Working Out: Week 36 {A full week of crossfit workouts}

Time to share my how I have been working out for the past week!

Natural fire ant bite remedies

Yesterday, I was setting up the boys’ new playhouse, and I felt a sting on my toe. I didn’t think I’d need to  treat a fire ant bite from it. Now, I know better than to walk out into our grass after a heavy rain without shoes…but I didn’t think. And I was barefoot. I…

Unlike my 9-5 counterparts, I don’t ever really get to “leave” the “office.” Between my mommy job and my virtual assistant job, it’s critically important that I manage my time well.

I have a love affair with eggs-especially when it involves quiche. There’s just something about the flaky crust…but wait. I can’t really have crust anymore. Gluten free and all.

Working Out: Week 35

Time to share my how I have been working out for the past week!

I never thought I’d be happy that it’s dropped 30 degrees overnight and is raining…but I am. Because today I have crossfit…which means lots of sweat, and I’m sure that the cooler temperatures will be welcome. Last week I made all but one of my workouts. And I think that skipping a workout to have…
