Curvy Girl on the Run

Happy New Year!  Well this year started with the dreaded Covid for me. I managed to avoid it for three years and it finally got me and it got me good. I’ve spent the whole first week sick in bed but grateful that I’m on the mend and feeling better.  2022 was quite a year so I thought I’d share some of the highlights with you all from each month! I’m planning to write more in 2023 and not only share on social media!  January is a pretty coldish and grayish month here in TX. Not super cold but we definitely have our dips in the temps! I typically don’t do as much in January because of this and I take the month to set my intentions for the year. I also don’t do resolutions but this past year I did host a Vision Board party for a few friends and set some goals for myself and for Curvy Girl on the Run. One of them was to try and travel somewhere once a month- or at least try out a new hotel in the area! I enjoy travel and letting everyone know what’s out there to do! January w...

What Up, friends? Well it's officially the new year! I know a lot of people make resolutions but I really don't like to do that. There's something that really eats at me when I cannot fulfill a promise that I have made-whether it is to myself or not. I have always been that way. Here's an example: I remember being in church and the pastor told us that he wanted everyone to come up to the front of the church who was going to commit to reading the Bible through at least one time that year. I didn't want to go up front because what if something happened and I wasn't able to complete this? Don't get me started on all of the church drama growing up...but it's an example from my teenage years that still holds true to this day. So, instead of resolutions, I have chosen a goal for myself to do one thing each day that makes me happy. It doesn't have to be much, it can just be something small. It doesn't matter if I repeat it throughout the year or not. ...

Recently on Instagram I was tagged to share my highlights from 2014. I considered doing this but soon realized that I have far too many good things to highlight in one square picture. Despite sickness, a death in the family or any other bad things that may have happened, I was truly blessed this year and continue to be blessed.  I was able to finish my Forty Before Forty list (I'll recap in a minute), had a milestone birthday,  we were able to do home improvement projects like new carpeting and a new front porch deck and we adopted a puppy. Let's not even mention that my husband and I both have work, my son is doing phenomenal in school and we finally got that puppy potty-trained. Now if we could only get her to stop being nosy and getting everything out and eating it! We have a roof over our heads and a car to drive. While life is most certainly not perfect, we continue to live and be blessed.  I tried to blog about most of my Forty Before Forty list, but I'l...
