Exercise

If you have read any of my past posts you will know that I normally love exercise.   Exercise has always been my happy pill.  I’ve had so many injuries over the past 3 years that exercise has gone the way of the dodo. Exercise is hard. Exercise is embarrassing–I make too many noises. I…

Good Blankin’ BYE Rough Riding 2014

2014 has been the year of constant setbacks and failure on my health and fitness front. I WIN, because even in the face of constant setbacks, I keep getting back up to go at it again, this is what I tell myself anyway. 2014 FAILS -Two years of stressors that continued to wreak havoc on…
