I'm all for dancing to the beat of your own drum, doing things you love because you love them even if they are a little weird and wearing what you want even if it doesn't match. Some of the coolest people I know are probably a little nuts on some level. Some of the stuff... Continue Reading →
Weekend Motivation 174
I know the angle you’re expecting me to take here just moments before our resolutions for the next year are set to start. But I’m not doing that today. Instead of talking about making concrete changes in the things you do we’re going deeper and thinking about if people can change overall. You might be... Continue Reading →
Resolution ideas that make sense for 2021
New Year's resolutions get a bad wrap but as long as you set specific and achievable goals then I think they can have a place in everyone's life. I’m a big believer in resolutions because I've done some pretty life-changing stuff at this time of year. 2020 should have changed your perspective on things. If... Continue Reading →

We think of fitness as an expensive endeavor both in terms of money and time. I would argue though that it is not. Not in the short term and certainly not in the long term. It’s true that you will spend more on gear, memberships and the like than you would if you do nothing,... Continue Reading →
Drinking and Driving is Alive and Well in my Town Anyway

Weekend Motivation 162
Confession time... I talk too much in a lot of situations. That also might be the understatement of the century.

How NOT to Tourist
I live in a tourist town at least in the summer months. I live here, work here and play here all year round. But we are not the most touristy of tourist destinations. Frankly I don’t know how ya’ll that live there do it! Most people that live here probably don’t have the same list... Continue Reading →
The Dangers of Shopping as a Habit
Someone messed up here this week and so ya’ll are getting some every second Wednesday content on a Sunday. Sorry! Even though the only reliable fun thing to do in 2020 so far is track packages here is why you might not want to ‘add to cart’ quite so often. I am not zero waste... Continue Reading →
