LOW IMPACT, HIGH-INTENSITY CARDIO
I worked out today for the first time in a while. It’s kind of hard to do cardio in the apartment because we’re on the third floor and the last thing I want to do is be bouncing around on our downstairs neighbors’ ceiling. We have rude upstairs neighbors who stomp and party, so we know how it feels. And now that we have a new rug in the living room, I can hop a little bit in my sneakers and not disturb … Continue Reading »
RUGGED LIFE
Dang, January 2021 is already almost over. The speed at which time is passing is officially ridiculous. On the bright side, we are one day/month closer to retirement.

I counted that I have seven jobs (some more legit than others, but…medical editing, teaching, private tutoring, freelance medical writing, shoe flipping, IG influencing, freelance creative writing), and all that work on top of trying to prioritize home life, health, and self-care (and bouldering!) has been a little much. But I think I’ll stop worrying about … Continue Reading »
5 TRENDY HAIRCUTS I’M LOVING
Hi. It’s been a while. I’ve been busy with work and life stuff, and so many things have been put on the backburner like blogging, shopping, and going to the salon. My gray roots have grown in like crazy (luckily it’s blending kind of well with my blonde highlights), and it’s definitely approaching time for me to get my hair cut again. Today I’m talking about some trendy haircuts that I’m loving. Pixie They say a pixie cut is best for those with … Continue Reading »
