Jump to VideoYou know that saying…. “Do as I say, not as I do?” Well, that just about sums up our Colorado trip. I had full intention on taking time off from work projects to focus on getting a little rest and being a good Sherpa wife to the Kiwi. But what I realized is that I have a hard time saying no, even when I'm fully aware that I need to. In my ...
Jump to VideoA few weeks ago I wrote a guest post on Jill’s blog about my go-to “bonus” supplements for gut health. These are supplements that are extra nourishing to me for maintaining gut health, my gut health. Do I need them daily? Probably not, but I do enjoy rotating them in my diet and the kiwi’s diet. The EXTRA’s. Note: I’m not a physician, these ...
Jump to VideoWelcome Marvelous Monday! I think I should start off by explaining last week’s RESTING more than a day post. Yes, I closed comments for that post so that we could all rest. But I also did it because I knew I would want to respond to comments and engage in good conversation if I left them open. And to be honest, I had enough on my plate last ...
Jump to VideoIt’s early. I’m up. I’m always up early. I like my “coffee time and reading” before the day starts. But this week I’m liking it even more. It’s rest week. Not day, week. Actually 2 weeks for the Kiwi. That means there is less rush in the morning. That means I only teach one class at the gym. That means there’s more time to walk the dog and ...
Jump to VideoAs I sit here typing this post, but Husband is enjoying a coffee date with a friend. A rarity he gets to enjoy during the season. Usually (during training/race season) this time of day is spent on his bike outside followed up by a PM run, etc. But since he's enjoying his off-season, he can take advantage of mid afternoon coffee dates. And ...
Jump to VideoWell, I’m back home. Yes, home sweet home. The past 4 days were spent relaxing with my momma in Florida. A little getaway for my 30th (which is actually this weekend). And my kiwi Cotter gets home from France this week too. I’m excited! But that also means we go back to reality. Back to a busy work schedule. Back to living paycheck by ...
Jump to VideoWelcome to a little Food for thought Wednesday. I could sit here and tell you about all the new food finds and summer meals we’ve been eating lately. I could tell you about my new favorite NEW ZEALAND Sauvignon Blanc. I could tell you about my recent Purely Twins Recipe I made and am obsessed with. Plantain bread with butter on top is ...
Jump to VideoWe all know what breakfast is, am I right? It literally means to “break the fast.” So clever, eh? But really. Breaking a fast from a night’s rest. Feeding our body and fueling it for the day. In the Cotter house, we like to break the fast a little different each day. I know I know, some people have their go to breakfasts’ each and every ...
Jump to VideoThis was my dog yesterday. Plans to lounge and rest. She’s smart! This was me. Don’t mind the shirt. I actually love it but disagree with it. I do need an off season. It makes me stronger in the end. Yesterday was an off day. I needed a rest day physically. Today my body is feeling so much better for it. But my brain is still a bit ...
