Hello friends!! Happy New Year!! It’s nice to see so many of you at the gyms and yoga studios and veggie aisles these days :) Everyone’s so energized and motivated – be sure to do whatever it takes to KEEP UP WITH IT! Remember – even if you fail one day or two (or two hundred days), it doesn’t matter – it’s literally in the past. All that matters is what you do TODAY! So get back out there and try again!! A record of “1” in a row is better than a record of “none” in a row. #TRUTHBOMB ** Awkward transition ** Did I tell you my best friend and I created a new project recently? And by recently ..read more

The Bingo Sheet ?

It’s funny how you can make anything into a game. On gym days I’ve started doing this thing where after our boot camp I reward myself by grabbing a basketball and shooting around for a while, patting myself on the back for making it. But then I started feeling guilty for having fun when I’m supposed to be “working out,” so I made this arbitrary rule that I can play for however long I want, but I’m not allowed to *leave* until I make a half-court shot :) Which in itself is pretty hard of course, but then I added a twist where when I miss it I have to RUN AFTER THE BALL and try over and over an ..read more

Would You Rather… Buy Everything Online or Everything Offline Only?

My boy Nate randomly texted me this the other day and I can’t stop thinking about it… Such pros and cons either way!! Would you rather… Have unlimited money to buy things online but you can never buy anything in person (can’t go to restaurants, shops, movies, games) Or have unlimited money to buy things in person but you can never buy anything online (can’t get anything delivered, but could walk onto a car lot and buy a car with cash) ****** I immediately shot back “In person 100%!” and then had to marinate on it to make sure it was the best answer?! He quickly reminded me this means “No Amaz ..read more

What’s up y’all! Stealing this idea from The Frugal Girl who shares new things in her life every week, and thought I’d do the same as I’ve immersed myself into a LOT of things lately and kinda just want to blurt it out rather than neatly craft up individual posts… Unless you want a whole article on Pokemon?! Which I can certainly do for you!! ;) Here’s what’s been brewing lately… 1) I joined a soccer league for the first time in 10 years! Except my friend who convinced me to join it didn’t tell me the games were at 10pm at night!! AT NIGHT! Can you imagine?! I didn’t think I could do it, but ..read more

Kristy’s Early Retirement Spreadsheet

Another spreadsheet success story! I’ve been using your simplified early retirement spreadsheet now for the last 8 years. I have obviously tweaked it some to reflect our income and estimated expenses, but it still works great! I have also shared this with friends! Yes!! Brilliant! Especially that last part. As a good friend of mine likes to say, “never keep knowledge to yourself – share it!” I asked Kristy if she’d be willing to share her tweaked spreadsheet for us to gander, and she not only obliged but also gave us some juicy background on along with it :) You can find her spreadsheet he ..read more

So… I started juicing recently and now I’m OBSESSED. I don’t know why some things just click and others don’t (I’ve never been a veggie man in my life!) but here we are going into our 5th straight week now and I have yet to miss a single day without my new favorite green cocktail. IT FEELS SO GOOD!!! And I blame you, Madiha, for introducing me to it!! She wrote me this note last month and it’s completely transformed my eating habits: ***** “Hey! Please watch the documentary, Fat Sick and Nearly Dead. Part 1 and 2 on youtube. The director, joe cross, did 40 days of green juicing exclusively t ..read more

Got three random hacks for you today to save time, annoyance, and forgetfulness ;) Anyone else do these?? #1. The Trash Bag Hack You know how every time you have to change the kitchen trash bag it’s super annoying cuz you have to go digging under your sink for the box of them, and then a couple of days later you have to do it all over again? Well, at first I thought I hacked it pretty well by just pulling out 6 or 7 bags at a time and throwing those at the bottom each time saving me a little grief, but even still I got annoyed so last month I put THE ENTIRE ROLL of bags at the bottom of the c ..read more
