Last night, caught up on back episodes of The Amazing Race in anticipation of the finale – then didn’t watch it (don’t tell me! I’ll be watching it tonight.) As always, my biggest Tip is: READ THE CLUE! Team “Brenchel” really messed up – actually read the clue OUT LOUD saying that they had to […]

May 13 – Day 250!
Sometimes, things just snowball 😉 I used to have a great assistant, Chris, at the beginning of having my own law firm. (She, VERY SADLY, retired once she was of age to get social security – still miss her!) She had worked at my Big City Law Firm, and unfortunately they’d done a few stupid […]
April 24 (Day 231) – REMEMBER THIS when things go sideways…
Haven’t written in a while. Things are all basically the same ole’ same ole’ – Crossfit, work, a little yoga, etc. We went to Calistoga which was fun, planning our trip to Vancouver Island, etc. One new thing is I started Archery lessons last week – I am NOT VERY GOOD but it feels awesome. […]
April 16 (Day 223) – catching up.
Too much going on to blog, do my GiveIt100 videos, etc. Well, maybe not too much going on – but this thyroid stuff is knocking me for a loop. Can only do one or two things in a day (versus my usual 12,000) and I just have to lie down. It’s so weird. Yesterday, H […]
April 11 (Day 218) – be vewy vewy qwiet…
So, if you’re ever my Crossfit coach, and I ever just stop moving, best not to bark at me to keep going. (Even a nice bark, Coach Bo.) Because it means I’m trying to stay very, very quiet so I won’t throw up. I’ve heard about this “work so hard I threw up” syndrome from […]
April 9 (Day 216) – erg – erg!
Ok so yesterday I had a ton of stuff to do (today, too actually), so I didn’t get to the box. I went to my chiropractor and the only time he could see me was right in the sweet spot of when I could work out. Luckily, he’s right down the road from the box, […]
April 7 (Day 214) – ouch.
So, the WOD for today was: Part A: 8 minutes straight of “kipping practice.” Part B: Front squats, 8 x (20 secs on 40 sec rest) Part C: Helen = 3 x (400 run, 21 KBS @ 1 pood, 12 pullups) I wound up being late because not only did I hit the “crazy SUV […]
April 4 (Day 211) – Update on yesterday . . .
FRIDAY WOD (today): Part A: 10 Min EMOM 3 Back Squat 120/85KG – no can do this weight. I back squat to a box, think I can do 10k (orange bar) MAYBE 15k (red) 4 Burpee Part B: “Jack” 20 Min AMRAP 10 Push Press 52/35KG – this is 15k for me 10 KBS 1.5/1P – […]
April 3 (Day 210) – feeling better . . .
Okay, SO! I’ve discovered (duh) that the deal with me is that I get all “beat up on myself” when I haven’t been able to get out there and work out. Which is REALLY ridiculous to even TYPE (for me) since I (as per my last blog post) really AM the girl who had her […]
April 1 (Day 208) – feeling kinda low . . .
So, as you (the mythical you, since “you” really means “me”) can see, I haven’t blogged in a while. I find that I’m often spinning plates – and then all the plates crash to the ground. H calls me a “gadget freak” and that’s somewhat true. Have you seen the movie Tin Cup? In it, […]
