{Thursday Thoughts} Religiocity: Part 2

June 20, 2013 by Amanda R DeWitt

Hello Friends!   Recently I’ve been wrestling with what I believe…religion-wise.  My faith in God and my savior will never waiver, however some of the religious details are a little fuzzy and often up for debate. I wrote my first “Religiocity” post when I was a little more emotional about moving in with Dave because…

June 19, 2013 by Amanda R DeWitt

Hello Friends! I’m happy to say I’ve kept up so far with my workout plan.  Not that it is too hard or strict….it’s just a start in the right direction!

monday moves fitness workouts

Hello Friends! So it’s been about a month since my half-marathon.  With that half-marathon there was a training plan set up by Hal Higdon.  Although I barely stuck to my mileage, strength training or cross-training, it was nice to have a plan laid out before me so that I would have some idea of what…

{Thursday Thoughts} Religiocity: Part 1

June 13, 2013 by Amanda R DeWitt

Hello Friends! I am now living with my adorable boyfriend, Dave.  While I’ve already written a post about my reasons/thoughts on this, I have still been faced with opposition, in particular, from Christians.  Who believe they know what’s right for us.  And that we don’t. ———- Early warning: these are MY opinions and feelings.  Some…

{WIAW #67} Our Very Own Fridge

June 12, 2013 by Amanda R DeWitt

Hello Friends! It’s the little things, right?  Having to share a fridge with a roommate is kind of a pain.  Since you’re not sharing money…you’re not likely to share food when you just have a roommate.  This means that you will probably have doubles of certain things…like bread, milk, eggs, salad, fruit, veggies, etc and…

{MIMM #21} Adventures in Moving

June 10, 2013 by Amanda R DeWitt

Hello Friends! So I was feeling pretty productive and patting myself on the back when I finished unpacking all of our boxes in two days AND finding a spot for almost everything.  This included all of the new gadgets we bought. We could see the floor, dishes were put away and we were even able…

Hello Friends! Welp moving is officially underway!  Who here likes moving?  Playing Tetris with all of your possessions in order to move the fewest number of boxes?

Lessons Learned

May 30, 2013 by Amanda R DeWitt

I can’t sleep tonight.  I wrote something that hurt someone’s feelings.  And I had no idea until that person commented on my blog.  I was taken aback each time someone said I was “brave” for writing what I wrote.  Even confused.  Was I brave because I was admitting I felt weak because I couldn’t make…
