Chicago Public Schools made the national news today due to our $975 million deficit… yes you read that right, $975 million…. so everyone is feeling the pressure at the moment! But that’s ok, I’m [...]

Hi there! How was everyone’s weekend?
Mine was great until last night, when my poor husband realized that NBC wasn’t televising the US vs. Canada hockey game… WTF?!?! So, there was a bit of hostility in our household for a while there until we were able to catch fuzzy bits and pieces on the internet [...]

Hello, hello, hello! It’s definitely freeing only posting 2-3 times a week like I’ve been doing recently, but I miss you guys! Hopefully you have been having a good week. I was off Monday for President’s Day, but even though it was a short week I’ve been stressed out every day! Gah, no fun!!
Have you [...]

Happy President’s Day! I am lucky enough to have the day off work today, and GOSH was it lovely to sleep in and to get my workout (a 3 mile run + yoga) done early in the day so that I can relax!
Mike and I didn’t make any crazy plans for Valentine’s Day, but [...]

Today, my friends, I wanted to chat about something near and dear to my heart… sugar!!!! It’s funny because I had actually started drafting up a post last week about how I wanted to go on a no-sugar “diet”, and then I just recently found out that Ellen Degeneres announced that she was going [...]

Success!!! It feels good to finally be able to post a picture on here. I’m still having a lot of difficulty putting pix up the “normal”, easy way (apparently my Wordpress blog is out of memory??) so in the meantime I’m using Resizr.com. Thanks for bearing with me!
How is your weekend going so far? [...]

I'm a school social worker who is also a newlywed (and had a Big Fat Greek Wedding, no less!) living in Chicago. I am starting this blog to talk about the training process I will go through to prepare for the Chicago Marathon, while also raising awareness for Ceasefire, a Chicago anti-violence program.
