Blog Preface: There’s a point to this. I swear. A long time ago…in what feels like another life…my world fell apart. I was 10 years old…and I had just found out…in a wave of blue lights…that I had been kidnapped. My name wasn’t my name. My daddy wasn’t my dad. Nothing was real other thanContinue reading “Listen”

I had to laugh today. For probably the 100th time since this whole heart thing started….I stood up quickly…I got dizzy…I sat down even more quickly…and a coworker asked, “Aren’t you not supposed to do that?”. Yes. You are correct. I am not supposed to do that. Bad, Sheri. Bad. *smacks own hand with ruler*Continue reading “Please Excuse the Mess. Adjustments In Process.”

I’m pondering two statements that I have made in the past couple of days. I don’t add any value. I’m afraid I’m going to lose my friends. Both of these were in regards to taking a step back from the fitness portion of my life. Both are…legitimate fears…while simultaneously…completely asinine. I’m going to address theContinue reading “Nothing to Offer”

This was in my memories this morning at a rather ironic moment in time. I’ve been railing against God’s plan and begging Him to let MY will be done…to let me have the path that I want to follow instead of the one that He has for me. For someone who has so much faith,Continue reading “His Will”

Blog Preface: If you’re wondering why I’m comparing myself to a cell phone, go back one blog. Blog Preface Part Duh: I have the cardiologist’s permission to do these things. Carefully. So no yelling at the cell phone. Today I did my first “long” run for a new half marathon training program. The first timeContinue reading “Holy Shit, I’m a Nokia!!!!”

I do my best thinking when I’m walking or running. Today was no different. Today’s mental topic: Finding a new normal. So…here’s the basis of the conclusion I came to: If recreating yourself was a sport, I’d have the Olympic Gold. I am AMAZING at reinventing myself. 10 years old, world crashes. Time to makeContinue reading “Sheri v8.8 Available”

I just had to have this conversation with yet another adult, so I’m writing about it now. The “Bad”, “Annoying”, “Irritating”, <insert other adjectives here> child. We’ve all met those kids…the ones that always seem to be causing a little more trouble…being a little more rambunctious…crying more…whining more…arguing more…hiding more…whatever it is about them thatContinue reading “The “Bad” Child”

I…am a perfectionist. I know…I know…you’re wearing your shocked faces right now. “*gasp* No way! Not Sheri! She seems so easy on herself…chill and unmotivated!!” Oh…wait…none of you are doing that? Hmph. Ok, fine. No one is surprised by this. I am an all or…well…all person. I never shy away from challenges and will tryContinue reading “Meet You In The Middle”

Blog Preface: My jokes are meant to be lighthearted fun. Not jabs at anyone in particular. There are so many ways that I want to start this. So, I’m going to outline a few key points and then we’ll jump right in. I can breathe again and I’m ready to rejoin the world a littleContinue reading “I Can Breathe Again (AKA Fake News) (Aka *mfing jazz hands, beetches*)”

I…am a penguin. Seriously. I learned something in a science class a few years ago. Penguins LOOK very social. You always see pictures of tons of penguins hanging out all in one place. However, if you go to an aerial view…They don’t touch.. They’re all keeping their personal space. I literally sat in that classContinue reading “The Anxious Penguin”
