Back on this post a few of you asked for specifics on my 20 minute workout. It's also a question I get pretty frequently by email. It seems you wanna know what, exactly, I do for my weights routine, how frequently I lift etc. You crazy. The thing is, ala the We dont need no STINKIN' HOOK! post, it almost doesn't matter what *I* do. It's taken close to 43 ... Continue Reading

Four tips for finding your resistance training mojo.
About a week ago Ren Man and I ran away I went to see Joel McHale. (If you dont know J.McH I highly suggest you check out The Soup. If youre of a delicate 'dont make innuendos around me' nature I highly suggest you skip The Soup) It was a fantastic evening and, to top it all off, we spent the night away from the Tornado & had the lovely opportunity to sleep past 530a on a ...

Five reasons I still love me some Dr. Oz.
Oh people. I love me some Dr. Oz, but Ive been burned before. Allow me to elaborate. I used to HEART me some Dr. Phil. Back in the day, when he was merely an occasional guest on the Oprah Show, I was completely smitten with that man. Id Dr. Phil myself myriad times a day ("Whats the WORST that could happen?") Id find myself creating my own wacky Phil'isms ("You see, if ... Continue Reading
It’s BADMINTON time, Baby!
I yammered lovingly on Monday about how I adore our morning routine. Active play is a huge part of what I love about our trio & since we're all morning people we tend to git our PLAYouts on before school rather than after. Additionally, asolutely nothing sets me up for a better day than belly-laughing at how flipping uncoordinated I am some movement as a family.Some of our PLAYouts are ... Continue Reading
Do you make time for YOUR second wave?
Today it is eight months since the Tornado started the Garten of the Kinder. Some days it feels as though she's always been in school, but most days I still miss my sidekick. I pine (yep. dropping the p-word.) so much I had a fleeting notion we mightcould need more children up in herre. (Ill let you digest that for a moment) Beyond the fact Im older than the hills Ill be 43 ... Continue Reading
Happy birthday Dr. Seuss
(I do love me some Theodore Geisel*) All over the 'net today tributes there are. Shout outs to Seuss. From near & from far. Spoofs on the subject of green eggs & ham. Written by cooks and lovers of SPAM. I shall spare you an ode As we do that each day! The child & I As we hangout and play. We yammer 'bout Horton & Bofas & such. Because THEODORE GEISEL? We *love* ... Continue Reading
Fragmented Fila video-shoot thoughts.
We just finished the shoot & I wanted to blog about it while it's all still fresh in my mind. Im going bulleted because Im pretty damn braindead for your reading pleasure. Im almost convinced I want to own a flat iron after today. Actually I do OWN the iron (11 months now), so I guess Im almost convinced I should free it from its plastic packaging. I loved how the make-up ... Continue Reading
HAIR? check. MAKE-UP: check. Camera crew? CheckCheckCheck.
We all I remember this photo because it captures the first real make-up application I'd ever had: The final flat-ironed product turned out like this: Amazingly it all came together to produce this (please to note the hand. can you tell I LONG to launch into the Elaine Benis Thumb Dance?): You may or may not have ever seen this: The Tornado, while she possesses ...

Skip it.
(my re-found love is now always ready & waiting by the front door) I frequently lament how I dont love the cardio. I do it (for my heart and for my daughter. Im a firm believer once we become parents we forfeit the option of losing our mojo). Yet everysinglesolitaryday theres a huge internal debate that goes on before I do. You'll *never* hear me say I dont wanna hit the ... Continue Reading
**cue confetti shaped like triceps**
Subtitle: No Tornado. No cry. Ahhh People. Ive been derailed from the workouts PLAYouts over the last month or so. It has been hotter than the proverbial Mo Fo in the ATX and, quite frankly, I chose (theres that word again) to follow the Tornado's pre-K lead and do what she wanted to do. We colored (that didnt work the triceps). We painted our nails in bright circa 1980s flashy colors ... Continue Reading
