My least favorite topic is politics. Politics have been prevalent in my life. I grew up in a politically active family. I have always been proud of what my family accomplished and the manner in which they did so – and I always will be. You must have very thick skin though. I don’t think that […]

Nearly Crushed by Orange Theory
July 19th, 2016 
LeeAnn Have you heard of Orange Theory? It is the new fitness rage. My sister-in-law and niece are big advocates. The family met in Philadelphia for the start of the 4th of July weekend to celebrate my nephew’s birthday. As the trip approached, my niece Sam texted me that she signed us up for the Saturday […]
The Journey Continues
July 14th, 2016 LeeAnn Five years ago, I started this blog when I was struggling. I felt that I had veered off course. Happiness had become elusive; my profession was draining me; my marriage was difficult. I was not living the life I had envisioned. Writing became an outlet for me during that time; it was both an emotional […]
Someone is in your House!
October 15th, 2015 LeeAnn Due to an injury, I had to take a week off of yoga. If you know me, you know how difficult this was for me. But I was good … and I did it. Today was to be my first day back. As is my routine, I woke up and went for a quick run. […]
Acupuncture and Me
August 2nd, 2015 LeeAnn Over the past several years, I have experimented with more holistic approaches to my health concerns from complex regional pain syndrome treatments to regular visits with nutritionists, chiropractors, and massage therapists. The one that I purposely avoided? Acupuncture. When I was in college, my roommate had an aunt (in-law, I believe) who was … out […]
A Confession
July 25th, 2015 LeeAnn Ok, this one is not going to be easy. I need to tell you something. And it is a bit embarrassing to me. Iwasonmatch.com. Phew. For exactly 16 days, 20 hours and 14 minutes. I got on it out of curiosity. I remained on it because, honestly, the attention is a bit addictive. Each night […]
What Was I Thinking?
January 11th, 2013 LeeAnn If there is one thing that I don’t have much of these days, it is time. The key for me is that I have to keep my routines in place and be extremely organized. So what in the world was I thinking when I signed up to do the Clean Program on top of everything else? […]
Tags: Finding the Humor
December 27th, 2012 LeeAnn Lately, I have been making an effort to notice the humor in my every day life. Sometimes it is a little more obvious than other times. Someone asked me if I staged this picture. All of you who have cats can laugh with me about that idea. Other times, finding the humor is a […]
Checking In…
December 20th, 2012 LeeAnn I have missed you. For some reason, posting on the blog became a bit insurmountable. The longer I was away from it, the more stressful the idea of getting back on it became. And yet here I am. It feels good to be back. As we approach the new year, I find myself thinking about […]
When the Universe Bonks You on the Head
October 26th, 2012 LeeAnn I am a recovering cynic. I still struggle with it. I have made progress though. Several years ago, a friend tried to convince me to read The Secret. I asked her about it. “It is based on this premise that if you picture yourself having something that you want, you will eventually have it. In […]
