#BeReal – LISA LISTWA | hastywords
I’m visiting over at Hasty Words today to talk about what I think it means to #BeReal. And about a good pair of jeans. Not too long ago, a friend told me I was brave. I think the word she said was brave… she admired my chutzpah in posting my whole and actual weight in…

TToT – I’m Back!
Did you miss me? I was a little surprised when I looked at my last TToT and realized that I skipped two weekends in a row. TToT is not something I skip. But I did say I was taking an Internet break during the holidays and apparently I was serious. I really did take a…

Calm and In Control
I swore I wasn’t going to do this. I was not going to write an end of the year wrap-up post, or a list of my favorite books, or favorite moments of the year. I was not going to make any New Year’s resolutions (aside from the perennial one I make to stop swearing) or post any…
