I took a jog yesterday for the first time in months and I can honestly say it was one of the best jogs I have ever taken. Not because I made excellent time or added an extra half mile, it was because I did it without my apple watch. My watch had not been lost …
Overcome Adversity
A simple phrase with a very un-simple meaning. To overcome adversity is to triumphantly shout from the rooftops, “I won! I beat whatever was trying to take me down”. You take a step back and realize that the things which were blocking your success moved out of the way. As individuals, we can accomplish more …
Escaping Sleep
By Mrs. B Clearly, Mrs. B has been on a hiatus, plus I had a tiny bit of writer’s block. It felt like every time I wanted to share something with you guys it just didn’t seem pertinent. Some work travel, a fun-filled weekend in Auburn with friends and an awesome mini-break with my hubs …
It Feels Good To Feel Good
By Mrs. B I have always known I was a little different, but I am sure many people could say something similar. I decided sometime in my late twenties that there was no “normal” and the only way to go through life was to try and understand everyone. If the seven-year-old version of myself showed …

Blind Date
Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s Sonnet 43 was my first thought this morning upon realizing Valentine’s Day is less than a week away. “How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.” are words to which most of us are familiar. This being my first thought would suggest to many of you that I immensely enjoy …
Me, Myself, & Einstein Salsa
