I got the most amazing nights sleep last night, my head hit the pillow I turned over and I was asleep. I love when that happens! I think there are times when I underestimate a good nights sleep; today is not one of those times. I do not always get a great nights sleep, when I do… Continue reading To sleep, perchance to dream

Laugh, and the world laughs with you
Music and humor, I am not sure I would survive getting fit without these two things. Music feeds my energy and humor, well hell I do not think I could do anything without a little humor. Picture this..I am running, doing what used to be my morning routine which was a brisk walk or run… Continue reading Laugh, and the world laughs with you
A walk down memory lane…no regrets just great memories
This has become my new favorite running song. I am not really sure what the composer/writer's original meaning for the song is but what it does for me is stir memories and the beat gets me moving. I have had some good times in my life and most of my younger days were spent with… Continue reading A walk down memory lane…no regrets just great memories
Make of it what you will

When I finished my first post on this Blog I ended it with telling you that I have signed up for a Half Marathon in Disney World on February 24, 2013. When I came up with the title for this Blog - "From Here to Me" - I was trying to think of a short… Continue reading THE Goal
The power of words
"If you are tired of Starting over, stop giving up." – Unknown This statement is so powerful. I read it this morning and have been thinking about it so much that I searched until I found the quote with a picture, I printed that and hung it on my wall. Life is about moving forward… Continue reading The power of words
How did I get here?
So, my first post. It will probably be boring and drawn out and contain a good bit of information most people do not care about. However, if it gets me started I will take it and find my rhythm as I go along. Does a blog really have to be one thing? Does it always… Continue reading How did I get here?
