A little over two years ago, I went on a camping trip with my family. Stay with me here folks, it will come around to being relevant. We stayed at a pretty nice campground, with a kids' playground and a little lake and nice beach. The bugs weren't too bad and the local town (Vulcan, AB) had some fun … [Read more...]
Five Years=Forty Pounds
Can it be just five short years ago? So, so much has changed in my life since the birth of my second child that I find it nearly impossible to believe that only five years can have elapsed since that day. This, for one. Somehow my family has grown from this: to this: I and I have shrunk; … [Read more...]
Why Do I Do It?
It's been a rough month or so for me, eating-wise, that is. I've been under a fair amount of stress lately, and when I'm stressed out, I eat.
