WRD: Week 20:2021 Noah Called AGAIN
Tweet Ok, for real, y’all. The rain is ridiculous. I know, it’s The Netherlands and we have the reputation for having a lot of rain, but I’m just kind of done now. I’ve lived here 26 years and I don’t recall a rainier May than this year. I could be wrong, of course, but even…
WRD: Week 8:2021 Harnessing Positive Energy
Tweet Sometimes the weeks just kind of melt into each other. That was this week. A repeat, in a way of so many other weeks. Get up. Work at home. Work out. Eat. Watch Netflix. Go to bed. Rinse. Repeat. That said, my attempts at getting out of bed earlier resulted in two morning walks.…
WRD: Week 7:2021 From Snow to Sun

WRD: Week 6:2021 Down Time

2020 – Let’s start Fresh, shall we?
Tweet Happy New Year my friends! We made it! I’m hopeful for a better year all the while knowing that time continues and I’m still the same person. No Goals, No Resolutions I know it’s that time of year again when we all make goals, sometimes small, sometimes big, hairy ones. That won’t be me.…

Time to reset
Tweet I’m back from Chicago and while I had an amazing time it’s time to get back to a “normal” routine. I’ve already been off a routine since the middle of August and I’m really missing it. I still can’t run until January, but I can do other things; I’m just not doing much… One…
WRD: Week 29 And I’m spent
Tweet This past week was exhausting and everything kind of got adjusted along the way. I’m having a lot of trouble with sleeping (what’s new) and Sunday night was horrendous. I had to go back to work on Monday with about 4 hours of sleep and let me tell you it was FULL ON. No…
