waived my fee after getting my feed back on that last fix, so I figured – why not? I can’t really call it a sweater fix, because I did get a pair of pants in the box, but the rest […]

Read MoreIt was still well over 90°F outside, with humidity percentages that made the air feel like a lead weight upon your chest, when we brought our first pumpkin of 2018 home from the store. One of our “larger” grocery stores supports our local farmers in a big way – which is pretty much one of […]
Read More“That’s so petty.” I remember in fifth grade, one day, sitting at the lunchroom table with a group of people that I was friends with at the time. The conversation, about someone in another group. Making fun of, calling that person names. Everyone chiming in something that, every other 10 year old at the table, […]
Read MoreI wrote this post a few months ago, unsure of what I’d ever do with it. I had been sitting in my cousin’s salon chair for a trim, thinking about all of the times I cut my hair for more than just the sake of cutting my hair. All of the times I cut my […]
Read MoreI’m still here. I’m still alive. Life has just caught up, and crashed into me in such a crazy way, that some days, I don’t even have time to catch my breath before the next day starts. I’m still writing. I’m a writer at heart, and that Notepad app on my phone gets put to […]
