Crossfit

“Heels over head” has never been my jam. Point of fact – I’ve actually never dived (diven? dove?) into anything. (Well, except for Love but I’m not quite sure that counts.) Even as a little kid, the idea of doing something that would put me in the “hee …

At Crossfit yesterday, we did good mornings, Tabatas, and a 6 minute AMRAP of pull ups. If you have no idea what I’m talking about when I say things like “AMRAP,” you might want to go back in my blog (linked HERE) and scroll down to “Crossfit lingo.” b …

This is the photo you get when you put “BELLY” into the photostock search engine. Belly. It’s such a nice sounding word. Cute. Sweet. Happy. Probably comes from the holidays – even now (yes, I am in my 50s) I get together with my dad on Christmas Eve, …
