It’s been awhile…

I used to come here every day and share feelings, races, other hobbies and joy, etc. I still have that joy, but have definitely matured in my interests.

This process, (the process of publicly sharing what’s going on in my life) has been a delicate balance of putting my energy out there while at the same time keeping it vague enough not to expose myself too much.

It was definitely helpful when I did it every day so today I thought I would just put one more post out there and see how it felt.

Curious if people still post things on here?

Hello, lovely ❤️

I’m leveling up on skates so I can double down on the jam skate practice! I’ve heard for years that Moxi Jacks are an amazingly versatile skate. (I scoffed at the thought of getting one more pair. I have 6) But, five weeks ago, i decided to circle back to skating learn all of the tricks I skipped when I started in 2020. (I pretty much only learned how to skate backwards and do crossovers)

Today was my first day skating with Jacks and I’m so happy! They really are a completely different experience. Hopefully this will help with: dribbles, strut, c-step, crazy legs, and… (gasp) *waltz jump*

That’s my list. Nbd

Happy Skaterday!

Good morning!

I’ve gone from runner->skater->tiny home/trailer enthusiast!

Yes, I bought a vintage trailer. *Sigh*

So fun…

Hi y’all!

Caught somewhere between my running world and my skating world.

Hiiiiii!

I’m sure you’ve seen me happy before, but this might be my happiest. I am a DORK about skating. I love it so much.

Happy Friday!

Morning!

I should update here more. I’m not running much because my ankle is still floppy, but I LOVE skating! Doesn’t bother the ankle at all because of the stiff boot. That said, I’m not an “aggressive” skater but I just got outdoor wheels that allow me to try more moves. That of course translates into more wipeouts! I’m ok:) Couldn’t be happier with things.

Ok, yeahhhhh... forgot to tell y’all I sprained my ankle running upstairs in socks last week. Oopsy.

Hopefully I can start skating again next week! (This pic was at the dr’s office waiting for X-ray which revealed no fractures!)

Good morning.

In the absence of races, I am very excited to have found my new challenge! (that isn’t the least bit hampered by quarantine) I’m a grown woman who has turned her living room into a roller rink 😂

If you know me at all, you know I live for inspiration. So happy!

Good morning.

Yes, I’m still here. Thinking...

I’m a believer in writing down what you want and letting the universe deliver it. The trick is being patient (and confident) enough to know it may not happen right away, but it will happen eventually.

Missing humans so much I just waved at the FedEx guy like he was my cousin 😂

The absolute truth.

Meanwhile, back in 1997... (hello, 90’s eyebrows)

Today is my birthday! My very first quarantine birthday. Interestingly, more people have remembered my birthday this year than I can recal in the past. I guess because we all have fewer distractions right now.

I’m not a fan of the term “social distancing”. I feel closer to people all over the world now because of this shared experience. Maybe it should be called social closening with physical distance? Or just physical distancing? Silly. The things I think about!

Love y’all!

“How are you doing?”

Truthfully? I’m great. I’m accustomed to being home... a lot. Hope y’all are ok!
