What Fitness Means to Me

You’ve seen them shuffling down the street. Fragile old men and women who need canes or walkers to help them move because they’re likely to tip over at any second. About 10 years ago I realized I was turning into one. In my generation kids were expected to spend a lot of time outside, so I was in the habit of being active. Unlike nowadays, youth sports were limited but our high school ... Read More »

99 Problems | WIRL Project

I’ve Got 99 Problems, And Now You’re One.

Today I was texting an old pal of mine asking how summer was going and how he was doing. Our conversation was sweet and innocent until we got into talking about the Charleston shooting. He told me that what had happened was sad, and I agreed, but I also said that that is a part of life. People live and people die. Then he got testy, telling me that life isn’t killing innocent people. Obvious... Read More »

I Chose to Love

Please Help Me Not To Look Like An Umpa Lumpa!

  Ok so you want a nice tan glow, but everyone is telling you to stay out of the sun.  “It will give you wrinkles! You will get skin cancer!”  Yes I agree with their advice!  But we can get that sun-kissed glow without the sun or tanning bed – please people – get out of the tanning beds!   All those self tanners 10 years ago gave the future of self tanners a bad rap.  ...

My Skin Won’t Stop Me

My Skin Won’t Stop Me

  My MOLE is only skin deep. My skin won’t stop me because it does not define me or who I am. As a child growing up, we all saw witches in the movies. They were old, ugly women with long hair and a GIANT MOLE, most of the time, on their nose or somewhere on their face. Or we all laughed seeing Austin Powers in Goldmemeber making fun of Fred Savage‘s character “the mole”... Read More »
