…is to help people.  Honestly I love giving of my time and helping someone if I can really help them.  I had a few opportunities over the past few weeks to help people who were in need.  I loved it. The first was for Pastor Jay.  Deb called me and wanted to know if I could install a CD player [...]

I can’t believe it’s been 9 weeks since I’ve started working out again.  It doesn’t seem like it’s been that long.  I have come a long way – even from where I was when I worked out January-April.  I did take May-September off but my stamina is way up.  My intensity on my cardio is way up.  I can tell [...]

I forgot to post my update of my journey last week.  The last time I posted was two weeks ago.  Last week was ok.  Not a great week.  I missed 2 workouts and splurged once too many times.  I lost 3 pounds.  This week was better.  I still missed one work out – last night – but it was worth [...]

I wrote a post a few days ago on how my singleness hit me like a ton of bricks one night last week while I was driving home from working out.  I have had some really good discussions from it.  Both through my blog and through email – even a few in person.  So I thought I would do a [...]

God I come to you recognizing I can do nothing on my own.  Even when I try – I try knowing full well I can’t do anything aside from you.  So why do I try?  I try in my flesh because deep down I think I can do life on my own.  Deep down my will is too strong.  I [...]

Auto-tuning has become pretty big within the music world.  Especially within the hip-hop and R&B genres.  This video made me laugh pretty good. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMM0R19IisI]

Let me just throw this out as a disclaimer here: this is not directed at any certain group of people or persons.  This is just trying to let you in on what I’m dealing with – which is small potatoes compared to some things people are currently going through. Last week was a tough week for me.  I was just [...]

This week went by so fast.  I made some HORRIBLE food choices this week.  Last Saturday was my “high calorie day” – a cheat day – where I can eat whatever I want.  Well my cheat day turned into 3 days.  It was not good.  Last weekend I had: Saturday – 3 taco meal from Taco John’s and a LARGE [...]

Some people have been asking me what a typical meal looks like for me.  Or how I can eat healthy and still get full on a meal.  It’s pretty easy.  Above is a picture of a typical meal at my house.  Sometimes I do a chicken breast, veggies and yogurt.  Other times I’ll do a sandwich, fruit and yogurt.  For [...]

Because Chris from Canada will pick me as the winner to the contest on his blog.  What contest?  The one where he’s giving away a copy of Paul Baloche’s new cd “Glorious.”  I have been a fan of Baloche’s music since I was in college.  He has written some classics that will probably never fade.  His music is a lot [...]
