Never give up on your ADD child!!! (Helping struggling youth with ADD)

Friday, September 22nd, 2006

See the beneath posting…I tangented from training to helping struggling youth with ADD.

When the going gets tough…

Friday, September 22nd, 2006

the tough get a routine.
It’s back to boot camp for me. Apparently, my inner coach wants more structure and organization in my day so I don’t fall off the bandwagon again.
So here I am, just after sunrise, I’ve done my meditation, Pilates, and a serious stretching routine, and I’m about to hit the trails. It’s […]

I’m back.

Thursday, September 21st, 2006

I’m watching “STICK IT” a movie about a tough girl and a comeback in gymnastics…They’re talking about how hard they’re training, and I realize it’s 9 at night and I’m just finishing my training for the day.
I’ve had a hard time writing this blog lately, or writing in general. I’ve been in a quiet, hard […]

Tally Ho! VMO!!!

Thursday, September 14th, 2006

Hi Everyone!
Well, we’re quite a ways into September, and skates still aren’t in sight. That’s okay. I’m making good progress on the healing…it’s just working out (so far) differently than expected.

Confused, but happy!

I know I keep saying it’s been a trying few weeks, but it’s been very productive…incredibly so from a learning perspective…I wouldn’t even know where to begin to share what I’ve learned about myself.
1. I go crazy without daily walks, hikes, or runs in nature…I need nature to restore my body, soul and mind.
2. I’m […]

The State of My Union

Friday, September 8th, 2006

Here’s an update of my current condition I sent to my coach this morning…
“I can see clearly now the rain is gone….
 
It’s gonna be a bright, Bright, BRIGHT, sun-shiny day!”

I went out for a sunset .75 mile hike last night. It felt great to be outside. It’s where I recharge and heal.
 
I spent a full […]

Daily Routine for the Stressed and the ADHD

Friday, September 8th, 2006

I must admit, these last few weeks have been incredibly tough (and a great learning lesson). It all started with a really minor boo-boo last month. I slipped and twisted over my stronger foot…turning it all sorts of fun shades of blues and purples, greens, and even grays!
Since then I’ve struggled. I had to stop […]

Wow! What an inspiring story!

Wednesday, September 6th, 2006

I just read the most amazing story “Fifty and Counting” by Brad Max. I’m hoping I can post it here shortly. It’s inspiring me to try something with this blog, and hopefully it’ll work. I’m going to try and start a new page here, of inspiring stories similar to Brad’s (though I doubt anyone else […]

How’s my health?

Sunday, September 3rd, 2006

Boy does time fly! I just realized yesterday it’s been 5 months since “the accident”. It’s time to tear down the above photos and get some new, positive stuff up.
While I want to show people you can succeed, no matter what, I don’t want to define myself by my injury, or anything from my past. […]

Happy Sunday Everyone!!!

Sunday, September 3rd, 2006

What a beautiful Sunday it is! I hope you’re all enjoying a beautiful day!
I’ve been on a real productivity kick the last few days. I’ve been decluttering my environment lately, and it’s helping declutter my mind.
Among other things, I’m trying to get a podcast going on here for a weekly broadcast of something or other. […]
