Time is a flying! Christmas is coming up quickly so I am running around like a crazy person. However I am trying to slow down and enjoy this time here at home with my family during the best time of the year. I am grateful! Now let’s get back to these China posts. It seems … More Day 323 and 324: My Last Day of Crossfit in Shanghai
Monday, December 17th Monday I worked at the office all day then went back to Chorus! I went to just pick up our CD we recorded last year but ended up staying and singing and then going to dinner with everybody. It was great! It felt good to sing again. It also felt good to … More Day 351 and 352: How Crossfit Transformed My Relationship With My Body
Saturday, December 15th Starbucks certainly knows their way to my heart. I mean I spent almost two months using their lovely (sometimes loud and crowded) shop in Shanghai as an office so of course they know how to pull me in. First it was the seasonal drinks. Nope, no pumpkin spice latte in China but … More Day 349 and 350: Weekend WODs and Winter Sunsets
Thursday, December 14th Are you in the holiday spirit yet? I am! I am! A cold front has finally graced our presence here in Florida and I am jumping for joy (and warmth). Although it looks tropical and green outside, it feels otherwise. Yesterday I worked most of the day and attended a business luncheon. … More Day 347: Missing China
Wednesday, December 12th Did you know it was 12/12/12? You probably did. I did not until we started watching the 12/12/12/ concert for Sandy relief on television. There was more rock and roll and a very scary old and skinny Mick Jagger. Yikes. I mean he still sings and moves like a young man but … More Day 346: Ancient
Sorry for the long post last night. I meant to write something short about Holly’s passing but the words and tears just kept on flowing. Writing about my little dog and how much she meant to me really helped me express my grief and put her death into perspective. Although other people have lost parents, … More Day 343: Coming Home
Tuesday, November 13th It was another strength day in Crossfit! I love those days. We did 4 sets of 2 bench presses and honestly, I was nervous. My arms are definitely the weakest part of my body and I knew I had lost a lot of strength. However I wanted to keep up with Kitt, … More Day 317 and 318: Bench Press PR and Beautiful Pollution
Omg I just drank water from the tap and didn’t die! Life in America is so… safe. Except when my mother takes me out for an unexpected 6 hour shopping marathon. Nobody is safe then. Especially my wallet. Sunday, November 11th Drinking an Americano at my favorite cafe in Shanghai. ET Cafe in Xuhui. Monday, … More Day 315 and 316: Back at Crossfit
Tuesday, November 6th After a pretty intense netball practice I was wiped out and my foot was aching. However, I wanted to go to Crossfit and get in some strength training. Well it turns out Crossfit was anything but strength training. This was both good and bad. When I walked in I saw “Speed Work” … More Day 310: Winning at Crossfit (and life)
