In case the title didn't give it away--we are moving. Again. We got married in 2002 and if I count this move, we have moved TWELVE TIMES. We have moved to two different countries, bought and sold a house and rented various other places. We booked tickets from Malta to Canada on a Wednesday and flew out on Friday. In those 48 hours, we packed up all of our stuff, put it in storage and managed to ...
Waking up + Working Out with Vega
Earlier this year we discovered that Anson can't use whey protein or else his skin breaks out horribly and becomes quite painful. We started searching for other alternatives and soon found out that most plant based products taste, well, like a plant! I have used Vega products in the past and assured him that they taste delicious and not like you're eating the lawn! After trying them he definitely ...
Why I Think Everyone Needs to Visit NYC
In my opinion everyone needs to visit NYC. Of course, I love to travel, but visiting NYC just to say you've been there is not why I think everyone should go. Here are three reasons why I truly believe everyone needs to visit NYC: To get out of your bubble I've heard a lot of people say that they don't "need" to leave wherever it is they live because their city has everything they want. ...
Friday Faves: NYC Edition
Welcome to my Friday Faves: NYC Edition--aka the best of what I ate & what I did! I ate a lot (as usual) and did a lot but here are my top picks from the weekend: BEST OF WHAT I ATE Kellogg's NYC We walked out of M&M World on Thursday night and walked past this storefront. We thought it was literally just a cereal store but the girl standing outside the door said it was a restaurant! We ...
The Who, What and Why of my NYC Trip
I spent this past weekend in NYC with my amazing friends Michelle, Cathy and Carmy. This trip came about when Michelle decided to run the New Balance 5th Avenue Mile. We all jumped on board with the idea of making a girls trip out of it and the planning began. It didn't take long before we realized that NYC is expensive and we are all quite poor! Instead of dwelling on the things we wouldn't be ...
Running Through Central Park
I've been to New York City many times and my favourite place in the city is easily Central Park. The calmness of the park is such a stark contrast to the busyness of the city. Every time I have been to NYC I have wanted nothing more than to be able to explore Central Park, but I never really have been able to until this past weekend! Last Thursday I jumped into the car with Michelle, Cathy and ...
Travel Tuesday–down the street & back to school
I just got home from an amazing girls trip to New York City, but those posts will have to wait because it's back to school today for the kids! Chloe is going into grade 6 and is mostly excited about getting a locker this year. She LOVES school, but hates the actual school work part. She hopes she doesn't get a certain teacher but hopes she does get into a class with some of her friends. Chloe's ...
The workout week that wasn’t
Quite a few years ago I got into the best shape I've probably ever been in. I went to the gym faithfully, did strength training and had worked up to 10k of running. I could even see my abs! I lost some weight and was pretty dang proud of myself. Then my dad died and I started eating cookies for breakfast. I quit working out completely for months and months. Since then I've noticed a pattern ...
Thursday thoughts
I have a lot of randomness that comes into my brain & sometimes it just needs to be let out! Enjoy! I ate too many carbs today. It's basically all I ate. I also don't care because I got to have one of my favourite cookies ever. They're the lemon poppy seed ones from Brick Street Bakery just in case anyone wants to get me one sometime! My feet are sore. I need new ones. I wore my ...
Workout Wednesday
Short and sweet this week since I've already talked about my long run on the blog! I'm still trying to figure out my schedule and get up earlier to get more done! Eventually, I'll get into a groove:) Here you have it--what I did this week: Wednesday, August 17: Rest day because I kinda, sorta skipped my interval run Thursday, August 18: 5km run Friday, August 19: consistent with ...
